If you think it’s news that Meta’s new public policy director, Dustin Carmack, is a Project 2025 co-author,
Consider dropping a tip to your preferred news outlet. I’ve already sent an email to The Verge’s tipline and I implore you to do the same.

I made this with Xitter in mind but I think the idea carries over nicely.
Since project 2025 violates their community guidelines he is in breach of his employment agreement and should be fired, right Meta?
As someone who worked there, this is a crock. Low level employees would be fired for this. The longer he stays at Meta the more it confirms their true intentions.
Everyone has access to the community guidelines which may appear to be very even keeled and appropriate. As someone that’s been on the inside, if you look at their enforcement guidelines, it’s a different story entirely. The amount of tolerance they have for hate speech is remarkable.
News: some shit I’ve avoided since day 1 is doing horrible things again
Me:
Turns out things happening in the world affect everybody, and like it or not, your personal habits don’t represent those of 3 billion other people.
Awww maaaaan
Hindsight bias is strong.
Username checks out.
Project 2025, the Real Life conspiracy to trump all fake bullshit conspiracies.
Tin hats, this is your moment. What did you prep for if not this?
It’s aluminum foil hats, dammit! Tin won’t stop CIA brainwaves.
Facebook far right feed is there to remind me to close the tab after acrolling half page
Something something fedipact!
This will be the face of Threads’ EEE policy. Watch it over the next five years.
On the scale of 1 to 10, how worried should I be?
Yes
What dumbass still uses Facebook products?
Literally billions of people.
I use FB marketplace to buy and sell locally.
Everyone has WhatsApp in Europe sadly.
Sadly I still have a WhatsApp account. There’s people too stubornt to make the change… And I need to know if there’s homework…
If you travel internationally, especially Central and South America, EVERYONE uses Whatsapp. 1st time in Panama I was stunned, I didn’t even have an account then. ( Sigh ) I do now.
I’m from Mexico, that’s why everyone I know used WhatsApp. I’ve been to Europe too, the too use WhatsApp. Still id like people could give a chance to other services like Telegram for day to day use and not only for when WhatsApp is down.
I deleted my account last year, but had to make a new one when my banks wouldn’t communicate with me without it…
Yep, I deal with Brazilians and WhatsApp is what they expect to use
Lots of people without your digital literacy and/or political awareness. Labeling them as dumbasses isn’t making any of them switch to better alternatives.
I mean, I agree with you, but also this appears to be a xitter post, you know, also run by a contemptible right wing pos.
Like, I am a person that hasn’t used a major US bank since 08, I use local credit unions. I don’t use facebook and deleted it after they started getting outted for shady shit a decade + ago.
I don’t use windows, or reddit, or anything else it is possible for me to avoid for similar reasons.
Hell I used to only shop for groceries at the only nearby co op until a series of extraordinary events forced me to move somewhere that did not have any.
But we live in a world full of tiktoks complaining about how bad tiktok is, where people will tell you how much capitalism sucks and how much they are against it as they are, at the very same moment ordering fast fashion and a knock off stanley cup from TEMU.
I don’t use shitter anymore either.
Hmmm I wonder what effects this will have on Mastodon, as Threads has recently started to bridge over.

The source is in the tweet, it’s the Project 2025 mandate. His name isn’t hidden on it or anything.
For his authorship or his new position?
Not the same person, but I for one would like reliable references I can lean on for both in the event this does blow up
He’s credited as the author of Chapter 7 (Intelligence) on their website. https://www.project2025.org/policy/
The information regarding his position is from linkedIn.
He was Chief of Staff for the DNI administrator for a couple years, according to LinkedIn.
hilarious that he’s warning about some asshole joining a social media company…while on twitter
