I hope it takes a few generations and the tide can be turned. But at this rate, the US might end within the next couple years, not decades. I don't think they are really even trying to hide it. Project 2025 was pretty obvious road map. | | |

| He’s a self described Christian nationalist. He literally believes the laws should reflect Christian morals and views. Like a right wing sharia. And that’s what Project 2025 includes. Things like age verification for porn are meant to be backdoor porn bans, and also meant to hurt gay and lesbian culture. But it’s based on a puritanical Christian theocratic sort of view. |
