I think by non-partisan, the PP means career government employees as opposed to political appointees. But, you knew that right? There aren’t many crooks in the civil service. It’s not accurate to refer to career federal employees as crooked. |
It is if you are a laweless authoritariian who wants to clean out career civil service so your cronies can go in like jackels and shut everything down or worse, steal from the US treasury as happened in during the Trump years. |
Yeah. We just want to do our work, get paid fairly, pay our mortgage, and feed our family. I went into government work in part because I didn't want to be part of the business world. |
Then they couldn’t say we were guilty of hyperbole. It’s a fun catch-22! Like how the GOP lied to everyone - even under oath - that Roe was settled law. Remember that? They said it’s settled law, obviously we will respect it, all the while they were installing the machinery to erase it. Same thing here. So imagine which beliefs your maga hat friends and family most want to force on us, then when they say they’d never, you know they’re lying. |
Project 25 is the end of the U.S. democracy.
Vote Republican if you want a Christo- fascist nation. |
I am an atheist and hate Trump, but in all seriousness would prefer a Christo-fascist nation over a woke-fascist nation. |
Did you look at Page 5? I bet you didn't. Where they talk about jailing teachers and labeling as sexual offenders if they let a child see a book they deem "offensive"? About banning the words "reproductive heath" from every piece of federal legislation in the country? About banning inclusion? Read page 5 people. Your lives are over if Republicans take over. |
As a radical feminist most of page 5 looks great! Page 4 however is more concerning. |
We'd have controlled immigration, and a president who projects power so that problems like Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan don't happen in the first place. He would also take steps towards crime prevention, such as speaking out against much of the nonsense of DA's that don't prosecute violent crime because of "restorative justice" pushed by the left. |
Spin that out for us. What do you see as the upsides to a white nationalist, christofascist nation? |
Then we will get the government we deserve. Question, do "woke" people opposed radical Christianity? Because from my vantage point, "the woke" simply want to live their lives and be as respected as everyone else. That is different than imposing, through the instruments of government, morality, ethics, etc of a fundamentalist nature. So if you want to live the reality of The Handmaid's Tale, that is what the Christo-Fascists want. if that is your world, then by all means, go for it. |
It’s interesting to see how angry and completely uncaring some atheists are, and I’ve seen several on the internet, not just the one above. They’d rather see women become chattel and have no rights, to be followed by the likely return to actual slavery for Black people and expulsion of varying ethnicities and immigrant groups, as well as atheists themselves getting punished and they think that’s better than “woke” politics? I don’t think some of these people have really thought this through. It bears repeating that a few short years ago, it was unthinkable that Roe would be overturned. Many of these same unconcerned people (men, usually) told us we were hysterical, overreacting and in general not thinking clearly. Roe is gone. The same could happen and these guys who are happy to see women’s rights hacked away are going to discover they will not be protected either. |
Christo fascism is a made up nonsense term used by people who are unserious thinkers but desperate to appear high status. Fascism is horrible, but all things considered it would be better for most people to be oppressed by Christian idiot than woke idiots. At least the Christians can agree in theory that slavery is wrong and it’s wrong to murder innocent civilians. |
OMG. Slavery exists today and has always existed. Do you know who were the first major group to ban it? White Christian males. Educate yourself. |
Not to cut you off here but I’m not interested in your take. I was specifically asking that “trump hating atheist” to why they think living in a white nationalist christofascist nation would be preferable to living in a “woke-fascist” nation (whatever the heck that means). They haven’t bothered to answer. |
