the project 2025 stuff has felt far away until now but calling it the department of government efficiency is actually terrifying, it sounds like something you'd hear under nazi germany

edit: I looked into it more and it seems to just be about the government spending/budget but it's annoyingly unspecific, makes me wonder what they're gonna cut first

i think it sounds (unironically) like something from 1984, e.g. the "ministry of truth" (censorship department) or the "ministry of peace" (war department)

Yep, with the re-election on trump, USA just took a big leap towards the dystopia of 1984

i'm trying to find what they (project 2025) are intending to rename health and human services. don't find it at the moment but it's definitely some orwellian bullshit. "ministry of life" or something.

edit - department of life
