In the first one, you have Marta Cabrera; and I’ve seen everyone boil down the moral of her story to just “kill ‘em with kindness”, but it’s so much more complex than that. It’s not just being kind, it’s aggressive kindness. It’s being kind when everyone else doesn’t want you too. It’s a vengeful kindness; “oh, you want me to be a douchebag and be mean and greedy just like you all would? Fuck you, I’m going to have a heart instead.” I mean, Blanc even outright says this when he confirms that one Hugh Ransom Drysdale was counting on Marta to let Fran die in order for her framing to work, but she doesn’t. She (in spirit) laughs in his face as she attempts to save her life anyway. That’s what Marta’s story is all about; being kind even when the world doesn’t want you to.

And Helen Brand, a lot of people also just simmer her story down to “fuck Elon Musk, go break shit” but again, it’s so much more complicated than that. The real moral of Helen’s story is the contrast of Revenge and Justice. The goody-two-shoes folk of the world would say that Justice for your crimes is better than senseless revenge, and coming from a hyper-religious home I’ve been hit over the head since childhood that vengeance is not the answer. But that’s not true. Calculated vengeance against a “shitheaded” target is justified, and in some cases, commendable. That’s what Helen’s story is about; having the courage to take revenge in a perfectly executed manner, whether she premeditated it or not, and end the injustices against her not by seeking justice, but by seeking perfect revenge. It’s Disruption™️ as dictated by Miles Bron.

For the uninformed, Project 2025 is a plan drafted by a conservative alt-right think tank that would turn America into an autocratic dystopia in the event that Trump wins the 2024 election. The plan would begin execution IMMEDIATELY upon Trump's innaguration, and includes actions such as the following:

Trump would recieve near-unlimited powers as president and would essentially become a fascist dictator.

Using this power, he would invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807 to mobilize military forces and hunt down anyone he deems to be his enemies (the plan specifically states "deep state politicians", but who he regards as his enemies could expand to generally anyone who opposes him).

Project 2025 pretty much spells the end for LGBTQIA+ rights, with the removal of protections against discrimination and healthcare as the beginning of the plan, but would eventually include the criminalization of anyone who "appears" gender-nonconforming or doesn't fit a heterosexual stereotype. Transgender individuals would be forced to detransition, or at the very least, present themselves as their gender assigned at birth, and any non-heterosexual couples would have their marriages annulled (at the very best), or may even be imprisoned. There's so much more that would occur along the lines of destroying LGBTQIA+ rights, but these are some major points I wanted to highlight.

On the topic of diversity rights, the document has evidence that Trump could begin deporting non-white individuals (mostly Latinx people, but anyone is fair game) and as a whole, rights for any non-white individuals would go by the wayside.

Furthermore, women's rights would also be abolished, with discrimination against women in the workplace returning and reproductive rights being thrown out. Abortion would become criminalized under this new policy, and women would lose automony over their bodies and decisions.

Most of the current administrative branch would be demolished, with current departments like the Department of Education, Department of Justice, and FBI being shut down, and others having their power either significantly limited or replaced with Trump's own conservative infiltrators.

Speaking of which, while this project doesn't technically go into effect until Trump's potential election, the steps are already being made. Alt-right individuals and supporters can sign up on Project 2025's Website to officially join certain jobs and become apart of the project's officially sanctioned militia that could execute Trump's bidding.

If all of this seems very scary, it should be. If Trump gets elected, we would see the end of American democracy and freedom, and the country would transform into a fascist dystopia. If you think this only affects Americans, think again! Other alt-right parties in other countries can and will take example from Trump's power and push for the abolishment of freedom in other countries as well.

So. What can you do?

I hope this doesn't need to be said, but if it does, then VOTE. If you were planning to not vote, then by taking that inaction you are effectively making an action that could spell the destruction of our nation. If you are voting age, you MUST cast your vote against Trump to ensure that Project 2025 will not go into effect.

You can also spread the word to friends, whether that be in person or online. Reblog this post, or make your own posts. Make sure that this information is circulated in your online circles and encourage others to share more information wherever you can. Talk about it on all of your social media profiles and get all of your mutuals talking about it as well. Unfortunately, there's a huge subset of the internet that just isn't aware about Project 2025, but if we get the word out and encourage as many people as we can to take action against this manifesto, then we may be able to save our nation. Again, even if you're not American, this policy could impact you in the future, and you can share information for your own online audience and inform your American followers about the issue. It's very important that we get as many people talking about this as possible.

I hope this post motivates you to take action and begin sharing information about Project 2025, and if you would like more resources I've linked articles and resources for you below.

Visible logo shirts

And to me, the inclusion of these controversial pieces is what makes up the punk academia aesthetic, which has been on my mind lately (since I’m preparing to go off to a gorgeous dark academia college). I definitely fit into the punk academia style more, so allow me to list some of my favorite outfits:

A pair of vans, black skinny jeans, a solid color t-shirt and an open cardigan

Puma sneakers with a mismatched set of khaki chinos, an aqua blue t-shirt, and a khaki blazer taken from a formal suit set

Combat boots with dark-wash jeans, a leather belt, a black spandex muscle shirt coupled with an Evermore-style red and brown plaid flannel coat
