Admittedly it sounds like a kind of a far out conspiracy idea but frankly we need to run effective counter propaganda against the MAGA Fascist thugs. And sometimes there are real conspiracies. Musk and X clearly engaged in a propaganda and misinformation campaign during the 2024 election.

Also, i suspect that there are a number of covert Project 2025 people operating behind the scenes in the new MAGA government that is about to come in. This is speculation but there might be some truth to it. I think that these people and their plans will be revealed pretty soon after Trump is sworn in.

As I wrote elsewhere, we need to operate counter propaganda against this incoming MAGA Fascist Regime. These people use lies and disinformation to confuse the ignorant and to gain power. It is a mistake to fight fair against an illegitimate Regime that uses lies and dirty tricks. We need to fight fire with fire.
