According to these anarchists, they want “racial-justice, anti-fascist, anarchist, youth liberation, etc”, and “Green New Deal, defunding police, Medicare For All”. They also talk about “American imperialism” and “American empire”, especially in regards to military bases, bombings, and drone strikes – what would a US without its “empire” look like to them, something like the Zapatistas over a huge area?
One Twitter post (also by an anarchist) said that this riot is due to Democratic officials in Portland evicting homeless people during the pandemic.

I agree. Otherwise, we should cut aside a piece of land to stuff the anarchists into as their own commune, so they will leave everybody else alone. They are only useful in keeping out NeoNazis and Proud Boys, who also flock to Portland and riot – these violent right-wingers are why these anarchists show up.
However, this will anger more people on Twitter, their commie and anarchist friends, and spark more riots. Especially among some Black Americans, who see attempts to stop anarchist riots as “US fascism” because they won’t get their leftist government since “Biden is a war criminal/a corporate shill”.
(I’ve noticed that a lot of Black Americans and Native Americans, especially those on Twitter, tend to support leftist beliefs because they seem to be more effective in forcing society to stop abusing them; whereas right-wingers tend to look down on Blacks, support rich people (who still fail to help poorer non-Whites), or fail to change society for their interests. Especially Marxism and anarchism, because they might overthrow and threaten the “oppressive” US government)
