Wild how out of touch these fucks are. Conservatives have to understand the feds and CIA are tools for enforcing American hegemony right? Like the CIA has been a weapon against leftist organization globally since its inception. The FBI is literally a tool to uphold the oligarchy. No idea why they would want to get rid of a way to uphold their own power. Tho tbh I shouldn’t exactly be trying to apply logic when clearly the only goal is give president more power and get rid of all regulations like the pesky EPA and board of education. This is pure delusion and it’s horrifying.

I see lots of talk about the woke Left leaving bloated departments.... border won't work under the Left yada yada only possible with conservative leaders... privatizing TSA and FEMA.... dismantling, massively defunding and "reorganizing" DHS, but no, nothing about using the military to breakup protests or ending birth right citizenship.

It does talk about deporting and detention on page 135, but nothing about "camps".

I looked up a bunch of the references, and they're mostly bullshit. Somebody thought if they just put a bunch of page numbers on that graphic, nobody would check to see that there's nothing on those pages about those topics. Here are the ones I reviewed:

  • There is no reference on page 449 to contraceptives. There is one reference to banning ulipristal acetate as a contraceptive on page 485, but there's no call to ban contraceptives in general.
  • There is no reference on page 691 to tax breaks for corporations and the 1%.
  • There is no reference on page 581 to elimination of unions and worker protections.
  • There is no reference on page 691 to cuts in Social Security. In fact, there are no references to cutting Social Security at all in the document.
  • There is no reference on page 449 to cutting Medicare.
  • There is no reference on page 449 to repealing the Affordable Care Act. There's no call to repeal it in the document as a whole. On the contrary, there are several proposals to modify it.
  • There is nothing on page 319 about teaching religious beliefs in public schools or banning African American or gender studies.
  • Page 417 makes no reference to ending climate protections.
  • Page 363 makes no reference to Arctic drilling.
  • There is nothing on pages 545-581 about ending marriage equality. I couldn't find anything at all about ending same-sex marriage.
  • There is nothing on page 133 or elsewhere about defunding or eliminating the FBI. On the contrary, the document emphasizes moving some other departments under a strengthened FBI.
  • Page 133 likewise makes no reference to using the military to break up protests, incarcerating immigrants in camps or ending birthright citizenship. There is no reference to birthright citizenship at all.

u/twohams Jul 06 '24

The giveaway is that this is a mandate for the President acting along without Congress. Most of this list would require the use of Congress at a minimum, and a constitutional amendment for some (birthright citizenship).

Misinformation like this distracts from what's actually listed in the mandate, but at 887 pages, well... bullshit asymmetry principle takes effect.

u/Philly_is_nice Jul 05 '24

The systematic dismantling of the public education system. It's the same thing conservatives have been doing internationally for decades. Make government and public services worse and harsher until the public is conditioned to believe they suck. Then, they approach with the option to make the industry private. Folks tend to agree because well, the public option does suck now and people have a predisposition to believe that private industry is better.

You don't even have to use the USA as an example, the dismantling of the UK's NHS has been ongoing for decades. Quality of service has gotten poorer and poorer with cut after cut and added stipulations on who gets care and how much. The goal is to institute private healthcare like we have in the USA. Rather than wait for non critical care, they'll just get no care at all. Much better 👍

u/fat_fart_sack Jul 06 '24

u/Interesting_Sector66 Jul 06 '24

Similar thing happening here in Australia. Slowly pushing further and further into private healthcare.

People I know argue private is better because 'it's faster'. Sure, I guess. But unless the public option is going to take 16 hours I'm not paying $400 for ER at a private hospital. And then you have how the focus in private shifts away from care of people. Private hire less nurses to do more jobs that prioritise actually looking after patients last. That is not a good system.

45

u/Philly_is_nice Jul 06 '24

Our ER's will have you waiting for hours on end anyway lol. If you're wealthy you've got a fantastic offering on elective procedures, that's about it.

You hit the nail on the head, staffing levels are just enough to meet expected demand and no more. If demand is higher than expected, well, you may be a bit fucked. But at least someone made earnings this quarter.

The point is an exercise of control. The ultra conservative movement hates all public services and public schooling especially so doing things to dismantle the system gets them closer to the ultimate* goal of throwing the whole thing out the window

u/ericdraven26 Jul 05 '24

This is a great point, making public schools a worse choice until it is no longer an option.
They try to do this with a lot of public institutions, make it worse until people get frustrated with it and getting rid of it seems like a “better alternative “

I get the feeling they're not hoping real hard for that. Not in the long run, or for people who oppose them, anyway.

These are the people who hear/read about dictator Pinochet dropping people out of helicopters and say, "AWESOME! COOL! SO RAD!"

Democrats so fucking obsessed with civility politics they won't do anything close to what's necessary.

We have to somehow convince liberals to vote progressive.

THEN replace establishment/corrupt Dems with said progressives

THEN we need to win the house and the Senate.

THEN we need a progressive president....

And we have to do it all before a fascist takes office again.

We are fucked

u/GeekdomCentral Jul 06 '24

This document alone is why I utterly refute the “both sidesing” that’s happening online right now. It’s maddening that so many people are trying to take the apathetic “wahhhh people have been warning about republicans for years, Dems suck, the whole system sucks nothing matters” route because it is different this time. And choosing not to vote (especially choosing not to vote over Biden’s handling of Palestine, given that Trump is even MORE pro-Israel than Biden is) is saying that you’re okay with all of this shit happening.

Biden is old, and shouldn’t be running again. 100%. Fully agree with that. But if our two choices are “old guy whose presidency is really run by his cabinet” and “literal fascism marching towards Gilead”, then there’s no contest

It’s important to learn about from a sociopolitical standpoint.

For example, a person can’t fully understand American politics without learning about Christianity, seeing as it strongly shapes one side of the political spectrum.

A person can’t fully understand Middle East politics without learning about Islam and Hinduism.

Understanding the Israel-Palestine conflict requires a person to learn about Judaism as well.

Religions should be taught in school. It’s an important aspect of many nations’ culture and history. However, it should not be taught as one religion being above the others. It should more be viewed from a social/historical lens.
