      Oh my god, I can’t believe people aren’t freaking out more about Trump’s “Project 2025”! This is literally the blueprint for a full-on fascist takeover of America! They want to gut every federal agency, replace career officials with loyalists, and basically create a one-party state where dissent is crushed. It’s not just a plan, it’s an all-out assault on democracy! If this goes through, we’re talking about the end of free speech, the end of checks and balances, and the rise of authoritarian rule like we’ve never seen before. How are people not seeing the danger here?! This is a full-blown fascist power grab and nobody seems to care!

      If voters were ignorant enough to vote for Trump despite January 6th and all of his other wannabe dictator statements, there really isn’t any hope of them having enough intelligence to understand what a dangerous situation they created by voting him back in.

      But he told everyone he didn’t know what it is, so it must not be real. 

      Get ready for the “I voted for trump not for this” defense.

      Because they aren’t really aware of the significance, to them, of the institutions that Trump will wreck.

      As long as someone with low information is promised potential monetary gain, they don’t care how you get there. Even if that means significant rollbacks of things you take for granted every day.

      Because they don’t understand how our government and economy work at all. They won’t panic until it’s too late.

      They must think it will be concentration camps of everyone else and not them.

      I’m still not convinced this election was won by Trump legitimately. Go ahead, rail and downvote on me all you want. But given Trump’s statements on the campaign trail alluding to such shenanigans, and the fact he acted like he didn’t even have to try towards the end…it leads me to believe the fix was in.

    12. Responsible-Room-645 on

      Because history has clearly demonstrated that dictators are almost always handed power to them on a silver platter

    13. bickering_fool on

      Because they welcome it.

      1930s Germany – Jews. 2020s – immigrants.

    15. bubbasass on

      Most voters aren’t panicked because most voters think they’re “one of the good ones” that won’t be impacted.

      >…viewing pornography punishable with prison time…

      I’m sure the young men who backed Trump must be so happy to hear that. What’s next? Masturbation perhaps.

      >>…maintain a biblically based definition of marriage and family

      Do they mean plural wives and having a quiverfull of babies until the mother’s body literally wears out?

      I saw this coming when Reagan was in office. It sucks to be right sometimes.

    19. mangoserpent on

      Three thoughts. Many people are dismissing it as much ado about nothing, another group want it all to happen and many people are worried but recognize they cannot do much.

    21. Proof_Object_6358 on

      I guess the same reason there wasn’t enough panic in Germany in the 1930s?

    24. ChristmasPuddingFL on

      We have discussed this and other topics like it to death over the last few weeks but the answer remains the same. Most of the voters took the very classic non-incumbent bait of we will out more money in your pocket than the current guys…and that’s all it took, as we have seen repeated in a lot of elections globally post pandemic.

      The vast majority of voters are very ‘surface level’ with their choices and with Fox News being the most viewed ‘news’ channel in the USA and giving zero air time to Project 2025 or any significant GOP policy other than ‘the Republicans will protect the border (which they are refusing to do until elected), because is scary right now’ and ‘Trump will bring down gas prices’ it’s not shocking that many were easily taken in. Most voters are not looking any deeper than that. Tbh most aren’t even going Fox News deep.

      Because lots of white America may be poor, but they are privileged in thought, whether they realize it or not and these things in Project 2025 are not aimed at them, in their eyes.

      When the GOP speaks about welfare queens in the big city. White folks on welfare know who they are talking about, and WANT action.

      They are being lied to by other white people and can not process it.

      This is why Project 2025 was ignored, and its across the board. Veterans, Federal workers, Union Members, white folks on welfare, old folks on Social Security/Medicare, folks using the ACA, etc

      And this is leaving out this new racist trope of “stupid” hispanics, blacks, gays and women voted Trump into office, blame them.

      This is how you don’t blame White America – don’t blame them for school shootings, don’t blame them for opioid addiction, don’t blame them for ignorance and racism, don’t blame them for voting a fascist into office.

      When it comes to mass deportation, many GOP farmers were dismissive saying Trump 1.0 didn’t raid their workers in most interviews I’ve read. Of course this could be whistling by the grave for 2.0 and home builders who use migrant framing roofing crews mounted a guest worker permit offensive pre-election. We’ll see.

      On the Democratic side, social psychology papers opined many major Democratic donors would be pissed *if voters returned the idiocracy into power .. again* and may let the avg consumer take their lumps while “softening” up the Trump 2.0. There’s also looking at legal issues. They may have to pay $1-2 more on their Chez Snooty tab to ensure the dishwasher is legal .. whatever.

      On reproductive rights and lbtg front, think it’s way more serious. Overhearing some conversations at a state u coffeehouse, some young hetero women/couples are leaving the US at least for a bit (probably with parental financial support). Lbtg people have been migrating away from red areas even before ‘24. Black people (a significant amount) have been moving back to the south for economics for a couple decades, and if anything the choice of Harris will probably resonate with them. One bright spot as the Democrats need to be challenging everywhere.

      Easy answer: Most people are fucking dumb. Also a lot of people want a strongman to run their lives as long as he gets rid of all the people the dumb people want to see removed. It’s an old story.

    29. blackmobius on

      We already did. A bunch of people voted for it anyways, a bunch of people couldnt be bothered to vote. And we watched all three branches of the government go red, effectively fully embracing the project.

      At this point, whats the point?

    30. HitchensWasTheShit on

      Dumb Americans haven’t learned enough history, so they cannot spot an authoritarian populist when they see him, and therefore buy his bullshit. The democrats have not been able to combat the relevant space efficiently, and the Russians/Musk have manipulated the airwaves to help. 

      Now they are going to feel the full force of their decision. Faces will be eaten, and leopards will rejoice.
