Someone brought a guillotine to a city council meeting in Salem, Oregon on July 27, 2026. Not a sign shaped like one. Not a drawing. According to community accounts and social media posts, an actual guillotine structure appeared at the protest outside Loucks Auditorium, where hundreds of residents had gathered to oppose a proposed multi-billion-dollar AI data center. Company representatives reportedly assessed the scene and left, citing safety concerns — though that detail hasn’t appeared in formal news coverage or official minutes.
This is really shitty reporting.
It doesn’t mention anywhere that the guillotine was not functional. They make it sound like it could have been used. It was a prop.
Sounds more like a shitty resistance. You can’t behead the overlords with a prop.
