In Hungary, state institutions like the police of the tax bureau only target people and companies outside of Fidesz’es interest group. That’s what they want to adapt, so every company will fall in line with Project 2025.

I woke up much sooner than when they ate my face. It was when they stripped a “supposed foreigner” of their company. The proof of them being a foreigner were having “stein” in their name, a “suspicious nose not common among real Hungarians”, not being religious, and supporting liberalism.

I’m a disabled person, who voted Fidesz in 2010, and my face got eaten by the leopards. Due to the nature of my disability, I won’t receive any help, I’m barred from driving cars thus barred from many local jobs. Those who can are re-examined every few years, and even amputees are body-searched sometimes for “tied-up limbs”, and are preferred to instead seek some job which is specifically made for the disabled, which thanks to local version of ableism, is largely something specialized for the intellectually disabled, and the job descriptions often read like they were lifted from those godawful ableist jokes.

Yeah, but a lot of conservatives, and by extension fascists, are extremely hypocritical on the surface, except they like to use “hypocrisy” as a tool against their opponents, and by “hypocrisy”, I mean not following the strawman version of your ideology. I personally call this as “rulebending”, they’re manipulating their opponents rules to be even higher and thus choking them with it.

On a deeper level they just want a lot of power, which includes them being above the law, as long as they’re loyal to the dictator/king. If project 2025 succeeds, expect one of them getting caught on live with real CP, maybe even raping a child, then will just go “so what? I can do this, you are not allowed to!”.

For fascists, freedom of speech equals saying slurs.

Different standards. Conservatives did this since the fall of kings, and doing this while want to reinstate them.

If the opponent messes up, they’re incompetent. If they themselves, it’s either someone else’s problem, just part of being human, or try to cover it up with the media until everyone forgets it.

One party has principles, arguably too much in some sense.

The other either just voting for them because they love tradition so much they need to vote someone conservative, just want less taxes, or outright just evil and want to see the suffering of their fellow human beings if those happen to belong to the wrong group.

You go high, we go low!

The Heritage Foundation existed for a very long time, and many far-right evangelicals wanted to take over the US. They played a long game. They even sunk 1 billion dollars into the whole project, and needed to learn from some other countries like Hungary and Russia. At least the HF has a lot of ties to the Orbán regime of Hungary, our only luck is it’s on slow burn thanks to the EU.

I think it will give a rise to blocking ads through intercepting network connections…

Wait until Trump gets reelected, then the American “criminal monitoring” systems will be used to target political dissident too. Similar thing already happening in Hungary, except Orbán is currently forced to pretend he still a supporter of democracy.

I once made up an idea for an action thriller, called “President Psycho”, where a serial killer gets elected as the president, and immediately legalizes murder involving brutal torture for himself and his friends, if committed to the “right target”. God my ideas are becoming reality before even realizing them, and the worst is that I had an idea for an edgy magical girl metroidvania that set in a dystopian world which has been completely overthrown by fascists, all while I just started to take more seriously a much more simpler and smaller game idea (Arkanoid clone that is basically a hacking minigame but bigger).

Does that immunity ruling also apply to the VP? If yes, then Kamala Harris can do a few things, all she needs is a fully loaded handgun.

And you have all the reasons to be terrified, the US in case of a Trump victory will either:

a) Go isolationist, dissolve the NATO, then let the power vacuum to be filled by Russia and China (one is better than the other), all while a big ultranationalist movement will claim to fix the issues.

b) Make whatever insanity Trump’s christofascist call “morals” into the global standards for human rights, heavily censor the internet, etc.

A second Trump victory will have dire consequences for the rest of the world.

Hell, people in the military just need to go on and execute the offending members of the supreme court, the house, etc., then just say “the president told us to do so”.

Good luck with that, the fans of the potential dictators have most of the guns, law enforcement is packed with fascists, etc…

(Although I agree.)

Even if he manages to bounce back from time to time, it’s only going to be downhill from there.

I also do think it’s primarily a money issue. Some of it might be those donors wanting the two parties to do different things, by basically leading the democrats into their graves.

These are hugely unpopular moves from the supreme court.
