In April 2022, the Heritage Foundation introduced 'Project 2025' with the hope of guiding America toward authoritarianism. Now, with Donald Trump at the top of the Republican ticket, that threat has only grown more dire. But what exactly are the plans of Project 2025, and how can we fight against this right-wing movement? A Q&A with Thomas Zimmer, Professor of 20th-century U.S. and international history at Georgetown University, sheds light on this dangerous project. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/project-2025-thomas-zimmer-trump
@georgetakei I would say liberal fascists have done a bang up job of steering America toward authoritarianism all on their own. Now we have gulags, show trials, and state run media. Collusion with big tech to kill the 1st Amendment too. Talk about hypocrisy...
@georgetakei So, to sum up. It's a well thought out and funded public facing domestic based organization bent on subverting the constitution and inalienable rights of, and Imposing theocratic governing through force, against United States citizens? Don't we have a name for that sort of thing? i feel like in history there's been armed forces deployed to respond to stuff like this....I just can't put my finger on it..Anyone have any counter-thoughts on this, where I might be wrong in my summary?
@georgetakei 2025 randomly happens to be 100 years after the italian fascist party assassinated their political competition and mussolini seized power until he was lynched almost two decades later
@georgetakei But but but this can't be!! I keep reading where younger folk on here equate them as the same or Biden even worse. Wonder if trump does win big how they will feel when they try to protest as he turns their world upside down. And discover the new old guy has plans to treat protest differently than the old old guy.
