The ‘born into wealth’ bar is so large, you’d need a microscope to see any other bars.

Ever seen the difference in wealth between millions and billions?

Put another way, Elon could spend a million dollars a day for a thousand years and still be a billionaire.

When people are starving and can’t get healthcare or basic needs, that’s just fucking disgusting.

Slava Ukraine.

We need to start calling this Trump’s Folly everywhere and for now on.

There. Are. Six. Hands.

Quick reminder that Ivanka made her dad swear not to date anyone younger than her when she was 17.

Totally normal conversation for a teen girl to have with her father, and not horribly creepy at all.

Like, what the fuck prompted her to ask him to promise this?

Surely not whatever is implied by these photos:

You should pay the first few marks so they’ll help establish the veneer of credibility. That’s Conning 101.

I forget the corresponding Ferengi Rule of Acquisition number.

Shocked any received it, honestly.

Yeah, the reason I referenced the ‘nothing to hide’ thing was because he’s a lawman, and that’s a lawman saying.

I agree with you.

Great, thanks.

So how about we get enraged and vow to fight the blatant fascism going on in [gesturing about broadly].

Too much to ask?

Why would he? Nothing to hide, etc.

As the prosecutor during a nonfascist stint of the government, he was doing his actual job. That sounds ludicrous to these fascist weasels, but weirdly, he wasn’t doing politics. He was a prosecutor for The Hague, IIRC. A by-the-book career man. He literally has nothing to hide here.

It’s so annoying that so many people think everything is intrigue and spycraft when most government jobs are very boring just do-your-job monotony. Stop thinking everything is like movies and learn some real life shit, please. The world is far more boring than you think.

Unfortunately, they can do quite a lot of damage before they fail.

We really need to understand that Hitler Was Incompetent and Lazy—and His Nazi Government Was an Absolute Clown Show.

We’ve mythologised fascists to the point we’ve made recognising them difficult.

Oh wow, she’s beautiful!

Is there a /c/supermodelcats?

e: sadly, not yet

Pretty sure the torts in those photos are plotting assassinations. You can see it in their eyes.

Contact them. Flood their inboxes, chats, and phone lines.

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?

Tell you what, let’s meet in the middle and make your death day a holiday. So come on now, hurry up so we can celebrate it in 2026.

I haven’t, and I’ll have a look at those, thanks!

I could curl up with that movie and a warm blanket if I had the flu. I wouldn’t necessarily choose it, but I wouldn’t resist it, either.

Many family movies also work. Plus Scooby doo for some reason.
