If you're surprised, you weren’t paying attention.
If you're still in denial, you’re playing catch-up in a rigged game.

What’s wild is:
This isn’t some fringe conspiracy theory.
Heritage Foundation, a major political force, put it all out in the open.
📘 It’s a 900+ page blueprint.
📢 And yet, many are pretending this is coming out of nowhere?

It’s not chaos.
It’s calculated.

This is why we need to stop being reactive.
We don’t need to “wait and see.”
We need to read what’s been written,
connect the dots,
and organize accordingly.

It’s all right there — in black and white.
🔹 A roadmap for economic nationalism
🔹 An explicit plan to undermine global trade alliances
🔹 A framework to centralize power under the guise of “America First”

The tariffs?
They’re not a mistake.
They’re Step 3 in a long, carefully documented strategy.

I’m genuinely baffled. 🧵
How are media and political figures — especially Democrats, but even some Republicans — surprised by the announcement of global tariffs?

They say they "don’t understand why this is happening."
They “hope it’s just temporary.”

Seriously?

Did no one read the damn Project 2025 playbook?

8/ Conclusion:
“Am I not allowed to say that anymore?” is not a harmless phrase.
It’s a sign of a psychological reflex
that right-wing movements intentionally trigger
to fuel resistance against empathy and solidarity.

📌 If we understand reactance, we can have better conversations –
and disarm right-wing populism.

7/ Instead of “You have to,” try:
🟢 “How would you feel if…?”
🟢 “Can I show you why this matters to me?”
🟢 “What would help you feel safe – and others too?”

💡 Reactance can’t be defeated – but it can be bypassed.

6/ What to do?
We need to understand:
👉 People who feel their freedom is under threat won’t respond to facts.
❌ Moral superiority often increases resistance.

✅ That’s why communication must be smart:

No commands – but invitations

No blame – but dialogue

5/ The insidious part:
Even calls for respect, empathy, or inclusion are framed as attacks on “personal freedom.”

💡 Right-wing rhetoric paints itself as “rebellion,”
even though it’s often authoritarian and exclusionary in substance.

4/ Right-wing populists know this.
They deliberately activate reactance:

“The elites want to control your thoughts!”

“You’re not allowed to say anything anymore!”

“We speak for the common sense of the people!”

➡️ This creates emotional solidarity – against supposed censorship.

3/ Example:
If someone says to you:
👉 “You have to use gender-inclusive language!”
…the reaction is often not:
“Interesting, tell me more,”
but:
“Now I definitely won’t!”

💥 The content becomes secondary – resistance takes over.

2/ What is reactance?
📌 Reactance is a psychological reflex:
When people feel controlled or patronized, they respond with resistance.

➡️ They don’t reject something because of its content,
but because they feel pushed to agree with it.

🧵 Reactance: Why the phrase “Am I not allowed to say that anymore?” is so powerful – and so dangerous
1/ Everyone knows it:
👉 “Am I not allowed to say that anymore?”
A phrase that sounds harmless – but taps into a psychological mechanism that right-wing movements deliberately exploit: reactance.

5. What’s Next?

If data was stolen, we might see leaks or news articles exposing what was found.

The website owners will likely increase security to prevent further attacks.

Authorities (FBI, cybersecurity teams) may start investigating.

4. Why Does It Matter?

If real, this could mean sensitive Trump-related information gets leaked.

Journalists, politicians, or donors who contacted the website could have their emails, messages, or identities exposed.

Hackers claim this is part of

3. What Did They Find?

The website reacted differently when they tested their attack, meaning it was likely vulnerable.

They may have extracted information before the website's security kicked in.

2. How Did They Do It?

Websites store their data in databases (like a digital filing cabinet).

If a website isn't properly secured, hackers can "ask" the database tricky questions that force it to spill secrets.

In this case, they used special codes to manipulate how the website handles requests.

Simple Summary for Non-Techies:

1. What Happened?

They claim they hacked Trump's website (45office.com).

They used a technique called SQL Injection to trick the website into revealing hidden data.

The attack focused on the press inquiry and contact forms, meaning they might have accessed private messages, journalist contacts, or even financial records.

So apparently a website with sensitive data about Trump's actions has been breached by .

I have no way to verify at this point. If so, the obtained data will be revealed soon-ish I guess.

Also it is to be seen if this was an isolated incident or a start of something bigger.

🔹 4. Why they want us to feel powerless

Helplessness is their greatest weapon.
Because if you believe you can’t make a difference, you won’t even try.

But when we take action, the game changes.
