A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I'm sure it'll be worse after Trump. He's an idiot. Imagine someone with the same agenda, but actually smart and subtle.
He might be an idiot, but he's a useful idiot. I get the feeling there are smart people at play, just using trump as a puppet more or less.
Edit: I guess my point being, yeah it can always get worse, but i feel like we're already pretty far along in terms of how bad politicians can be. The way it gets worse after this i think is them gaining more and more control over the government.
Yeah I mean project 2025 is not his thing, it's the heritage foundation's thing they've been scheming for years.
