Project 2025’s 180-Day Playbook is a remarkably detailed guide to turning the United States into a fascist’s paradise.

    I do think theyre making perfect be the enemy of, well not exactly good, but in this case the better option, but Im not so sure theyre foreign ops. If you were running a campaign like that, wouldnt you want to concentrate your messaging on the places where the greatest number of people would be to see it, or at least a lot of people? Lemmy is certainly not immune to influence campaigns, Id bet it might even be more vulnerable than most given the lack of central control that might try to inhibit one, but its also currently incredibly small and obscure as far as social networks go. Would it really be considered worth the resources, to such a campaign, in its current state?

      Agreed. They’re dangerous and privileged – it really doesn’t need to be more complicated than that.

        Haha, yeah nothing to see here.

        There was a point in 2016 when the bernouts started spouting on about how they were now voting for Trump. It’s the exact same situation. They will disingenuously demand something that is not feasible then they will show their true colors while acting like they didn’t intend on voting Trump from the get go.

        For the love of god don’t fall for it again.

        Imagine voting for neolibs and having the gall to call progressives privileged. Progressives are younger and lower income but sure we’re the privileged ones. You don’t give a shit about anything except character assassinating anyone you see as an enemy. There’s never any honest attempt at engagement from you people.

          Imagine advocating for actions that directly increase the risk of a Trump presidency.

          Grow up.

            Oh no, how dare I publicly criticize a political candidate in a democracy. It’s fucking crazy that you think you’re actually one of the good guys. This is exactly the kind of shit fascists say to shut down opposition.

      I think it’s more about the fact that this is the only place that doesn’t just ban them.
