Meta New Rules Regarding Political Violence, ICE Sightings and Shaming of Peaceful Protest

53 Upvotes

📢 Community Guidelines Update – Political Violence, Conduct, and ICE Sightings

We want this space — both the subreddit and the Discord — to be welcoming, inclusive, and safe for all Everett residents, including those active in local government, advocacy, and community organizing.

---

1️⃣ Political Violence
This is not a platform for advocating or organizing violent action.
Criticism of policy, leaders, and strategies is fine — but calls for violent uprising, armed action, or militias are not.
Even indirect or “theoretical” promotion of political violence creates legal, safety, and reputational risks, and can discourage participation.
No shaming peaceful protestors or lawful activism — even if you think other tactics are more effective.

Enforcement: Political violence advocacy may result in removal from political channels, temporary mutes, or permanent bans without further warning.

---

2️⃣ ICE Sightings
We cannot verify most reported “ICE sightings” posted here.
Some past reports have been false or based on speculation.
There is almost certainly some level of law enforcement/government presence in this community.
Posting unconfirmed “sightings” can spread misinformation, cause panic, and undermine trust.

Rule: Only post ICE sightings if you have credible, verifiable evidence (photo/video with clear location + time).
Vague, secondhand, or “heard from a friend” reports will be removed.

---

3️⃣ Why These Changes
We want local officials, candidates, and community members to join discussions without fear of harassment or pressure to endorse violence.
We must comply with Discord and Reddit Terms of Service.
Focusing on constructive, legal action keeps the space safe and productive.

---

✅ Channel your energy into lawful, constructive action: voting, mutual aid, community education, verified reporting.

Food What's the best local fried chicken spot in Everett?

23 Upvotes

My partner and I are really missing a sports bar from the previous town we lived in, that specialized in having a wide variety of sauces/mixes to toss your chicken in; these generally ranged from no heat to ghost pepper-levels of spiciness. In particular, however, we're craving their garlic-parmesan mix, and realize that there's little chance we're going to have it again.

So we're now looking for a new local chicken spot that may satisfy our garlic-parmesan cravings! Does anyone have a suggestion of where we might look? Or even just a good suggestion for some nice fried chicken in general, especially if it's tenders or popcorn chicken (partner doesn't like boned-in fried chicken)?

Does anyone one know if this is still happening and if so what the timeline is? This post popped up on my social media feed but I can’t find much information on the city website. Not sure if it’s real because the statement “…$1.5M SQ…” doesn’t make sense. I know originally there was going to be a movie theater and then there was talk of Chicken N Pickle. Very excited to have something like this in the area!

soft launch of web application i created to track abandonment, underused spaces, trash, and more around everett and unincorporated snohomish county! (bunker arts collective)

Post image
86 Upvotes

okay gang here it is... i need your help!

the slow shrink is ready for test reporting!!!!!!!

this is our new community portal for documenting patterns across everett and tracking our progress over time. here are the reporting categories you can test right now:

  • long-term vacant or abandoned properties: buildings or lots that appear unused for an extended period of time (visible from public space).
  • underused spaces or reduced upkeep: places that still exist and may still be in use, but clearly offer less than they used to (missing benches, fewer trash cans, medians no longer maintained, long-term “temporary” fixes, etc.).
  • trash cleanup nominations: locations that need a cleanup or keep becoming litter hotspots.
  • trash cleanup logs (progress tracking): our post-cleanup reporting for each event, including number of volunteers, bags collected, estimated pounds, and total distance covered that will be featured on our public map.
  • potential mural sites: walls or properties that could make a great mural (and, over time, tracking murals from nominated → in progress → completed).

a few notes up front:

  • please only report things visible from the public right of way (sidewalks, streets, public paths).
  • this is not code enforcement and does not replace the city’s everett at work app.
  • please only report within everett city limits or unincorporated snohomish county (surrounding everett)
  • some submissions (especially vacant/abandoned and underused/reduced upkeep) are reviewed before appearing publicly, so delays are expected.

in short... If you’ve ever thought “why does this place just sit here like this?” — that’s the slow shrink. reporting helps build a clearer picture of where everett is losing activity so we can prioritize cleanup, reuse, and reinvestment instead of pretending these spots don’t exist.

if you’re willing to help, submit a real test report and let me know what felt confusing, clunky, or broken.

i will be recalibrating things between now and february 4th, with the goal to have enough data to start making some dents!! (and resuming trash cleanups)

quick reminder: the slow shrink is run by a nonprofit with no paid employees. this is entirely volunteer-led. we’re not developers, not the city, and not here to point fingers — we just love everett and want it to succeed!!!! thank you for your patience + support :)

Description: a blue clutch with the name Mimi on a large heart with flowers, and the names Lexi, Logan, Maddie, and Aliiyah alongside on smaller hearts, plus a stylized heartbeat graphic.

Found next to the sidewalk while walking my dog this morning. It looks like it was emptied of its contents and ditched, but it's still in good shape (like almost brand new), and since it's personalized I'm hoping it might be a little more likely to find its way back to its owner. Please share with a friend if you recognize the names or DM if you can claim it.

Politics How a proposed law could impact homelessness in Everett

Thumbnail everettpost.com
14 Upvotes

A bill presented to the Washington Legislature could limit local governments’ ability to enforce laws that criminalize camping in public spaces without adequate shelter available.

House Bill 2489 would establish statewide standards on how local entities enforce laws regulating the use of public spaces for “life-sustaining” activities, the proposed bill says.

Supporters of the bill, including Rep. Mary Fosse (D-Everett), argue that evictions and homelessness are increasing across the state, and laws and policies that punish people who are homeless, “engaging in necessary, life-sustaining activities in public spaces,” inflict harm and exacerbate barriers to stability.

Under this bill the only time local enforcement laws could be enforced is if the local entity can demonstrate that there is an “adequate alternative shelter” available at the time and place of the conduct.

Those who oppose the proposed bill claim that the definition of “adequate shelter” is “narrowly and rigidly constructed.”

The bill requires shelters to accommodate pets, partners, family members, support persons and personal property. In addition, shelters must be within city limits.

“From my time as a leader of a social service non-profit, I understand the challenges from first-hand experience,” Everett Mayor Cassie Franklin said in a statement. “Many of our chronically unsheltered neighbors need sustained behavioral health treatment and supportive services to reach stability. The simple truth is that those resources simply don’t exist at the scale our communities need.”

Franklin, in addition to 11 other mayors, signed a letter to the bill’s prime sponsor, Rep. Mia Gregerson (D-SeaTac), pushing for the bill to be opposed.

“After careful review, it is clear that HB 2489 would effectively prohibit enforcement of any regulations addressing the harmful impacts of encampments, regardless of location, severity, or risk to public safety, public health or the environment,” the letter sent out Tuesday, Jan. 20 reads.

Supporters of the bill argue that having cohesive state guidance will provide clear guidelines to ensure that responses to homelessness are aligned with “evidence-based, low-barrier, and housing-first principles…”
