None of this surprises me. Having lived in Portland for only one year in 1978 I sensed on arriving it was a nanny state. I couldn't wait to escape back to the mideast and normal values. Today Portland looks a lot like the cesspool of Washington and I wonder if there is a race to the gutter.
1978? Ha! We lived in Portland Area from 1976 to 2020. Hatred chased us away from the dream house we built in West Linn in 1988. We moved to our beach house on the Long Beach Peninsula, WA, which is purple. BUT, the State of Washington is Marxist.

I was fortunate enough to escape in time!

The “in your face” tactics of angry people purposely meaning to destroy unity are exhibited in places that I thought were family friendly. https://www.idahostatesman.com/news/local/community/boise/article305876781.html
Disgusting. I heard about the asinine pride flag now flying next to US and Idaho flags. Disgusting.
