    I mean they are all admittedly concerned about Project 2025 and tbh I think a second Trump term will be worse than the first.

      Basically, everything The Heritage Foundation has been pushing for for decades is lined up to happen via a reclassification of federal positions and an internal purge of the executive bureaucracy. They have a shortlist of thousands of people ready to be appointed and start working on their agenda. Just really shifting into overdrive on the fascist rhetoric and policy.

        At the rate Biden is adopting Trump policy, he'll purge them himself anyway

      Gotta be real, I have no idea what project 2025 is other than the next wave of ehstever libs are scared of.

        Basically, Trump didn't accomplish anything in his first term because he doesn't know how government works, he didn't know who to hire, and he's personally difficult to work with. So the Federalist Society and a bunch of other chud think tanks wrote it all down as a step by step list for him.

                  Don't call me cute you chauvinsitic white supremacist condescending patronizing piece of shit. I know more than you so don't call me cute. I know it'll EFFECT my life to some extent maybe, we do march in lockstep behind the states but here's the thing dickweed, don't call me cute. The war of 1812 rings in my heart. Don't call me cute, because your attempts to sexually dominate verbally don't make me wrong, just call me a bitch next time and get your misogynistic homophonic out on the open. Don't call me cute. Call me the f slur instead. It means the same but you'd get your commented deleted. So who's the weak person now? Don't call me xute

          I think he accomplished a lot. he got 3 people on the supreme court and got roe vs wade overturned, for one. as well as all the other fucked up stuff the court has been doing lately. appointed a ton of fascist federal judges. and tons of other things that I dint feel like googling.

        It really sounds like the liberals realized to some extent that the Republicans actually mean to wield power and will use elected office to entrench power so the next time They Win they're gonna do A Bunch of That but instead of like also doing that to fuck them out of power while the democrats are in office they're doing nothing but telling you we gotta VOTE to stop it. Which means EVERY ELECTION is gonna be like this UNTIL WE'RE DEAD because this project 2025 shit is literally just "what the republicans are gonna do next time they're in power"

          I'm sure they've stated how they would do anything different in a measurable way

        Some big plan that will make America a “dictatorship” idk a lot about it either, but it’s basically more of what the Supreme Court is already doing.

          It set off my liberal conspiracy alarm and I ignored it. My guess was that it'd be some technocratic fantasy about Trump doing the same thing either party has been shown to do. I couldn't imagine voting for either of these creeps let alone carrying water for them. Inhad this game figured out at age 9 when the 2000 election happened. It's not hard to figure out if you operate within the easily achievable framework that it's all bullshit

        The Project 2025 document outlines four main aims: restore the family as the centrepiece of American life; dismantle the administrative state; defend the nation’s sovereignty and borders; and secure God-given individual rights to live freely.

        Lots of whistles and notably it also plans to end sustainable energy funding and go all-in on gas and coal, and end diversity laws to make it much easier to discriminate against people.

            No, DNC has a demonstrably better record on sustainable energy, LGBT rights, and women's rights. You are completely removed from reality if you genuine believe what you just said.

            I'm my experience saying anything true and not negative about Democrats means general cult-ish brainrot is going to come after me for being pro-genocide and supporting Biden. I still don't support genocide or Biden. I don't feel like I need to divorce myself from reality to explain why Democrats and Biden are bad.

      I've read a little about Project 2025 (I don't follow this stuff closely) and it seems bad. But how realistic is it? Aren't there always frimge groups with bad/extremist ideas?
