It blows my mind that anyone can be that wrong on all topics.
It’s like the difference between choosing random answers on a multiple choice test versus knowing the right answers and actively avoiding them to get the worst result. It feels like they’re trying to punish the US for something.
Right? Like I’ve thought about how political decisions would be harder if the Republicans weren’t reliably wrong on everything.
Like, if they were pro-gay-rights but anti-environment, that would be more of a thinker. But they’re just wrong on everything.
Fascism, baby.

You’re telling me all that is unpopular??! The “Don’t Tread on Me” folks are falling over themselves to have this?
Sounds really non-tready, lol
This list just reads as “the billionaire list of punishments for the poor that think they’re people” I say we craft the inverse list where literally everything the billionaires enjoy is legislated away, kind of like they want to legislate away our way of life we should legislate away their way of life or I guess legislative way their ability to have billions of dollars.
Ban private jets
Ban megayachts
lol who downvoted this
A conservative. Conservatives are the minions of the billionaires. We cannot regulate/destroy billionaires without first defeating conservatives.
All you need to do is look at the lemee conservative comm to see how absolutely rock bottom stupid conservatives are.
Whenever I am feeling dumb, I peek in there and cheer myself right up!
Classifying transpeople as “pornographic”
??
Doesn’t have to make sense. Just has to fit a narrative.
It does make sense though, we’ve seen anti-trans, gay, abortion etc. conservatives be found out to take part in that very thing they’re publicly against so many times, and it’ll keep happening. Them wanting to classify trans as pornographic means they see it as that and they like it and hate themselves and transpeople for it.
ban IVF? why would they ban a safe and correct use of technology to help couples conceive what the actual fuck, I don’t think there is a single nation on earth that does this, can you get IVF in the middle east? this is just mind-blowingly neardenthal
Generally IVF involves fertilizing many eggs and then picking the best performing. Technically this is abortion.
Technically this is abortion.
Well no, technically it isn’t. But fundies think it is
You know what I’m always surprised is missing everytime I see this list? Repealing the 14th amendment. They are so wrong on all of it but somehow they don’t go for that one.
They do everything but repeal it
But that’s just it. To the megalomaniacal, psychotic, fascist person id assume the dream of having you own personal household slaves, or factory slaves that you can ln explort and abuse you heartless content would be the creme de la creme of goals.
Do the GOP leadership think this is improvement? Do they push this precisely because it’s terrible - for some reason. I don’t understand the madness.
You have the Christofacist nutjobs who want this, the power hungry fucks who want to control others, and the cowards lacking any ethics that don’t want to offend the Christofacist nutjobs.
The christofacists wants to punish people who are not like them? That’s not in accordance with the teachings of Jesus, is it? I find mild amusement in the fact that according to the beliefs of these people, they themselves are probably going to hell…
That’s true of every fascist regime using religion as an excuse. The Taliban isn’t following the teachings of Islam either, just the parts that give them control.
Do you know much about the bible? The Republicans are basically the Pharisees from Jesus’ time.
Revelation also predicted that there’d be evil shitheads who claim to be Christian but actually follow the Anti-Christ, but that was an easy prediction, there’s always evil shitheads who claim to be good, in any time and religion
Not familiar enough to know details like that. Is “Pharisees as obsessed with man-made rules (especially concerning purity) whereas Jesus is more concerned with God’s love; the Pharisees scorn sinners whereas Jesus seeks them out” an ok eli5 and tl;dr summary?
Yeah, I guess man kind is good at evil and shithead, unfortunately.
A key thing with the Pharisees was that they were obsessed with the appearance of being pious, rather than actually being so. Much like many modern Christians who are obsessed with appearing faithful and just, but aren’t so concerned with actually following Jesus’ teachings
At this point the only reason to vote for Trump is if your brains have been replaced with a yogurt or you’re a monster
I can forgive the 2016 Trump voters, Hillary campaigned with Kissinger after all, but America needs to wake up to the realization that a third of the country are actual monsters.
If it doesn’t work out this election… They won’t stop. They have been planning this for over 40 years. They have NI INTENTION of stopping. They will try again unless they are stopped
They have NI INTENTION of stopping.
Of course not. The heritage foundation has been doing this since the 70s. Reagan LOVED them.
I said this in another thread and I will keep repeating it because I think it’s important: if you know anyone who is a veteran or has a loved one who is a veteran, make sure they know that veteran’s benefits will be severely cut if Project 2025 is implemented.
As someone currently serving, it fucking boggles my mind that anyone who has ever served could be in favor of the Republican party. Even without Project 2025 threatening veteran benefits.
So many of us have been to actual locations where the Church has a stranglehold on the government/is the government. My husband has stories from Afghanistan. I went to Qatar, which, is a “progressive” middle eastern country. I could wear tshirts and knee length shorts, but I was also not allowed to ride in an elevator with the opposite sex, and I was heavily questioned when I tried to buy cigarettes until a male coworker intervened and assured that I could. Not to mention the FUCKING INSANE wealth disparity. Palaces gilded in gold for the government/rich/churches and literal shacks made out of whatever material could be cobbled together in the rural areas outside of Doha.
Why the fuck would anyone who has seen that first hand want to support anything that could even remotely resemble a world like that?
Why the fuck would anyone who has seen that first hand want to support anything that could even remotely resemble a world like that?
Because they think they’ll be the ones in the gold palaces, and they don’t give a fuck about anybody else
I just want the government to leave me and my rights and my property alone… is that too much to ask???

It’s crazy that your comment was the purported Republican platform for a long time, and they transmogrified into the fascist trash party that Orwell wrote about, that the Empire was in films, and that the Nazis were in real life. All because a bunch of US-based domestic terrorist fundies are running a theocratic “war” against freedom, democracy, and choice. How Orange DonOld the Weird, the rapist with 34 felonies is their figurehead makes even less sense.
Only to the people that were dumb enough to believe Reagan.
yes, it’s a government, if it did any of those things on purpose, it would be illegitimate/weak.
it must fuck up your shit, to prove it can fuck up your shit, to prove it can fuck up anyone’s shit.
The candidate of the Face Eating Leopard Party swears he does not like, and will not use, the face eating manual for leopards.
the former president’s campaign has disavowed the project and recently went so far as to say its “demise would be greatly welcomed,” while Trump urged his supporters to boo it at a campaign rally.
You’ll have to excuse me if I don’t believe for a fucking second that this is anything but optics. It’s not like conservatives have to explicitly say they’re following the playbook, but they obviously already are – many Republican lawmakers are members of the conservative organizations that wrote the fucking thing (see eg. this bit of news from TN)
Yeah for anyone really paying attention Project 2025 wasn’t the smoke, or even the fire. It’s just a picture of the fire that’s been burning since Barry Goldwater irrevocably shifted what the Republican party was and should be.That event shifted everything to the right because Democrats are still operating under the assumption that the two parties are left and right, and that the general populace sort of exists between the two. We see all those graphs about how only 40% of eligible American voters vote, and I think a lot of people read those charts wrong. Those aren’t voters who don’t give a shit, those are voters living in places where their jurisdiction is so skewed they don’t feel the need to vote, and people who look at the whole political system and see a massive shell game where everyone’s fighting to wield power, but no one’s really challenging if it’s good to live in such a top down administrative landscape where corporations are allowed to do whatever without accountability, and they don’t see much of anyone trying to do anything about that. Think about if you’re a DC or Hawaiian voter with deeply held social convictions and who’s running for office is a neo-fascist and a neo-liberal. How motivated are you to get to the polls when you know all your neighbors see the same thing you’re seeing. Your whole community is going to half heartedly show up for the neo-liberal, so you stay home, and then your jurisdiction goes 70% for the candidate you wanted. Sure, the margin could have been bigger if you showed up, but you’re broke and poor, and working those hours that day got you enough that you can celebrate with your kids tonight that the neo-fascist didn’t win. It’s been months since you had pizza. It would really make them happy watch the results roll in while you have a special treat.
We need this election to be a total shit show for the republicans. Like totally painting the canvas with them kinds of beat down. And then, come January, when the Democrats take office, we need to show up in the streets and show them we don’t like them either. Our politicians are so beholden to financiers and so isolated from our needs that I don’t even think they realize we don’t like any of them. Think about this. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, according to her positions, and according to polls of Americans, is completely aligned with American interests. She wants to do what we ALL want to do. And how many people see her as an evil virus from Satan because that’s what Fox told them she was. How many people see her as a naive idealist who doesn’t understand the full picture because that’s what NBC and CBS told them she is. She’s painted as a radical leftist when really… She’s a centrist. She’s the exact middle of America.
That’s the fucked up political reality we live in.
Billionaire Americans do, because it doesn’t apply to them
Unfavorable views of the project rose the most among Democrats, for whom the plan’s net favorability dropped by a whopping 36 percentage points, but it also became less popular among the smaller share of Republicans who had heard of the project: Net favorability for Project 2025 dropped 9 points among those who identified as MAGA supporters and 17 points among other Republicans.
I would love to be a fly on the wall when these Republicans finally come to realize who and what they have been supporting all of this time.
They will just double down for a while. Eventually, they will pretend they never supported any of it.
Americans want affordable housing, affordable health care, better gun regulations, a true ceasefire, and many other things that the establishment politicians don’t give AF about.
I don’t know about better gun regulations.
90% of Americans want something done about guns. They disagree on the details, but common sense things like Universal Background Checks are very popular. I know it’s common to depict all Americans as “hamburger, humburger, bang bang bang!” but a lot of people think AR-15 and similar weapons being allowed in the hands of civilians is absurd.
