The only hope for the US is to survive until the midterms, and maybe people stop being so ####ing stupid. I'll admit that put that way, things are not looking hopeful.

Already the U.S. is almost unrecognizable from what it was even 10 years ago. At the end of these 4 years it'll be full-on MAGAville.

So, it stands to reason, either you are being false, or you're completely ignorant. Either way, running around throwing stones at Fuzz as a "conspiracy theorist" is pretty egregious if you haven't taken the time to at least learn about this topic.

Also, it's not a conspiracy if it's out in the open with published documents. I think you misunderstand the term.

I have never posted in or even looked at this thread to my knowledge. was hoping to find something about tariffs (big mistake) However, until trump enacted those orders, Was project 2025 a conspiracy theory? Fuzz has been openly hateful to anyone even whispering conspiracy theories for years. highly hypocritical.

Sorry to disrupt the I hate Trump conversations. As you all were.

You do?

That's dumb.

I'm writing about who is getting what they deserve. And it's not just MAGA voters.

Is this your idea of an apology? No, it wasn't ever a conspiracy theory, it was a real thing people were concerned would be implemented, and MAGA and Republicans lied publicly about not knowing about it, or downplaying that they would follow it. So no, there is nothing hypocritical about me pointing out that they were lying, and that Americans were dumb for not taking the warnings seriously.


It's ok man, you can eat crow on this one. If I am this wrong about something, I eat the crow. Take a bite, it ain't so bad.

I bet if you read the Project 2025 document you will find some information about what they plan to do on tariffs. I mean...you'll have to read, so that may present a challenge, but I bet it's in there.

Except Project 2025 is most certainly not a conspiracy theory.
It's very clearly stated and published agenda that is right out in the open.

Trump (the man who lies about everything) said he didn't know what it was (despite hiring almost everyone who worked on it).
The guys who wrote it were very clear that Trump did know and was just saying he didn't so he could get elected.

Trump's VP pick wrote the freaking foreword for the book.

On Trump's first day in office he signed executive orders to start implementing the policies in project 2025.

Trump is following a plan that he lied about, and is very much embedded into his administration via the people he has hired.

"The WEF are a shadowy cabal bent on world domination", is a conspiracy theory.

"Trump is doing what exactly what anyone who was paying attention knew he was going to do, and here is the readily available document that he is following" is not a conspiracy theory, it's a verifiable fact.

The ONLY country that would is China. Canada needs to become besties with China. Oh. No? Then I guess we’ll be Americans. And why would you go die at the US / Canada border? Allegedly free healthcare isn’t worth my life. Sorry, it isn’t. The delta in quality of life between here and there? Ain’t that big.
The biggest opponents to USA taking over Canada would be MAGA once they all realize that it means Canadians (and immigrants who live in Canada) are going to start coming for their jobs once that border is opened.

Project 2025 was never a conspiracy theory. What are you even talking about? It was a unified policy document put together by a conservative think-tank that the republicans adopted. It was never secret, it was always out there. The only question was to what extent Trump would embrace the policies.

That's like saying Obamacare was a conspiracy theory right up until the moment it became law, despite Obama campaigning on it forever.

The word 'tariff' appears 188 times in the Project 2025 document.

Thanks for sharing; now following this amazing sub-reddit. Watching MAGA slowly clue in that their faces are the ones being eaten by the leopards is hilarious!

You’re going to get off the high horse of calling people hypocrites and talking about interrupting the “i hate Trump” conversations if you’re still asking questions like “was Project 2025 a conspiracy theory?” and refusing to look into it. Like, we get it, you had no idea what you were talking about but were desperate to take a shot at Fuzz anyway. So cool, thanks!

Just read man. Use your brain. It’s not just there to make sure you remember how to breathe.

You’re right, I’m sorry, that’s so much better and different that it was worth clarifying and definitely changes the conversation entirely.

I will ask though, How is this any different then the WEF conspiracy theory? all the facts for that also being a agenda are well discussed.
In case you’re actually serious, you haven’t been paying attention if you claim to never have heard of Project 2025. As for comparing it to the WEF, geeze.

I think being an underground insurgent might be kinda fun. Making car bombs to take out American officers, creating anti-American memes to rally morale among the resistance, riding a moose into battle, etc etc.

I wonder if any European countries would grant Canadians citizenship if Canada became a state. Always wanted to live over there somewhere.

Check your ancestry, might be some route towards citizenship elsewhere.
