How was Errol Musk aware of the book (in 1970 something) if it was unpublished until 2006 ? (According to the wiki link below) ?

Were they doing nazi catch ups with Von Braun in the 60s or something ?

Agreed, also the assertion that most are Latin derived seems questionable. I count Portugal, Spain France Belgium (part), Italy, Romania, Luxembourg (French partial) Switzerland (part & not EU) . Ireland (part & saying English is Latin derived is really stretching it)

Non Latin (Germanic / Slavic) is Belgium, Lux (Lux lang), Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Norway (not EU) Finland, Estonia, Latvia Lithuania, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, Austria, Switzerland (part), Croatia, Montenegro, N.Macedonia, Greece, Malta, Cyprus, Ireland (part)

Did I forget anyone ?

That gives 9 Latin derived, 24 not Latin (noting double count of partial and including 2 large technically non EU)

Left out the 3 non EU micro nations of Andorra, Monaco & Lichtenstein but even if included it's 1/3 latin, 2/3rds non Latin by count. Probably the same by population but I can't be arsed to look it up

(Also ignored the UK for obvious reasons)

Move to the bluest city & state you can get a job in. Then hunker down and either save hard or start studying something that will allow you to emigrate (medical&IT security are always on the list), or something that can be done fully remotely. You're a lot safer from a camp in a place where there are 100s of thousands of minorities. Not safe forever but it buys you time.

If you can get a job that can be done remotely you can get out to asia or south america asap.

"Trump will never implement Project 2025, he's just saying that stuff to rile people up"

How's that working out then ?

If pp says they'll cut funding to Cbc believe him.

So you think the crazy monkeys will react less viciously then they did back when they were just sane but nasty ?

Yeah, a bizarre choice but all the tech bros have kissed the ring and kneeled for Agent Krasnov. Reddit is so riddled with bots as well that it's becoming ridiculously dysfunctional anyway, even if Spez hadn't aligned with the fash.

Last time we thought about taking Pine Gap back the CIA installed a new PM...might want to tread carefully there. The US has always taken a dim view of their vassals thinking for themselves

Yes. The Budapest memo and the US strategic backflip has proved non nuclear powers are deeply at risk.

UK alone was 10%.

There are components made by the international partners

I sincerely doubt any other than the UKs aren't easily replaceable by the US and for the UK piece BAE has US sites all of whom I'm sure have at the very least full access to the specs.

Given the restrictions reddit has been bringing in (upvoting luigi on a nintendo related site got one user banned) you may wish to encourage your reddit subscribers to at least get themselves setup here for when the sub gets inevitably banned. Reddit is unequivocally on the side of the GOP & billionaires now.
