It's rainy.

It's about 40 degrees out in Portland.

I'm like, who's gonna show up for a naked bike ride?

Ten minutes beforehand, a couple people walk out in...

in full Portland, and... I see a dong, then a second dong, then a third dong.

And within, like, ten minutes, suddenly, there's hundreds of naked people.

Hundreds turns into almost 1,000 people, most of them without clothes on, cheering, supporting.

And the idea behind this protest was the Donald Trump administration is trying to frame what's happening in Portland as a bunch of aggressive agitators starting shit outside an ICE facility.

But there were so many people there

were so upset by this narrative and so upset by the things that they were hearing was going on inside that facility that they decided to do the most embarrassing thing possible in the worst possible conditions and be naked to show that they have absolutely nothing to hide.

And in doing that, I spent a couple hours with folks.

There was joy.

There was energy.

Because people weren't going to become apathetic about it.

In fact, they found, like, humor and joy in it.

And what you see outside of that ICE facility is people organically using humor and joy as a way to show an image of peace and life outside of the cruelty that Donald Trump wants to show you.

Is that winning right now?

It's fighting right now.

I think what you need, apathy, is all that administration wants right now.

And it's so easy to become apathetic by all of the chaos that is out there.
