This is a good point. I'd be remiss not to add, as a Spokane person, that the Fuck Seattle Strategy will fuck you, the implied audience of the strategy, too. There are at least two ways that FSS will fuck you over... https://twitter.com/GoldyHA/status/1286122849741103104
For one it will get you the most feckless leadership. Fuck Seattle Strategists aren't accountable to your well-being, they're accountable to making sure that you wanna Fuck Seattle even more. U might get an abortion ban hero bill 1x a session. That's it https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2019/mar/31/spin-control-recent-proposal-to-ban-abortion-is-a-/
Like seriously, the Fuck Seattle Strategist gets nothing whatsoever done for his own people. He doesn't have to as long as he's keeping the base fired up. https://www.khq.com/news/khq-investigates-how-effective-is-rep-matt-shea-as-a/article_6c358dd4-df22-11e9-8062-2b69ae2ec0e0.html
Moving on from how this gets you terrible governance, the Fuck Seattle Strategy has a corollary which is the We Are Not Seattle Strategy. Whenever you say, hm, maybe we could change some things, Fuck Seattle Strategists accuse YOU of being Seattle. https://www.inlander.com/spokane/nadine-woodward-is-running-for-mayor-on-platform-of-spokane-solutions-but-doesnt-yet-have-any/Content?oid=17194806
Now this can be simply annoying and regressive and obstructionist, and destroy your quality of life, like the fact that Seattle has had a Just Cause eviction law since before I was born but we can't have one because We Are Not Seattle. OR. It can get really scary.
Once you're defined as the internal enemy, let's say the Seattle Within, Fuck Seattle Strategists might decide they need to take some drastic measures. Because after all We Are Not Seattle. Politics becomes war. https://mynorthwest.com/1485280/rep-matt-shea-calls-for-resignation/
Like... War on a biblical basis, you might say https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/5026577-Biblical-Basis-for-War.html
So what do you do if you're the target of a Fuck Seattle Strategy? I actually suggest you make sweet love to Seattle 
don't let the Fuck Seattle Strategy fuck you over!
don't let the Fuck Seattle Strategy fuck you over!
