Ask HN: What is the end goal of DT and EM?
As the title says, what is the end goal of these 2 and those in the administration pushing various agendas? Is it capturing all the data about everyone in the US? Is it deporting everyone who is not a US citizen? Is it jailing everyone who speaks up against them?
- pwg 2y agoAny answer requires us to be mind readers, and we can't read their minds. The closest you might get to learning something about a possible 'end goal' is to read up on Project 2025 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025).

I believe that the fascist agenda, like all fascist agendas, comes from a playbook used repeatedly (Germany, Spain, Italy, etc. ) as means to grab power and money ... at any cost to others.

And in this case, privatization of government. https://www.thenerdreich.com/reboot-elon-musk-ceo-dictator-doge/ https://www.thenerdreich.com/reboot-elon-musk-ceo-dictator-d...

Looks like this might ultimately a mental illness or two (like Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD)), some need that wasn't fulfilled and/or drug-addled (ketamine or what not) disassociation from reality, empathy and in general what makes the rest of us all human.
