'Essence of authoritarianism': Expert warns 'Project 2025' would create a Trump 'autocracy'

I define tolerance as not beating the crap out of them when they grab your dick in the men’s room

But I would not allow them to be teachers of young children or serve in the military

There’s no reason they can’t do those jobs. It happens every day, whether you realize it or not.

I never have heard anyone mention Project 2025 except Leftists. It's kind of weird.

You’re kind of weird, if you think that kind of gaslighting is going to fly!

Your hatred of gays is disturbing

Hatred in general is disturbing

Sad that you’re so ruled by (negative) emotions

Gays are a symptom of a sick society

Why anyone would want that is incomprehensible

It’s been a thing forever. Get over it.

They are a bad influence for children and they degrade the military

The Heritage Foundation — a well-funded, influential far-right group in Washington, DC — has been quietly vetting tens of thousands of arch-conservative acolytes to staff up the federal government under the next Republican administration as part of its "Project 2025" presidential transition plan. One scholar of authoritarian movements around the globe is sounding the alarm over what that would mean should former President Donald Trump win a second term in the White House.

During a Saturday segment on MSNBC, New York University professor Ruth Ben-Ghiat told host Ali Velshi that Project 2025 would effectively transform American government from a meritocratic democracy to a regime resembling Vladimir Putin's Russia. She pointed to Heritage's calls to eliminate numerous government agencies that serve as checks on the executive branch as merely one example.

"The essence of authoritarianism is removing restraints on the leader and making him immune from prosecution by domesticating government," Ben-Ghiat said. "And so some of what Project 2025 proposes, like abolishing the DOJ and the FBI is designed for that end, to make it impossible to prosecute Trump and allow him to commit crimes with impunity."

Gays have always existed in every society

Always will

Welcome to reality

Which homosexuality does

Ahhhhh. No it doesn’t.

 

[Lesh]

They are a bad influence for children and they degrade the military

They just are. Kids don’t care unless people like you tell them to care.

And gays often make Great War fighters

 

[Mac-7]

Gays have always existed in every society

Always will

Welcome to reality

So have murderers, thieves, and other undesirable persons

 

[Mac-7]

Kids don’t care unless people like you tell them to care.

Exactly

Children are easily led into a life of perversion unless responsible adults are there to protect them

So have murderers, thieves, and other undesirable persons

“Undesirables”?

Any idea what you sound like there Adolf?

 

[Lesh]

Exactly

Bullshit. You think seeing two gay men holding hands is gonna turn them gay?

Jesus you are a weak person.

Is it that it has that effect on you? Is that what disturbs you so?

I didn’t hear him say the last part. That was you.

Save your angry personal insults for someone with thin skin

I’m not a lib who must conform to what the beautiful people on tv tell me to think

 

[Mac-7]

Bullshit. You think seeing two gay men holding hands is gonna turn them gay?

Not a single incident

But homos come at the culture in waves like a banzi attack

Children are exposed to a constant stream of subliminal messages

Remember this from the San Francisco gays?
