\ Why are they* intentionally destroying our republic.

He’s not doing this in a bubble. This is a bloody conspiracy. What do they know that we don’t? Are they planning a mass culling?

Cause it sure seems like we’re leaving ourselves open to allowing the next pandemic or natural or man-made disaster to simply blaze through the ranks like a well-fueled wildfire.

It’s not just the US citizens that the spoiled techs, crazy billionaires/corporations and people behind the curtains want to change and further control their sense of security and safety-their end goal is the entire planet!! The US was the ultimate test and it isn’t going as smoothly as they planned Project 2025 to go!!

They have allowed the rich to become much too powerful and corrupt so there is nothing left for monetary gain in their lives anymore. They resolve to make the rest of us miserable as they have to put the entire world’s economic system into chaos so that it falls apart and can be rebuilt again. It used to be backed by gold, then oil and now they want to force feed AI down each other’s throats anyway they can find a way to do it. It doesn’t matter if they have to use WARFARE to make money from the AI weaponry and they had to disrupt the Democratic narrative in world to make it happen. It’s a sick-wicked gross corporate corruption happening across all of the world!!! All of these Authoritarian regimes have been created to make money.

It’s not a conspiracy when we have active ongoing genocide(s), and evidences such as the holocaust and the Cambodian genocide at the hands of the Khmer Rouge.

Project2025 wants to reduce America's population of 340 million to 50 million 'deserving' (white) people.

That's roughly 1 out of 7, leaving less than 15% alive.

They hate 85% of us!

You know what that means?

That means we have the numbers to relegate them to the dustbin of history.

EDIT: Someone asked for a source, and I could've SWORN it was something I got from BlueSky last year or so... but it's not exactly something Google will happily confirm for you, and of COURSE I can't find anything NOW. I even did an AI-assisted search and they said there's NOTHING like that, so I guess I have to retract the above... for now. Feel like I'm taking crazy pills, but that's how they get ya... FML

Anyway, they wouldn't have written 900 PAGES of "who what can we eliminate" if what they meant was, "Every American should have best-in-class options, so let's figure out a way to pay for it ALL!"

The right to choose what they allowed to do with their body. A good majority of the GOP has also have spoken out loud, that they’d like to restrict or repeal women’s right to vote. They are hindering education loans partly because they want women to stay at home and take care of the men and kids. I believe pretty much everyone in this administration has spoke out loud about women being home. Funny thing is, even the women saying it out loud, Caroline, Kirk’s wife, Millers wife… they all work. It’s okay for them, just not you.

They know the same thing you do - resources are scarce, climate change is real, and the world will be largely uninhabitable unless we either work together, or 70% of us die.

When will it be uninhabitable?

u/AspiringOne 1m ago

Every single day, every single elected official had and has a chance to do the right thing and become a climate hero. Instead, they take the easy way out. In Trump’s case, all he cares about are his his financial account balances. How it got to where it got makes absolutely no difference to him, criminally obtained or otherwise. He likely gets a hard on from knowing what he’s made as the world’s most notorious criminal and mafia boss.

Another question is what does the world do when the most powerful man on the planet and the most wealthy man on the planet are both pathological megalomaniacs? Do we join together to defeat the evil mafia? Or does humanity go down in flames because the AI horse is already out of the barn, no one can stop it and the only person who can actually demand regulation and controls refuses to (because fuck all of us).

It's pretty obvious when you start doing the math on how many people the earth can support indefinitely. The number is closer to 2.5 billion than it is 8+ billion. The extreme is like 16 billion, but means intense scarcity, while 2.5 billion is comfort. Current Earth human population is over 8 billion.

Do we think the billionaires are choosing 16 or 2.5?

Don't panic, this have been spoken of before the IRS will become the ERS. External Revenue Service, money from the tariffs, many things will be returned to the state level. These things were talked about his last term, the tariffs were not mentioned. Why do you think he been wanting to decrease the size of the Federal government? Less cost, less overhead. Many things need to be given back to the state. They had us all believing the country would not survive without the IRS. The IRS in the beginning was suppose to be only for the rich, and last just a few years. They lied to us in 1913

u/ApprehensiveGold2773 4h ago

Society protects people who would otherwise struggle to survive. They believe this allows incompetence or poor judgment to persist. A crisis, competition, or collapse supposedly removes those who cannot adapt. The survivors supposedly rebuild a stronger or more capable society.

Just something I've been thinking about, not sure if this is a real goal of them.

What's scarier is that they could use social media behaviour to figure out who to keep and who to cull.

It is akin to or is a mass psychotic breakdown. Denial of truth becomes the key affirmation of belonging. At some point there is a failure and the structure collapses, sometimes catastrophically.

Nazi Germany might be offered as one such example. But a better example and entertainingly extreme is the Muenster rebellion, look it up.

As a possible consideration this is baked into America politics as a particular flavor of idiocy reflecting both an overt and unconscious denial of racism, though many societies have such idiocies.

u/crazyhorse0079 3h ago edited 3h ago

That was the plan all along! Just the fact that Putin wanted him to win and took steps to help him win really should’ve given people some pause before voting for him. But clearly his supporters are just too stupid to really think about it. It probably didn’t even occur to them or they just didn’t believe that Russia interfered with our elections because they did and do. Imagine gleefully voting for the guy that is backed by our enemy who wants to destroy us or at least knock us down quite a bit. It’s well-known Putin wants Russia to be the superpower that the Soviet Union once was. He does this by getting a puppet elected POTUS, who won’t interfere with his invading of sovereign nations. Who will undermine NATO at every point and possibly pull us out of it which Trump wants to do. Also to destroy our economy, our standing with our allies and trading partners. It’s really a shame that people just don’t think outside of. “Oh, IDK I like him, he’s a businessman, and he was great on the apprentice” God help us all.

Just a small amount spent on ICE/DHS to suppress any objections while Trump hides in his fortified ballroom.

Exactly. He loves tariffs and needs to be validated on his stupid ideas.

I'm sure that someone told him "you know, after the Civil War there were a lot of tariffs and no income tax, and the tariffs covered half the revenue and there was a large surplus". Because he has the analytical capacity of a mushroom, he just parroted parts of what he heard, tried to apply it to the current period, and doesn't even realize how ridiculous that is.

Also claiming that this was a great ecomic period in America is false. There's a reason why the period was called the Gilded Age and not the Golden Age. On the surface things seemed prosperous (because of industrialization) but when you scratched the surface you realized that there wasn't actual gold.

He isnt intentionally destroying the republic. He doesnt know what that word even means. He is just looking out for his own interest, and as a billionaire, he doesnt like paying taxes or competition. Tariffs remove foreign competition and no-taxes means he gets to keep more money. Thats it. Just selfish interests

The why is obvious, the question is how many MAGA’s fall for it in November.

Trump: "Destroy the country."

Literally every single Republican: "Yes, sir."

I always knew every conservative was a dipshit, but sure let's sink this thing like a boulder. Go for it, morons. Do it.

He doesn't know he is a idiot that believes hes super intelligent, the only intelligence this man has is social intelligence and charisma.

But he is a very stupid person, and when you elect stupid people stupid things happen.

Google Project 2025 and the Butterfly Revolution, and then look who Trump appointed as the Director of the Office of Management and Budget.

Technocrats want to destabilize the United States and reform it as a servile fiefdom under the control of tech billionaires, rather than an elected government.

Debt is too large and they want to purposely drive up inflation to make the debt "cheaper." It all makes a lot more sense when you see it through that lens. I'm not saying I agree btw. I rather the budget get balanced and they make changes to IMPOUNDMENT rules & budget requirements but this is where we are at.

u/Fun_Hippo_9760 2h ago

To fill his chest and avoid prison. It’s as simple as that. He doesn’t give a damn about the country.

Because Putin has videos of him fucking young girls.

He doesn’t know. He’s not smart enough to understand. You’re giving this guy way too much credit. He’s not intentionally trying to destroy the country. He’s trying to grift as much money as possible and he doesn’t care if the country is destroyed in the process because it’s irrelevant to him and his. They already have what they want. When his own staff tries to explain things to him, he brushes them off and refuses to hear anything outside of what he wants. He’s not just stupid, he’s like REALLY stupid. Everything he has he was either given or someone else showed him how to grift off people. The dude was given money, was told by his father that if he slapped his name on building he gats paid for it and that’s what he did with everything. That’s been his M.O. since day 1. If his name is on 100 different things, it doesn’t matter if a few go broke, he’s still making money off the rest.

u/TheCenterOfEnnui 2h ago

It's not intentional, he really doesn't know what the fuck he's doing. He thinks the shit he's doing is actually good for the US. He's just a fucking moron. It's as simple as that. We elected an idiot to the WH.

How wealthy buddies have been building bunkers and setting up shop outside the U.S. while hoarding a great deal of our nations wealth. The U.S. in the right hands is the one power that threatens their dominance. By weakening the U.S. they are free to build their own mini empire unabated.

u/Wooden_Grape_197 1h ago

The answer is in project '24. They want to cut the country down and rebuild it in their own image

u/EnOeZ 1h ago

He never wanted to make America better. He just wanted to make himself better and it is working. He is richer, has a new plane and is safe from prosecution... for now.

Even the Epstein files with the compromising parts on him and his crimes are still hidden.

u/TwoGrots 1h ago

He is saying this to try to do something he thinks people want. (Yes people want more money so they can live, not paying taxes isn’t a reasonable way to do it)

It’s a shroud because he knows it can never actually happen and will get shot down and will make someone else look bad, rather than actually doing something meaningful.

Trump is genuinely very stupid. He might know that abolishing the income tax would be terrible for the economy, but that's a very low bar.

1

u/Standard-Fisherman78 37m ago

u/Ok-Courage2177 19m ago

My guess is that he knows his time left on the planet is limited and he wants to take the world with him.

u/Senior_Torte519 18m ago

Because the super wealthy have amassed a networked abundance of goods specfically stationed across trhe US to create a system where isolated but connected kingdoms can still operate as the rest of the fucking savages war with eachother over a can of TAB. While the ones who remain loyal out of fear, survival and eleavating their own status will be their sword and shield, their hammer and sicle and be paid with those goods from the coffers of the mega-wealths and praise them for that which they receive.

The US has been needing a hard reset to get us off the high horse we’ve been on since the end of WWII. It’ll suck for a long time but it will eventually get better.
