If it makes you feel better, the one genuine silver lining I’ve found is my family in the military say that the odds of these chucklefucks getting full military support is very unlikely.

But is such a small silver lining…

Trump won the popular vote with Hispanics, especially Hispanic men. Black men went more for him too.

I would imagine (if they’re savvy, and the people running Project 2025 definitely are) they’d be more likely to keep him around as long as he was a useful distraction, then have him assassinated at a key point, and blame a liberal.

That would not only get him out of the way so the real work could begin, it would do double-duty of riling up his murderous base and giving them a ‘legitimate’ excuse to start sending the military after blue states and political rivals.

Isn’t just the aging ones sadly. Lots of young people, especially young men, went for Trump. Andrew Tate has taught them well.

What’s your location? What is the soil like (pH, mineral content, clay vs loam vs sand, etc)? Full sun, or are their tall buildings or other trees around?

I remember in a discussion about whether AirBnB was bad or not, and a PoC pointing out that, before AirBnB and prices posted online, hotels would regularly charge PoC higher prices, or ‘somehow’ be suddenly out of rooms when someone with dark skin walked in the door.

They agreed AirBnB was rotten, but they also were glad that the company forced a transparency that the service industry really needed.

Oh boy did they ever. Tearing up fences and burning them, stealing produce out of fields and throwing it at houses, barricading all the adults inside their houses so they couldn’t ruin the fun…

Tasting History did a pretty interesting video on it, actually.
