What are we really talking about? 🕵️
She's the American journalist, Ari Drennen who first alerted on his Twitter account beginning of September 2023. This hot topic got a lot of attention across the Atlantic.
In summary, it is a plan proposed by this group of American volunteers, through a document called”2025 - Mandate for Leadership“who, if adopted, could seriously compromise the rights of trans people by defining them as “pornographic.”
The ultimate objective is therefore to completely Erase transgender people from the media, social networks and other content that is widely viewed by the American population.
Project details 🧐
This project was created by the Heritage Foundation, a well-established conservative organization. The idea? Integrate ultra-conservative values within the Republican Party. Among the proposals, we find the removal of protections against discrimination for LGBTQ+ people. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
The dangers of the “2025 Project” ⚠️
Of course, we're not just talking about an attack on the trans community, but an attempt to define their very existence as “pornography”. This creates an obvious identity problem for these people and above all, this project is the door open to many excesses on people from the LGBTQI+ community.
The interesting thing about reading this kind of document is that its layout and the people mentioned in it make it very formal. This means that we could give credence to this kind of point of view or even think that it is an official position.
As you can imagine, this lunar project of American conservative extremists also targets immigrants' rights and abortion rights. Paul Dans, director of the project and a former member of the Trump government, sees this manual as a call to action for conservatives.
In conclusion 🌷
This project raises numerous questions and concerns, not only for the LGBTQ+ community, but also for anyone who believes in equality and human rights. It is essential to continue to be informed and to remain united in the face of such manoeuvres aimed at rolling back human rights.
