I have repeated this many times, “The Devil doesn't like to be mocked, therefore, he must be mocked”. This is non-violent (peaceful) protest. It stings and offends tyrants, fascists, the powers that be, police, bullies, goons, and other “authoritarians”, and Repukes.
The world sees this and laughs at *rump. I do not know if this has been seen on teevee newscasts, it has been shown by comics. Television comedians (especially Colbert, Kimmel, and the troupe on the Daily Show) have presented the truth that straight newscasts will not show. The straight newscasts will broadcast the lies told by *rump and his minions complete, but the television jesters will broadcast reality.
Orange Caligula surrounded by his toadies & media has said war ravaged Portland, a city without stores, or stores with wood instead of glass windows, a city without sewers, and inanities easily disproved by camera. The callow, feckless, cowards about him do not contradict him. Fox and other fascist teevee show film from other protests, some from other countries, and *rump says he has seen what is going on now in Portland, Chicago, and everywhere else that votes for Democrats.
Why this first frogman will become an icon is he resembles so many before him: the man with plastic bags holding up a line of tanks in the Chinese capital, the young man who placed carnations inside M14 rifles held by soldiers, the young woman with a daisy in front of a line of national guard with bayoneted rifles. Those with power look ridiculous. The Portland Frogs carry no weapons, *rump's stormtroopers have gas masks, bulletproof armor, helmets, and other paraphernalia.
Local teevee has shown live fascism in Portland on film [CLICK]. A female clarinetist is pummeled, breaking her instrument while she plays with her group the Ghostbusters' theme. Peaceful protestors will be randomly attacked and abducted and sent out of state, because a few years ago people in the city protested the murder of George Floyd.
This wee essay began with the title “conservative = fascist”. That was before Portland. Still it is true, and all the language (the propaganda) the Repukes (*rump in chief) substitute false words for reality. In America the word conservative is the false substitute for fascist.

postscriptum: Peaceful protestors always face some danger. Seth Todd, the original Portland Frog, has been doing this nightly. Cops/goons can always be petty, vindictive, and violent at any moment. On October 2nd, one such goon pepper sprayed his air vent hole.
A part of this militarisation of the streets is to provoke people into action that trumpsters will use to justify more severe measures, and brutality [you may say my words are inflated invective, but compare that to what *rump and his minions say], and give excuse to call for martial law, and cancel elections. Stephen Miller has put these thoughts into *rump's head. *rump and Hegseth want these civil excursions to be training exercises for the Department of War, and they still demand a Nobel Peace Prize. So yeah, there may be killing to come. The invasion of the Capitol on 6 January 2025 was a prelude.
