    This is just the start. He’s going to purge every competent person who believes in the national mythology / shows an ounce of backbone and replace them with incompetent yes men. These people tend to be very intelligent, resourceful, and well-connected. I don’t think this will be the last we see of them. Something tells me that giving a whole lot of people who plotted the overthrows of multiple foreign governments lots of time off together maybe isn’t his most brilliant idea yet.

      Straight from the Project 2025 manual. It’s crazy that I tried to get people to read it before the election and I got called a conspiracy theorist, but here he is actually executing the plan and these same people just deny it’s happening. I can’t help but think they prefer to be ignorant.

        Welcome to 1930s Germany.

        A bunch of ignorant, uneducated people experiencing economic hardship that vote in a proto-authoritarian out of desperation because their minds were warped by propaganda and hatred.

        Expect things to get much worse.
