I'm genuinely creeped out that someone saying these things can have so much support. Honestly I just want to go home and hide under the bed. A year ago when people said things about Trump like "authoritarian" and "fascist" and whatever else it was kinda true but also some hyperbole. Now it's just plain true.
It was never hyperbole. Remember when he tried to overthrow democracy? Sorry, but you're just coming to acceptance. This isn't new. Ask historians.
Exactly. Anyone saying Trump criticism was just hyped up bullshit is a straight moron, or completely in denial. Sure, he's just saying it plainly now, but it was really fucking obvious previously.
Same as his cultists who can't face reality. They didn't take him seriously and they don't want to admit they were duped. (Yes, that's an intentionally vague "they" because it applies to both sides)
You should see how they talk when they think they're in their echo chambers. Hell, they just do it in the open now.
You should hit the streets and let everyone you know that Project 2025 doesn't have to be real.
