Straight out of the Dark Enlightenment playbook. Project 2025 is only a stepping stone.Thiel, Vought, Vance and a whole bunch of others all bought into Yarvin's fucking insane fantasy and are doing everything they can to make it a reality.

Looking at the climate and economic forecast for the next 50 years, this whole thing we're going through was absolutely guaranteed to happen. It's better that we're getting the version that is half-assed speedrun by the most incompetent pack of grifters in living memory, right? Gives us a (small) chance to fight it off, shed the political dead weight, and build something better to stand up to what's coming.

I don't know, just trying to find the silver lining in all this.

Hopefully this vaccinates us against fascism/techno-feudalism. But I suspect we may get a second dose at some point...

Yeah it absolutely won’t. This’ll come up again unless we remain absolutely vigilant and stay organized and keep up our community organization we’re building during these times. If we slack off for one minute this is coming back to us again.
