If you were under the illusion that Trump is going to improve the situation for the Palestinians in any way, I have a bridge to sell you…

Inconsistency is the only thing Trump can be counted on to do reliably.

2 Trump administrations, 2 pandemics…

You don’t fix things by picking the worse option on purpose.

That’s exactly what the electorate just did.

That’s utter lunacy.

I fully agree

goons to wield guns

Such as Hegseth?

That seems to be all he was when he was enlisted.

part of it is picking one that doesn’t drive me batty and taking some time to work with it

CAD and 3D modeling can look overwhelming for a beginner, but there are some tools that are pretty quick to pick up the basics of.

Tinkercad is probably the fastest for most people to get some basic results from.

Personally, I have been working on learning FreeCAD. The newest version is a major step forward in capability and the learning curve isn’t too steep - especially with some of the tutorials I’ve found on youtube.

Blender is it’s own beast - super powerful, but very different that anything else I’ve tries to use.

holding any such event in a country culturally and ecologically most similar to Mordor seems weirder.

Maybe they’re hoping for a “This is what your country will look like if everyone continues to ignore this problem” reaction from the attendees?

Or maybe it’s just the place that offered the most kickbacks to the organizers…

If nukes are an excuse to prevent all conventional intervention, then nukes are a free pass to commit any crimes one wishes against non-nuclear powers

That is the assumption Russia is operating under.

More precise than dropping a bomb on an appartment building, I suppose…

But, yeah, not the best example of preventing collateral damage.

this is a fringe right-wing party with one seat in Japanese Parliament’s lower house.

One seat too many, if this is the attitude of their leader.

should keep the rest of the world entrained.

Sorry, but you guys stopped being fun to watch a while ago.

It’s now gone well beyond train-wreck levels of horrified “can’t look away” viewing.

Now they’re seeing the ideas outlined in there and probably freaking out.

As they should be.

Hopefully they’ll wake up enough by mid-terms to vote for some level of damage control.

Why isn’t that benefitting the working class? These are real questions. Trump has all the wrong answers

The existance of people like Trump and Musk are the answer.

These orgs could use your donations now more than ever.

As well as your volunteer time

Not really sure what more could be done to inform people of the dangers of Project 2025

Most people werent aware of it.

And of those who had heard the name, some number of people assumed it was nothing more than yet another impotent rage document from some fringe group that was so outrageous as to be beyond the possibility of actually doing.

Of all the bullshit that Trump yelled about, I think actual death squads is relatively low on the list of things he would actually be able to accomplish.

For the first year or so he will be too focused on trying to punish the justice system that was so “unfair” to him.

I was being a little sarcastic in my first post,

Your mistake was not using the /s to indicate that.

Poe’s law is a thing.

Remember Poe’s law.

I really hope that was intended as sarcasm and that you simply omitted the /s

I very much doubt we’ve seen the last attempt on his life.

And it’s just as likely to come from a disillusioned historically republican as from someone more to the left.
