  • FlyingSquid, I respect you as a member of this community. I’ve mostly enjoyed our interactions here over the last couple of years since I joined. I love your no context comics community. I respect your opinion.

    I know you’re under enormous stress right now, having just moved your family to another country.

    My intention is not to attack you here. My intention is to help you see the truth so that you can make solid, well-founded decisions for your family.

    That’s why I ask for citations on your beliefs: to challenge what I think might be unfounded conclusions. This is a very high-stakes game, because it has inspired you to uproot your family across the globe.

    I want the truth for both of us. If my political party has done something to make this country inhospitable for you or your daughter, I want to know so that I can work within my party to end whatever it is has sent you on the run.

    If it hasn’t, then I want to make that clear so you don’t have to feel that there’s fire at your back when there isn’t.

    I want what’s best for you and your family. I don’t want you to be a political refugee. I don’t want my country to be the kind of place that produces political refugees.


  • I’ve been searching on Project 25 for about 45 minutes now. I haven’t been able to find anyone who both (a) summarizes the document and (b) provides citations in the form of page numbers for their claims about what it says.

    I’m tempted to just read the whole thing and then publish my own summary.

    But until I do that, I’m in the dark about what it says. According to ChatGPT,

    Project 2025 proposes removing protections against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, eliminating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, and enforcing a binary definition of gender.

    Nothing about making gay marriage illegal, nor anything about rounding queer people into camps. But ChatGPT could be wrong. I don’t know.

    What have you read about Project 2025? Did you save the links of things you read about it? Can you link me to whatever convinced you of this?
