Project 2025: Trump's plan for authoritarian takeover

Not open for further replies.
i don't think anybody here is really being hysterical. why do internet discussions go there so fast? having a difference of opinion is not being hysterical. challenging a claim is not being hysterical.

"the adults are back in charge"

really? i watched almost all of the confirmation hearings and the people being confirmed can't answer the simplest of questions about the position for which they have been nominated and appear, in many cases, woefully underqualified for the job and in some cases totally unqualified.

we fought a revolution to get out from under the tyranny of king george iii. many second amendment proponents here tell me their right to bear arms is essential to prevent that kind of tyranny of kings from ever happening again.

can somebody here help me understand how exactly the same people embrace this so easily: Trump receives widespread backlash to social post calling himself ‘king’

too bad you don't pay

i think you're mostly joking when you say this kind of stuff, ions. but you know what they say about many a true word.

sellers don't define worth. only buyers can do that. you can think a house is 'worth' a million dollars but if the most a seller is willing to pay is $500k, that is what it's worth.

so it is with information and opinion. you (i.e. one) may think that your advice is worth money but, if nobody is willing to pay for it, it's literally worthless.

It's not that I don't charge. cuz I do.
It's that you don't pay.
And it against the BLUA to solicit.
You got problems. I have answers.

It's kind of a fucked if you do fucked if you dont scenario. Maybe if Trump does enough crazy shit then liberals will get upset enough to move to the left and realize that voting for a slightly less crazy liberal is not going to help. It's got to start personally affecting people before anything will change

Yeah again I've heard that forever and it never works. Sounds to me like people playing games with the lives of others. Basically, "we're willing to have you suffer and potentially die so that maybe one day our side will win."

It reminds me more of religious zealotry than real political activism.

I am worried that there is going to be a similar right wing takeover in Canada. Remember how great Harper was? The right wingers in Canada are stupid enough to vote for anything. It's weird cause the people in Canada who vote these fuckers in arent alot better off then me yet they will rim these morons all day? Even people in my province will vote for them despite us being the poorest province in Canada and conservatives hate newfies

What is the name of the conservatives new guy anyway? Oh i just looked it up its Poilievre. He worked for stockwell day oh that says alot

Well better them then me
 
You should familiarize yourself with Austrian economics. and the US constitution. What every past president has been signing off on has ballooned government for the past 250 years. There is no need to have so much employment in the public sector. and it is waste and has become debt spending.
 
With all that tax money you'll be saving, you guys can afford a modest donation. If not to the II then consider one to Bluelight.

What happened to solidarity with the disenfranchised and downtrodden of the world?
Isn't incremental improvement better than annihilation?

Liberals will never side with the downtrodden of the world. I believe JFK who was pretty liberal was in power when Patrice Lumumba was in charge and he still got killed for stepping up against capitalism. Liberals will i n the end side with Fascism simply because siding with Communism means their annihilation.

Without looking it up, in your own words, can you give me a brief definition to some terms:

Liberal
Conservative
Communist
Fascist
Nazi
Zionist
 
Kennedy got assassinated by the CIA because he tried to abolish the CIA and LBJ was looking to take over.

Liberal=left of center in good times and slightly right of center in bad times. Just like Phil Ochs said. But they are still capitalist

Conservative=Right of center Capitalists

Communist = Wait are we talking about Marxist-Leninists? Assuming that you are i guess the easiest definition would be something like we believe in a dictatorship of the protectant and in the simple motto from each according to his ability and to each according to his need.

Fascism = So far right you might as well keep going. Still pro capitalist though

Nazi = A type of fascism.

Zionism = Also a type of Fascism as well except with Jews in place of white supremacists
