Absolutely.
Acting openly horrible has been hugely successful with their base. Maybe it’s gone far enough that all the low information voters out there will start seeing how crazy things have gotten. I know the women in my social circle are pissed, and they’re pretty much all white suburban moms. That’s a group that could have a big effect here.
I'm curious. About what specifically? That "MAGA Manifesto" is huge.
I haven’t exactly interrogated them about all the details, but there is a lot of anger about all the stuff specific to women for sure. I think the Roe overturning primed many women (and people in general) to see that this shit is serious and not just the empty political talk they’re used to mostly ignoring. They are worried it will continue to get worse and make their health care more difficult in general, not just for abortions.
Thank you for sharing. I like seeing people get engaged with stuff that matters, but not at a cost like this.
Agreed. The cost is too much, but once my wife asked me if I’ve heard about project 2025 a few weeks ago after texting her friends, I knew it had hit some sort of critical mass with the normies (which I say with zero negativity attached to it).
They are correct to worry and it's good they are finally clued in, late as it is.
Not just the Roe overturning, but also the promises that "this won't be a complete ban" and "there will be exceptions" only for there to be complete bans with no exceptions, including unviable pregnancies that threaten the woman's life.
Somewhere there is a site that lets you put in topics that concern you, and it pulls up page numbers and quotes from p2025 that fit. I really need to find and bookmark it for linking...

Lemmy hug of death? I see a Heroku app down page.
Looks like that dev haven't kept it up but I've seen 2 other people announce working on it
Thank you!
Would appreciate that link too if you find it again

I've read 103 pages so far... Nothing worth noting as extreme in this document. The left (not everyone) is just fkin stupid, ignorant, and parroting chit. No different than calling Trump Hitler, a dictator, a Nazi, a racist, a fascist etc..
I get the tactic though.
It's election year. They needed to fear monger, so they chose "Project 2025". They needed to race bait, so they needed to find a story anywhere in America about a White cop shooting a non-violent Black person - Sonya Massey. BLM isn't falling for their chit. They've caught on.
Leftist tactics are played out, same ol fkin moves as before.
It's always fascinating watching people on the wrong side of history spin and justify the desires and actions of conservatives throughout the world throughout history.
Like leftists and the would be Trump assassin?
BTW he was a leftist POS degenerate afterall. They've discovered his Gab social account. How about Ava Kris Tyson, how the leftist are making excuses and rationalizing the actions of that degenerate chomo? Hope he goes to prison and gets proper justice.
Got a source?
Keep reading, then delete this comment when you realize how fucking stupid you sound 🤣
Oh look. It's the guy centrists imagine when someone says they don't support genocide.
Wait.. re-word your comment because I have absolutely no idea wtf you just typed out.
No.
Nazis always seem to be stupid enough to leave evidence around of their plans.
Where do you think the villain monologue trope comes from? lol
I mean they do seem like a Saturday morning cartoon villain just monologuing their evil plan because they think they have the hero down for the count.
Worse, they think they are the heroes.
I'm surprised they're not trying to sell it.
They haven't figured out a way to fit the whole thing on a shoe.
Just you wait.
