Project 2025 seems to have 3 groups.
- Those that are terrified about it.
- Those that would be terrified if they knew more about it.
- Those that think it won’t affect them or anyone they care about. (See leopards ate my face party)
and a big issue is how many people from group 2 immediately move into group 3 when they are told about it
You forgot about group 4: The people who really want it to happen.
I haven’t mentioned Project 2025 to my parents or my siblings because it is the culmination of everything they’ve been told they want since they voted for Reagan. It would make them vote harder. So yeah, you’re right.
Too bad we can’t actually talk about what should happen due to community censorship.
Here you are, saying things… 🤷♂️
I’ve said nothing.
Try saying something then?
I wouldn’t want to break any rules.
Which rules? Rules 1-7 are only about posts and I’m sure you could make your point without using a url shortener.
If you’re being cryptic about the url shortener, I’m afraid it went over my head.
No, I was speculating on what rule you were thinking you would be breaking.
Are we not currently in an era of mass incarceration? It looks like currently the US is 6th in the world for incarceration rate and 1st in the world for total number of prisoners.
It actually used to be worse! We used to be 1st for incarceration rate too 😬
Wait until the second Trump administration announces that if you’re Latino, you go to prison if you’re detained without your papers and if you’re queer, well, that’s just prison.
if you’re queer, well, that’s just prison.
Peter Thiel too?
“When you’re wealthy, they let you do it.”
I remember when Trump separated Mexican children from their parents and kept them in actual cages while moving their parents several states away without keeping any records of which children go with which parents. Lovely guy.
“But not me,” think the people who will vote for him and have friends or family incarcerated.
Once the consequences have landed in their backyard, they’ll suddenly care… and by then, it will be far too late to act (งツ)ว
That’s when you blame the Other, duh. Covid? Bidens fault exclusively.
These are the people who denied covid until it was too late.
Too late? Some still deny its impact after the fact
Yeah, because corrupt people who can completely control everyone in the government just can’t quite figure out how to beat the voting system. It is definitely in the people’s hands with this vote!
They won’t have to do anything if defeatist like you just roll over and let them. Stop whining and do something, even if it’s just voting.
If you’re not White, Male, Christan, Straight, a Citizen, Conservative, a Facist OR you’re none of the above BUT you’re in the 1% then you’re essentially fucked.
Is that different from the current era we are in?
I mean… worse is different.
ACLU didn’t say we’re going from a shining world to bad… they’re saying “OH BOY IF YOU THINK THINGS ARE BAD NOW!”
