Of course nobody is going to do that. This is Seattle, there is no last stand, there is no self-immolation, nothing dramatic is going to happen, just larping.
Look, everyone's already leaving Cal Anderson Park.
Most tents in the park were occupied by normal, transient homeless - Seattle has a huge homeless crisis, one of the worst on the West Coast, for lots of nuanced reasons. There are tent cities around the city, and under I5 it's just a big homeless city. There are local ordinances protecting camping in Seattle and decriminalizing drug use while harsher penalties exist in surrounding municipalities, like rich-rich-rich Bellevue and rich-rich-rich Redmond. So homeless people come to Seattle and hang around Downtown and U District and Capitol Hill.
CHAZ was a Bat-signal screaming "block party/free soup kitchen" for homeless folks. These people usually have nothing to do other than get high and wander the city. Now that the protests are settling down, the homeless are just trekking over to Seattle Center. There is nothing new about the homeless camping there, there even was a tent mansion that the city couldn't clean up:

Sure, there are protestors planning to stay in front of the East Precinct, but CHAZ got the same thing that Seattle block parties get. Folklife, Fremont Fair, UD Street Fair, all of them get lots of homeless and drug-addicted people showing up. But those other corporate and city sponsored events know how to handle the problems that come with a free, come-one-come-all street party. CHAZ block-party had no experience, and it was worse when come-one-come-all meant except police.
Daytime block party. Nighttime homeless campground. Just a few blocks in a quirky neighborhood where no large Seattle companies even have a presence - nowhere close to occupying the city or impacting the Seattle's downtown core or anything. There isn't even any large buildings in Capitol Hill, it's all 4 or 5 floor brick apartments and nightlife. Starbucks is still serving coffee worldwide, Amazon is still delivering packages worldwide, nothing happened.
Enjoy the laughs, farmers, especially ones all mad and scared and writing a bunch about Stalin and communists - just laugh. They're leaving and CHAZ is petering out and whether or not you believe in systemic racism and BLM and regardless of which side you're on, nothing happened.
