Kinda confirms to me that the current admin’s strategy is to destroy as much as possible and only address the squeaky wheels on a case-by-case basis.
The small handful of things that we fight back against and win won’t outweigh the sheer amount of damage they do to things we have less awareness of. A single win, no matter how large or trivial, will sate the general public for a time and give them the calmness the admin needs to keep moving forward.
Pretty sure this is a military strategy and probably has a name. Inundate your enemy with so many events they spread themselves too thin to address everything coming at them.
It’s mostly just morons hacking and slashing with zero understanding. They literally just search for “climate”, “trans”, etc. to cut funding and remove access without checking anything, they just assume they’re correct.
I think “blitzkrieg” matches somewhat: don’t stop to engage every stronghold, just drive around them, isolate them, and cut off their support networks.
Lol yeah it roughly means „center of gravity battle“ loosely translating „Schwerpunkt“ - „center of gravity“ & „schlacht“ - „Battle“.
While Blitzkrieg consists of „blitz“ - „lightning“ and „Krieg“ - „war“
They’re applying the techbro startup “move fast and break thing” motto, which can be a good strategy while you’re small to disrupt the established players.
Not souch when you’re a behemoth like the goverment that can’t adjust its trajectory on a whim when facing an imminent collision, and the general public ends up with the short stick while the oligarchs picks up the pieces of a self-sabotaging system.
In debates it is sometimes referred to as gish gallop. Throw a huge number of things out there without regard for the likelihood of success with each of them to overwhelm the opponent.

i believe its called “Firehose of falsehood”, and yes its a russian method.

And then when theyr’e called out they just lie and double down. Case in point, they refuse to admit they confused “transgenic” with “transgender” to the point where they made a post on the white house website: https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/03/yes-biden-spent-millions-on-transgender-animal-experiments/ (For reference, it was alzheimers research)
The real scary part is that there are people who have an inkling of what they’re doing, and you’re not hearing much about the things they’re changing.
Wait until these farmers hear about NOAA. It’s pretty hard to grow things without a forecast you can trust.

Yeah it got rebranded “shock and awe” by the previous set of fascists that were running the government.
With all the Nazis in government going back to blitzkrieg is probably more accurate.
Which is ironic as Blitzkrieg itself is a rebrand of Schwerpunktschlacht IIRC
The German language’s ability to communicate meaning simply through word length is impressive.
Brizlet is probably fine, but Viornzirgizuetunkuszt probably means resource extraction with nuclear bombs or something.

Move fast and break people
Time to watch Glass Onion again.

I think it’s called “Fire and motion”
Yea, that seems to track
