We need to keep the Heritage Foundation, Project 2025, and everyone involved in attempting to make this a reality firmly implanted in everyone's mind to remember that this will be their goal in 2025, 2029 and beyond, we can't lose sight of those consequences of a future fascist Republican administration. Even if Democrats cinch the legislative and executive branch there is still part of the judicial branch compromised by Trump apointees who believe bullshit theories to excuse keeping policies in that hurt people so there will be ongoing work to be done.
A far right-wing agenda by Trump's supporters to overthrow democracy in the U.S. See, for example, here: https://web.archive.org/web/20240810100005/https://www.propublica.org/article/inside-project-2025-secret-training-videos-trump-election

What is project 2025
It's a major policy plan created in order to map out an effective takeover of the executive branch by Trump if he wins the election. It's been all over the news since it was revealed.
What's Meta need a bunch of fascist Christian nationalists for? It's not like they have an overlapping demograph-oh yeah, ofc.
Mark Zuckerbot sure is a shrew bastard. Elon Musk wishes he had his computational brain.
In think 'shrewd' is probably the word, even if using it ironically.
Are people still surprised by zios collaborating with other fascists?
Pretty sure it has nothing to do with this, right?
Poor guy regretting he bowed to censorship...
Aug 27 (Reuters) - Meta Platforms (META.O) , opens new tab CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the Biden administration had pressured the company to "censor" COVID-19 content during the pandemic, apparently referring to White House requests to take down misinformation about the coronavirus and vaccines.
In a letter dated Aug. 26, Zuckerberg told the U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee that he regretted not speaking up about this pressure earlier, as well as other decisions he had made as the owner of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp around removing certain content.
In July 2021, President Joe Biden, a Democrat, said social media platforms like Facebook "are killing people" for allowing misinformation about coronavirus vaccines to be posted on its platform.
Others like former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki and Surgeon General Vivek Murthy publicly said the company was not doing enough to take down misinformation, and was making it harder to fight the pandemic and save lives.
I wonder if the Zuckerborg made old Pete buy back any shares for this favor or if Mark has now also drunk the flavoraide
