Worse, Project 2025 wasn’t written by one guy, but by a large team of people (mainly the Heritage Foundation and a handful of related groups). This plan was generated by groups of idiots, by a coordinated conservative ‘think tank’.
Many of the problems you pointed out aren’t bugs to them, they’re features. Their goals are very misaligned from ours. If you see it through their lens – of accelerationist dominionism – many of those points aren’t problems, but methods to reshape society to serve their particular goals.
For example, they want all of public education to collapse so that all education can become evangelical church-based. Teachers shouldn’t need to be certified beyond a religious education. They’re already very fond of spinning up universities and giving people the flimsiest of PhDs. Look at the number of Christian authors with ‘Dr’ before their name, then see where they got their doctorate and what it’s in. They do not care about education, except that kids should be able to read the bible and learn extra things for common professions, like working with numbers. If all teachers are housewives with training in the bible and the 4Rs, they think that’s a good thing.
They want to put the lower classes in their place, and that includes religiously. This is pretty clearly a blueprint for a christofascist utopia.
e: links. Also, many in the groups associated with this project are self-avowed dominionists.
Time to buy a ham radio?
Did you know your anus has taste receptors?
You’re welcome.
He’s lowered prescription drug prices by 1500%, too.
Like numbers mean anything to this deranged ape.
Wow. So glad this is what’s on what’s left of his mind. Not soaring prices or atrocities committed in his name. No, this is what matters.
Anyone else see a red circle at their feet, or is that just me?
Well, yeah. Regulations are a major part of society, and a major reason we tend to come together. Yet another reason libertarianism is misguided.
You literally can do that.
Why do people seem to think this is impossible?
What’s changed? Some parts of that life are sometimes illegal, but most people haven’t been against it like this.
What’s different?
Well yeah, I get that. But there are plots for really cheap, but they don’t have any kind of access to water, sewage, or whatever. Plots for like 10,000 or less. That sounds like a lot, I suppose, but it isn’t. I think it’s more that people don’t understand how money works,
Of course I do. And again, that’s my point.
People romanticise this, but it’s impossible for many reasons. You can easily try, but we have societies for a reason.
Everyone is free to do this, but good luck in practice. It’s not just hard, and it’s not just stupid, but why the fuck would you want this? It’s insane, and we’re not geared for this.
Life in the wilderness is not a Disney movie. It’s so ruthlessly difficult, that’s why society exists. We are stronger, safer, and happier together.
Ah. Peace at last.
