Small-Scale Question Sunday for September 22, 2024

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

Interesting tidbit from the new NBC News poll: Project 2025 has a net favorability rating of negative 53 points. Only 4 percent of registered voters have a positive opinion of it.

I realize that basically nobody has actually read the 922 page policy document, but how does a pretty mainstream conservative policy agenda end up with lizardman numbers?

It's the inverted equivalent of Woke. Much as Woke is an amorphous exonym that contains everything you don't like about liberals, Project 2025 is an amorphous conspiracy that contains everything you don't like about conservatives. Nobody is defending Project 2025, much as nobody defends Woke.

If you hear about it from liberals it's bad. If you hear about it from Trump he says he knows nothing about it, which given his record on prior endorsements from Bad Hombres would tell you as a Trump Voter it must be double plus bad. Seriously, every other flier I get from Trump is about how he disavows project 2025!
