    The left has been telling them to violently riot against poverty, death, genocide and they told us it was too extreme and a fairytale.

    And in the end they do it because orange man is uncouth

      Against your own family no less. Who in the actual fuck will even remotely consider that?

      trans people won't even do that, and they're the ones being marked for genocide by the government

        Speak for yourself? There's nothing special about being blood related. I would absolutely do it, if I had any practical reason to, which I do not, would be a horrible decision. My family never loved me, after all, so I naturally am not inclined to extend them any special status or care.

        people fought and killed their family members in the last civil war in the US. and in every civil war ever.

        I will here reference lyrics from the song "we want freedom" by dead prez:

        Yeah, yeah Imagine havin' no runnin' water to drink Chemicals contaminate the pipes leadin' to your sink Just think, if the grocery stores close they doors And they saturate the streets with tanks and start martial law Would you be ready for civil war Could you take the life of somebody you know, Or have feelings for if necessary? I got cousins in the military But far as I'm concerned they died, when they registered

        Politics is not historical or materialist. it is a set of coordinates in an abstract space of n-dimensions. I will ask everyone to fill out their apology form to idealism

      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.

          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.

            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"

          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?

      They weren't prepared in 2020. Now they're extra prepared with Project 2025. They were scrambling for bullets in 2020, now they'll have a fully armed batallion if Trump is elected in 2025. Not only does he not have to worry about getting reelected and thereby has the freedom to do as he pleases (and now BONUS, he can't be held accountable for any laws he breaks while in office), but Project 2025 is paving the way to keep him in office indefinitely.

      I don't want to live in Gilead.

        He hasn't been held accountable for anything

        Anyway Project 2025 is just an extension of Biden's already in place policies

    Ignoring the ethics of this proposal.

    Do you really think the tiny handful of Liberals willing to commit homicide against people they know personally for the sake of putting a slightly less awful POTUS in office is big enough to swing even the tightest of elections? Especially when you take the electoral college into consideration...

    This is worse than advocating adventurism, this is Lib adventurism.
