Revealed? Did no one read Project 2025m
Honestly, it felt like reading Alice in wonderland on crack. By the time I got to the end it was all so fucking crazy I couldn't remember most of what was in it
Nobody reads anything longer than a paragraph, nobody watches anything longer than a youtube short linked on facebook.
We are here because we allowed comfort and convenience to rot all our collective brains. We are all accountable, we all had a role to play, even if tiny. We could have rallied together, we could have pushed community action and worked harder to preserve progressive ideology. We could have stopped giving so much freedom to the people trying to take away all our freedom. We could have stopped buying shiny new phones and cars and demanded products that last and union protections for our workers.
But no, we thought it was funny when 4channers started screaming about how evil feminists were and laughed it off instead of having their nests burnt down and we instead started our decades-long obsession scrolling for dopamine instead of involving ourselves with the people who run our communities.
If we had claimed the flag, if we had been the ones screaming about our rights to own guns and how we wanted to make america great, if we had been the ones getting arrested for plowing our cars into groups of nazis, we would be the ones with the muscle right now setting social policy. But just saying that is probably setting off some of ya'll and that's what the problem is.
I promise you, the other side isn't balking at rhetoric like that and are actively encouraging it, and have won every round because of it.
You never heard of YouTube summaries or are you too smart for that?
Idc what you have to say with that shitty 'im smarter than everyone else' attitude. You're not.
Boasting about using youtube summaries is not the flex you think it is.
I would let you know at this point you're blocked, but I have a strong feeling you stopped reading after the first paragraph and said "I ain't readin all that."
