    Why Democrats are not putting project 2025 front and center in their attacks on R’s is beyond me.

      It is very strange and alarming that project 2025 is this huge fucking problem that no one is truly addressing in any formal way.

      I mean, the people behind it are essentially wealthy domestic terrorists who keep paying off the Supreme Court with “gratuities.” Someone needs to put a stop to this blatant display of corruption and fascism. I don’t understand what’s taking so long.

        It’s a large complex document and we are a simple, overworked, undereducated and frightened people, on the whole. Start circulating this graphic to help make it a simpler consideration of how the specific dangers will directly impact different populations. Chances are good there’s at least one on the list that each person you share with would care about.

        We can’t get upset at politicians for what we are failing to pay attention to. The democrats are working against it.

        Now, if the concern is “why hasn’t anything worked to fully dismantle this plan”, the answer is that it’s a well-crafted (albeit evil) plan made over decades. It’s not going to have Death Star exhaust ports for the right Democrat Skywalker to shoot a pulse into. It’s going to take a concerted, unified, lengthy effort from politicians and the voters to defeat it. All good things do.

        The poster above gave you a great infographic and there are others online. The route forward involves us sharing with others, collaborating on strategic voting, and forming plans to help the vulnerable around us in the event that it comes to pass. It is stressful, but know you’re sharing that with a ton of people right now.

        Because it’s not meant for them so they don’t announce it like that, it’s meant for the big donors

          It just highlights that republicans almost universally have no idea what they’re voting for

      It’s like playing Whac-A-Mole and they all pop up, then some moles approach you from behind with knives.
