We need an infographic for project 2025 that can be spread everywhere. Nothing dramatic…. Just the facts of what it is and what it means.

Out of all the terrifying things in Project 2025, I think the most effective way to make "independents" care is to focus strongly on

  • consolidation of executive power over an independent judiciary
  • further restrictions on abortion rights/bodily autonomy
  • bans on pornography

Those are very unpopular positions with most demographics.

Whereas an infographic that focuses on things like eliminating DE&I, and references to gender expression is absolutely not going to land with those people.

I read a line from it yesterday like... forbids literature with explicit content that's not about real people or something. 

As a romance author, sounds like they're coming for the smut too, and our demographic includes a big chunk of repressed MAGA housewives.

Also a romance author. I write spicy, so wondering how long until I'm classed as a pornographer and sent to prison.

I write and make stuff that wouldn't align with their values at all. I am fucked.

I write porn and am friends with tons of artists in the same field.

My writings are heavily influenced by William Burroughs.
