JFC is their moto seriously “The people voted for major reform”? First, they barely won and are acting like there was some monumental landslide victory.
Second, none of what they’re doing is actually what they campaigned on. Trump actually tried to distance himself as much as possible from Project 2025 during the campaign.
Fascists lie about everything. If a fascist ever tells the truth, it’s either a mistake or a coincidence that conveniently aligns with their propaganda and goals.
That’s just how fascism is, and always will be.
2/3 voting age Americans did not vote for this. That’s a fact.
Voter turnout was 64% which means 36% of Americans didn’t give enough of a shit to vote. Combine that with those who did vote for Trump and yeah, more than 2/3rds of Americans may as well have voted for it
Edit: the distinction may not matter to you but it does to the countries your country is fucking over
2/3 of Americans were ok with it though :(
No, more like half of those 2/3rds are going to bitch about all this and vot the same way (or continue to not vote) in the next election.
They should have voted to prevent this, but only half of them did. They other half lived through the first Trump admin and decided that it was not worth a few minutes of their time to prevent it. They didn’t have to cross an ocean or fight a war… they needed to visit a website to get registered and the mail a form (or stand in line for a while) to vote, and they didn’t.
In other words, only 1/3 of Americans voted against this.
A large part of voting age Americans didn’t care enough either way.
I hope they all suffer for it. I hope they cry.
Is this horseshoe theory? lol
This is “angry people can become malicious no matter what they believe in”-theory.
Wait until you find out about Brexit…
Isn’t it crazy that basically every election at this point is basically like:
- Option 1) We keep the status quo, nothing really changes.
- Option 2) We burn it all down to the ground. Not to rebuild something better, but just for the hell of it.
That was a referendum, but my point basically was that the government was like “we have a mandate to leave the EU fully” when the vote result was like… 52% in favour, and many people (including some I know personally) regret voting leave because they didn’t realise how significant the EU was.
Of course, there was a 2019 election where the conservative party won on a “get brexit done”’ campaign under Boris Johnson, but their opposition was split between Lib Dems (wanted a second referendum and was quite clear) and Labour (run under Corbyn who already lost an election, was extremely incompetent and hard to elect, and decided for some reason in this crucial time to fencesit the entire Brexit issue. All I can remember is them offering free WiFi which has the same vibes of the 2024 national service campaign)
This isn’t so much “hacked” as someone walked through the door they left wide open. They just hid it behind a bush.
