I don‘t have the words to express how horrible this document is. Reading it closely requires patience, and the ability to stay focused, not get carried away with the anger you feel when reading it. It is a massive pile of propaganda, and a lot of it can be hard to understand, which may be by design. However, there is a lot that is very clear. There are strange, made up words often used, and ‘just under the surface‘ type of aggressions, ‘toned⬇️

JenniferEgnor down‘ hatred. Many of the wishlist policies are ridiculous and will have you reading them again, just to be sure you understand them correctly, because they are so disgusting. There are some very bad ideas in this document that will cause great harm if allowed to go into place. If the Republican Party takes back control of the government, this document will go into effect, and there will be no one to mitigate it because those individuals will⬇️ 3mo
JenniferEgnor all be gone. This hate group known as ‘The Heritage Foundation‘ has been writing documents like this for past Republican presidents for decades. The belief in the mythology of the straight, white, Christian, patriarchy is evident in the very name of the organization. This is not the America we want or need. This is a fascist, Christian Nationalist vision. This is it folx. If we go over this cliff, there‘s no coming back from it. I will be⬇️ 3mo
JenniferEgnor continuing to read further, listening to more podcasts, etc, to help me further understand this document. Yes, it really does say that ‘Sesame Street is woke‘. It really does oppose NPR, PBS, the BBC. It really does say it will abolish the Department of Education. It really does obsess on the straight, nuclear, quiverfull American family. It really does mention decline of the white race. It despises DEI, it denies the real problem of⬇️ 3mo
JenniferEgnor climate change. It really does talk about getting rid of the weather programs that tell us about what‘s happening in the oceans, which is vital for hurricane preparedness. I could go on here. It‘s just really, really bad. Read it for yourself and warn others. More info here: https://votersoftomorrow.org/gen-zs-guide-to-project-2025/ (edited) 3mo
JenniferEgnor It is just as misogynist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, racist, classist, ablest, and ageist as you heard it is. They are telling you to exactly what they are going to do. Believe them. 3mo

Starting to read this massive pile of propaganda filth.
It should‘ve been named Mandate for Totalitarian/Authoritarian Nightmare: The Fascist Promise

Mehso-so

This is the Project 2025 you‘ve been hearing so much about. I‘ve been following it for a couple years now. I read this from a giant 922 page pdf I downloaded. If you search “Mandate for Leadership” it is not terribly hard to find. Much of it reads as boring policy-wonk navel-gazing, but if you really stop to think of the consequences of even the boring bits, it‘s quite terrifying. I marked as so-so because it should be read or skimmed.👇🏻

Ericalambbrown Apart from being a blueprint to usher in authoritarianism, the outcome of these policies would be absolutely devastating for our economy. The wish to dismantle all regulatory agencies would leave almost every facet of our lives in jeopardy of lacking safety precautions. Food supply, energy, medical resources, everything. There is very little any truly principled conservative would agree with in this plan. 3mo
Ericalambbrown It is meant to elevate the very wealthy to a Soviet-style oligarchy ruling class while erasing the personal autonomy of the middle class and working poor. I‘d encourage anyone concerned about how democracies in decline tip over into authoritarian/fascist regimes to seek out the work of Ruth Ben-Ghiat or Anne Applebaum. You can even search for podcasts featuring them if you‘d like a shorter tutorial on the subject. 3mo

Suet624 Great post. (And definitely terrifying.) Thank you for posting. 3mo
Ericalambbrown @Suet624 sure! It‘s important folks know just how extreme this plan really is and have the opportunity to see the document for themselves. 3mo
BookmarkTavern Thank you for sharing this! 3mo
TieDyeDude Part of me wishes they'd get their way just so they could see the horrors of the outcomes, but the fundamentals of a democracy isn't really something you can play around with 3mo
JenniferEgnor I‘ve known about it for a while but am only just now reading it. Filth and propaganda…Gulp. 🤢 3mo
