Whoever added the citations to this is doing extremely important work. It needs to be finished though.

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 32 points 1 year ago

Be the change you want to see in the world

[-] Carrolade@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago

These kinds of projects are good for crowd sourcing. Nobody has read all 900 pages, and watched all the speeches and read all the articles, etc etc. But the community taken together, can. Or at least come much closer anyway.

How is continue to pack the supreme court "happening rn"? I wish Biden was doing that but...

[-] ImADifferentBird 41 points 1 year ago

I've said it many times, I wish the boogeyman Democratic party that exists in Republicans' fevered imaginations was real. They get shit done.

I’ve been skimming through the listed page numbers so maybe I missed it but where in pg 545-581 does it talk about “[ending] marriage equality”? That whole section seems to be talking about the FBI and DOJ

[-] Today@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

This is what's killing me. When our 'news' turns out to look like propaganda, it hurts our cause. There is enough bad. It doesn't need to be exaggerated.

What the fuck, people are JUST NOW hearing about this??

[-] Ragdoll_X@lemmy.world 69 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You'd be surprised at just how little the average voter knows about politics. There's a reason a lot of people wish politics would go back to being boring and not something everyone talked about.

[-] Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 year ago

Indeed. Pretty much everyone I know over the age of 50 gets all of their news from Fox/CNN and maybe facebook. They're oblivious and make up the majority of the people that actually go and vote.

Never underestimate how uninformed people are.

Trump got too many votes in 2016, and even more than that in 2020, and you're surprised at how uninformed American voters are?

[-] ImADifferentBird 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Our press is too busy with far more important issues than Trump's advisors plotting a fascist takeover of the country. You know, like Biden being old.

[-] Guntrigger@sopuli.xyz 118 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Trump World sounds like the shittiest theme park. Even worse than that Willy Wonka Experience.

[-] TheEntity@lemmy.world 43 points 1 year ago

Did the Epstein island rebrand?

[-] Guntrigger@sopuli.xyz 14 points 1 year ago

Oh gods. An Epstein island, but instead of underage girls, it's all Trump doppelgangers.

If they're very small and kickable this might be cool.

Please, weaponize this! I know the last place you want to go is a Fox News comment section or FB posts but these people need to see how they will be personally affected too.

Weaponize the cuts to social security and medicare as much as you can. Yes, lots of conservatives are a lot cause. But I'm not asking you to reach them on the moral issues, I'm asking to get them rightfully scared of losing social security and medicare/medicaid. Make it personal.

[-] Ragnarok314159@sopuli.xyz 12 points 1 year ago

They also need to know they don’t need to vote for anyone. It’s perfectly valid to leave the space blank if they are not comfortable voting for Biden.

The option exists to not vote straight R, and no one will ever know. They can vote Biden and vote R for everything else, and still pretend they voted for Trump.

"trump world" sounds like the most disappointing and predatory theme park ever.

Sign: "You must be this ($$$) rich to ride this ride."

If you are not rich, you may donate ($) to those more fortunate than you until God decides to make you rich!

Project 2025 has been around for years. How have people not noticed it?

[-] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 37 points 1 year ago

Because on its surface it sounds like something the magas would make up.

The news refused to cover it until people made it a big deal online.

It's how it always works.

BS. This is exactly what Rump world wants. They love consolidation of power, Christian nationalism, and taking power away from non-white men. They are worried that centrist and moderate red voters will hear about it.

[-] OsaErisXero@kbin.run 75 points 1 year ago

That's what the headline was about?

[-] overload@sopuli.xyz 29 points 1 year ago

Tell me about it. Weird tone of writing for a comment completely aligned with the article.

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 16 points 1 year ago

That's not true! Their comment reinforced the same ideas in the linked article.

[-] 0x0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 1 year ago

BS. I totally agree with you.

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 35 points 1 year ago

"BS" then goes to repeat what the headline says.

If he is elected, they won’t keep trying to pretend that they are against these positions.

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 30 points 1 year ago

Sadly my Right Wing friends insist it's "Just the Heritage Foundation" and that the "REAL" GOP already rejects it

So naive...

[-] Burn_The_Right@lemmy.world 25 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

No conservative voter thinks poorly of Project 2025. Every conservative in the U.S. is either fine with it or excited about it.

A conservative who pretends it's not their platform is lying, either to placate you or to save face.

Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation, even when those words come from friends or family.

They were proud of it up until not long ago, trusting to the ignorance of the "average American" about policy details. Then the Supreme Court ruling came.

[-] Yeller_king@reddthat.com 22 points 1 year ago

My family is pretty politically aware and my brother only just started talking about it, so it will take a bit for word to spread.

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 11 points 1 year ago

Even the right wingers are pretending like it's nothing.

Not even arguing

[-] SoleInvictus 16 points 1 year ago

What a bunch of idiots. A group funded by their politicians that frequently provides them with "model" legislation now has a manifesto regarding how to overthrow democracy and we're supposed to believe it's no big deal.

[-] Omega_Man@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

Fascists know what they're doing when they gaslight you.

The thing that pisses me off the most about Project 2025 is that there's no Project 2029 from the left.
