    After briefly speaking to one of my younger (white, male, most likely straight, but turns out he’s prob an “enlightened centrist”) co-workers earlier today, it seems like there are people who just don’t believe it can happen.

    He told me that “both sides have their propaganda” when I asked if he’s read Project 2025. I wanted to scream.

    The conversation literally ended with me telling him that this has happened before. He said, yeah, but not here. I was like, we’re not special. Such a disappointing conversation. Ruined my day/night. Literally used the “it will never happen here” line.

    This is a man with a STEM degree. He’s not stupid.

    I think there are a lot of people who are in for a shock when the shit really starts hitting the fan.
