    So… I’ve been meaning to have an actual conversation with someone about this, but isn’t this kind of the way everybody here feels about the right wing?

    Like… Aren’t they also kind of stupid, kind of weak, and kind of incredibly dangerous?

      The “leaders” may be stupid and incompetent, but not weak.

      The ones with real power are at least somewhat intelligent, which is why they prefer to stay in the background and let the figureheads take the hatred and threats.

      Project 2025 was not written by Trump or Musk, yet it is being implemented. It would be reasonable to believe that the people who wrote it are also the people with the real power, and they are not weak or incompetent.
