in today’s news: lying scumbag has surprisingly lied
I’ve started reading it. ~880 pages. The first section delineates the boring things with sneaking incredibly non-republic based idea into every third sentence or so. Things that push the value of the executive while diminishing the value of anything else in the republic.
I’m on the second article. It is going to be the biggest grind of my life. I’m going to read it through once. And the second time I’m going to take notes.
So far its largest tool is how it uses

… type arguments to hide monarchical and absolutist ideals smothering the republic. These types of arguments are common in online forums.
It is insidious. And it should be read but is going to be like the Xian bible … never read but frequently quoted. They will just leave out the bad bits from their quotes until later when they will say, “It is all laid out in the document.”
i’m grateful for your service!
Everyone knew he was lying. His voters just didn’t care.
His voters wouldn’t even bother to read about project 2025 on the project 2025 website.
If they did, I’m sure they would have some objections. But then the Trump Translator part of their brain is engaged. “Surely he didn’t mean it like that, what he really means is [something to decrease cognitive dissonance]”
Most of them are so dumb they think prices at the grocery store are literally set by the president, like Biden was sitting down signing off on the price of eggs going up rather than ever understanding a semblance of the corporatocracy we live in. And if prices change at the pump, or grocery store, etc, they’ll thank god emperor Trump for signing new prices into place, continuing the cycle of idiocracy.
When people complain about gas prices in a political discussion I have found that taking it to the absurd can shut them up. I’ll say something like “Well everybody knows Biden has that big gas price lever on his desk in the oval office. He just keeps cranking on it, why won’t he stop?”
Fucking duh
Trump also disavowed:
Being racist
Wanting to overturn roe v wade Losing the election
Being weird
Knowing half the people that worked for him
Etc.See a pattern?
If you still don’t or never did, you’re a fucking idiot.
To the shock of absolutely no one who has been paying attention.
And yet the New York Times refuses to use the words lie or liar.
No shit, you don’t develop a 900 page plan, hire some of the very people who wrote it, author an introduction for a book by one of the authors, and then go “Naaah…”
And you losers aided him in lying the entire campaign. You and your loser cable news station buddies.
• EXERCISE IS GOOD
• MEDICINE CAN HELP
• SMOKING IS BAD
• EAT RIGHT FOR BETTER HEALTH
• CANCER CAN CAUSE DEATHI read the penultimate one as “EAT RIGHT FOR BETTER DEATH” at first 😄
Next they’ll be denying that Peter Thiel has sponsored JD Vance’s entire political career (which is only two years old), and that it’s a ploy to institute a Techo-Monarchy that their favourite bloggee Curtis Yarvin writes about, and that several other billionaires are in on it (such as Marc Andresseen)… And that it involves having less of a democracy than currently.
No shit? You don’t say… For real?
I’m at this weird place where I sort of want Trump to do horrible things? It seems like it’s the only way the public might snap out of it. I mean I would have thought his first term worked have been enough but here we are.
Ideally we could all count on the Dems to learn from this and be better next time… I just don’t see that happening right now.
So you’re an accelerationist
I feel it too. I think it’s also partially just depression. A mental health support mechanism, expecting the worst in order to not be disappointed.
Our brains also have whiplashed, disconnecting emotionally after we committed so hard to hoping for a result that would have averted disaster, but feeling absolutely powerless in the face of mob insanity.
Snap out of what? This is why they voted for him.
Maybe they voted for him to do the one thing that they believe will benefit them, but not the other thing
Yep, my step mom voted for him. She’s a teacher and still refuses to believe that he said he’s going to shut down the department of education.
I’m there with you.
I just hope a redhat wearing nutjob decides now is the time for violence so I can kill one. I worked with a bunch and they are evil.
He lied???
You mean he lied? Well I never.
