Watcher of films and TV. Reader of books. Player of games. Drinker of teas. Spent nearly 20 years in America but bailed after 2024. Rather worried about those I left behind and spend far too much of my free time staring at the car crash that is the US gov.

Bizarre take on nearly every quality of life metric imaginable. Also a bizarre take, given the difference in religiosity.
Religion in Australia statistics from the 2021 census, showing the top three groups are: 43.9% Christian, 38.9% nonreligious, and 3.2% Muslim. Religion in the US statistics from 2023-2024 Pew Research study, showing the top three groups are: 62% Christian, 29% unaffiliated/nonreligious, and 7% other religious groups.

Have they?
A screenshot of the progress meter from the Project2025.observer website, which shows that 50% of Project 2025's goals have already been achieved to some substantial degree. A screenshot of a pie chart from the Project2025.observer website, which shows that 39% of Project 2025's goals have already been completely achieved, while 21% are in progress. A final 40% have not been implemented yet.

Many who didn't vote also supported it, so it's wishful thinking to believe the majority is sane or compassionate at this point. www.pewresearch.org/politics/202...
Pew Research polling found that if all nonvoters had voted in 2024, Trump had an advantage among them and the results likely would have been around 45% for Harris, 48% for Trump. This was in contrast to 2020, where if all nonvoters had voted, Biden still would have had a clear lead (49% to Trump's 43%).

Lee Cronin's work history on IMDB suggests this will be rubbish, indeed.
Lee Cronin's IMDB "resume", showing he's worked on nothing of substance, and what he has done is rated poorly. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2091846/

Please share real info, not pixelated memes.

"Taliban’s Abdul Ghani Baradar is undisputed victor of a 20-year war" www.theguardian.com/world/2021/a...
Excerpt from Guardian article: The Obama administration, however, was more fearful of his military expertise than it was hopeful about his supposedly moderate leanings. The CIA tracked him down to Karachi in 2010 and in February of that year persuaded ISI to arrest him. “The capture of Baradar was predominantly instigated because of his role in the war rather than because of the likelihood that he was going to suddenly make peace,” a former official said. “The fact is, the Pakistanis held on to him all those years in large part because the United States asked them to.” In 2018, however, Washington’s attitude changed and Donald Trump’s Afghan envoy, Zalmay Khalilzad, asked the Pakistanis to release Baradar so he could lead negotiations in Qatar, based on the belief that he would settle for a power-sharing arrangement. “I had never seen any real substantiation of that point, but it just took on a kind of mythic idea,” the former official said. Baradar signed the Doha agreement with the US in February 2020, in what the Trump administration hailed as a breakthrough towards peace but which now appears a mere staging post towards total Taliban victory.

A picture of Trump looking like a bloody idiot with an overlay of the MST3K silhouettes and the joke "They're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats, they're eating ultimate endless shrimp at Red Lobster, bankrupting a 60-year-old staple of American casual dining."
