I read Project 2025 as both a scare tactic and continuation of existing policy. If so, then yeah, it only exists in the media as a whip to get voters to show up for them. There was no material policy opposition.
All the research I've done on Project 2025 has led me to the conclusion that it doesn't exist. Not because people aren't trying to push these things but because as the policy exists I can't imagine who benefits from it. Ban social security, medicaid and AFC and all you have are a bunch of pissed off poor and old people. Federally ban abortion and all kinds of maternity benefits, then the situation doesn't really change, and then some of the shit is just frivilous. A porn ban? A video game ban? There'll be riots in the streets.
It really is absurd, it's just "evil for evil's sake" saturday morning cartoon villainy. I'm sure most republicans want to get rid of basic human rights as much as possible, but they do so because they profit off of it, not because they just like being evil. I guess it is the end result of Marvel movie brain and its consequences.
Biden has always been against abortion, social security and all semblance of state welfare programs, so nothing new there.
I do support the porn and video game ban, though as part of a larger grass-touching program. Any accelerationism that comes out of that is a bonus. ; )
Which means Project 2025 was actually a liberal agenda

That's all I'm getting at. Even the most evil political decisions have some kind of monetary gain behind them, there's no money in civil unrest.
