Project 2025 has been an open plan for years and the level of coordination between political elites aligned with the Heritage Foundation and tech industry radicals is obvious on its face.
If the goal was reducing fraud and waste, accurate accounting would be a core principle and this wouldn't happen. They aren't because it's not. Their goal was rapid destruction of the US government apparatus to prevent oversight and accountability that would enable preservation and restoration of constitutional government. Seems like it's working.
- dingnuts 2y agoTo me it "seems like" the CIA is being attacked and its extinction burst through the media it controlled for the last generation is causing a blast of hysteria. Everything published in media organizations that until recently were receiving federal funds should be viewed through that light. They're mainly mad because their gravy train stopped. I don't like the Yarvinists doing the attacking but the old regime acting like it was a representation of the will of the people at this point is pretty offensive. There's a reason people voted against them. It's just a shame that we couldn't have voted for liberal ideals instead of neoreactionary ones. If we get very lucky maybe we will wind up with the CIA defanged and without completely sliding into authoritarianism! a person can dream, anyway..
- aisenik 2y agoMy fellow Americans need to stop inventing wish-fulfillment fantasies that everything's going to be ok and fine. It's a coup by the worst elements of American society (eugenicists! Christian nationalists! white supremacists!) in collusion with oligarchs, dictators, and autocrats. People are acting like the most disingenuous and dishonest people are scions of truth. Half of y'all are excited cuz you seem to think you'll get to strap a nuke to your bike and screw a 15 year old razorgirl. This isn't Snow Crash, it's real life, you WILL be impacted by mass famine, unmanaged pandemics, economic depression, geopolitical balkanization, and war. These are the outcomes made possible through DOGE.
