I’ve never seen something as unhinged as Project 2025. I mean it, it sounds like a shitty “evil plan” cooked on 4chan, but it’s fucking real. Insane.
It’s not just real it’s their actual political strategy. This isn’t fringe shit, this is what they will do when they take office.

4chan has several porn and LGBT boards. this is on conservatism.
Conservatives consume tons of porn. They just feel guilt about it afterwards.
It's like one of those idiots came up with this stupid idea and now none of the other morons can call this out because they would have to admit that they are watching porn.
Like the emperor's new clothes but in politics.
More like they think everyone should feel guilt about it
Yeah, but a lot of conservatives, and by extension fascists, are extremely hypocritical on the surface, except they like to use "hypocrisy" as a tool against their opponents, and by "hypocrisy", I mean not following the strawman version of your ideology. I personally call this as "rulebending", they're manipulating their opponents rules to be even higher and thus choking them with it.
On a deeper level they just want a lot of power, which includes them being above the law, as long as they're loyal to the dictator/king. If project 2025 succeeds, expect one of them getting caught on live with real CP, maybe even raping a child, then will just go "so what? I can do this, you are not allowed to!".
If we're talking about American politics in our lifetime, yeah this is tops. But it's not history's craziest politics by a long shot
Hear that everyone, it could be worse
Thanks for the enlightening framing. When they’re rounding up people they don’t like we should tell them it’s ok, it’s been worse
Nobody fucking cares. This isn’t some academic exercise to rank crazy times. This is the very real political strategy of a party about to take power in the US. This view from nowhere shit is so exhausting.
You mistake me: I think it's so bad people should leave if they can, or revolt en masse. I just also like talking about history.
Read the room
I have. Are you going to leave if you can or revolt en masse?
Yes my family and I fly out next week
I left three years ago. I saw all this coming, though I still do the voting bit. Sorry it's come to this.
We started the process two years ago and I’m helping friends get sorted too. It sucks
It's been somewhat traumatic. I had to take things back to where they began two generations ago, return to the roots that once were, though they're new to me. I'm grateful that you and I could commiserate, at least. It's validating to speak to others who felt the same.
I am genuinely happy for you, but I'm poor so I literally don't have the money to move. The best I can do at this point is put away a little of money when I can (not often) and hope for the best.
I may have lost hope, but I will keep doing what I can to help. I still love what America should have been.
Same. In my opinion, America—"the Great Experiment"—is at this point mostly a failed experiment. But the goal for which said experiment originally strived is still a worthy one.
I didn't know there was a book adaptation of that movie
Anyway, how’s your sex life?
Better than my septem life, that's for sure
