Politics is one of the only practical disciplines where none of the main concepts have clear, coherent definitions.
We define ourselves with terms like "left” and "right" and we believe in things like "democracy," “markets,” "capitalism" and "socialism" even though we don’t really know what any of these words actually mean.
This series aims to make sense out of the political muddle that we've inherited from media, academia, and from decades of cold war propaganda, so that we can figure what it is that we want when it comes to politics, and how we can achieve it. -

Het is al donker buiten, begin oktober 2022, als strandvonder Marco wordt opgeroepen naar 'zijn' Egmond aan Zee. Er is een rubberboot aangespoeld. Daarin vindt hij een zwemvest, kleding, rugtassen, speelgoed en foto's. Van wie zijn deze spullen? Wie zaten er aan boord van dit groene bootje? Waar waren deze mensen onderweg naar toe en waar zijn ze nu? NH-journalist Maaike Polder gaat op zoek.

Project 2025: The Ominous Specter Ladies and gentlemen, we find ourselves standing at the precipice of a dark and foreboding future, one in which the very foundations of our democracy are under siege. The threat we face is not an external one, but rather a cancer that has metastasized within the body politic itself. I speak, of course, of the insidious manifesto known as Project 2025 – a blueprint for authoritarian rule that masquerades as a conservative vision for the United States. As we delve into the depths of this pernicious document, crafted in the shadowy halls of the Heritage Foundation, it becomes abundantly clear that we are witnessing nothing less than a frontal assault on the principles that have long sustained our republic. Project 2025 is not merely a misguided set of policy proposals; it is a calculated attempt to dismantle the very fabric of our democratic institutions, to concentrate power in the hands of a few, and to impose a rigid ideological orthodoxy on a nation that has always prided itself on its diversity and its commitment to individual liberty. At its core, Project 2025 seeks to reshape the federal government in the image of a conservative dystopia. Its proponents, consumed by an insatiable hunger for power and an unwavering commitment to their ideological agenda, have meticulously crafted a roadmap for the systematic erosion of checks and balances, the suppression of dissent, and the consolidation of executive authority. It is a vision that should send a shiver down the spine of every freedom-loving American, for it represents nothing less than a repudiation of the very principles upon which this nation was founded. The architects of Project 2025 argue, with a level of audacity that borders on the delusional, that the federal bureaucracy is overrun with unaccountable liberals who impede their agenda. Their solution? A purge of Stalinist proportions, reclassifying tens of thousands of civil servants as political appointees, effectively transforming the machinery of government into an apparatus of ideological conformity. The implications of this proposal alone are staggering – the eradication of expertise, the subversion of meritocracy, and the creation of a loyalty-based system that would make even the most fervent authoritarian blush. But the assault on democratic institutions does not end there. Project 2025's disdain for the separation of powers is as blatant as it is dangerous. Its vision of a "unitary executive theory" is nothing short of a repudiation of the very principles enshrined in our Constitution. By seeking to exert control over independent agencies like the Department of Justice and the FBI, the project's architects aim to transform these bastions of impartiality into instruments of partisan enforcement. It is a move that would make Richard Nixon's transgressions seem like mere child's play, a power grab of such magnitude that it threatens to unravel the very fabric of our democracy. And yet, even as we recoil in horror at the prospect of such an overreach, we must also confront the deeper implications of Project 2025's vision for American society. For the social policies outlined in this document are equally troubling, reflecting a worldview that is as narrow-minded as it is oppressive. The imposition of conservative Christian values, the marginalization of LGBTQ+ individuals, and the draconian stance against abortion rights are all hallmarks of a regime that seeks to impose its moral strictures on an entire nation, regardless of the diversity of beliefs and values that have always been the hallmark of the American experience. Indeed, the notion that America needs to be "saved" from itself, and that only a radical overhaul of its institutions and values can achieve this salvation, is perhaps the most arrogant and dangerous conceit of all. It reflects a view of the world that is fundamentally at odds with the pluralism and the respect for individual liberty that have always been the bedrock of our democracy. And yet, this is precisely the vision that animates the architects of Project 2025 – a vision that is as antithetical to the American spirit as it is to the very notion of a free and open society. But perhaps the most insidious aspect of Project 2025 is the way in which it cloaks its authoritarian agenda in the language of reform and efficiency. Its proponents speak of restoring traditional American values, as if the very notion of tradition were not itself a malleable construct, subject to the whims of those in power. They invoke the specter of an overreaching federal government, conveniently ignoring the fact that their own vision of executive power is far more expansive and unconstrained than anything that has come before. It is a rhetorical sleight of hand that would be laughable if its consequences were not so dire. For what Project 2025 ultimately represents is a rejection of the very principles that have made America a beacon of freedom and democracy in the world. It is a repudiation of the idea that power should be dispersed rather than concentrated, that dissent should be protected rather than suppressed, and that the rule of law should be upheld rather than subverted. To fully grasp the dangers of Project 2025, one need only look to the historical precedents that have paved the way for the rise of authoritarianism. The erosion of democratic norms in the Weimar Republic, the centralization of power under Viktor Orbán in Hungary, and the stifling of free speech under Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in Turkey – these are all cautionary tales that underscore the fragility of democracy in the face of those who would seek to undermine it.
Indeed, the parallels between the tactics employed by these authoritarian regimes and the strategies outlined in Project 2025 are striking. The demonization of political opponents, the co-optation of the media, the erosion of institutional checks and balances – these are all hallmarks of a playbook that has been used time and again to consolidate power in the hands of a few. And yet, even as we acknowledge the magnitude of the threat before us, we must not succumb to despair. For the fight against the forces of authoritarianism is one that has been waged throughout history, and it is a fight that has always been won by those who refuse to surrender their principles in the face of adversity. It is a fight that will require the active engagement of every citizen who values the sanctity of our democratic institutions. It will require a sustained effort to raise public awareness, to mobilize opposition, and to hold those in power accountable for their actions. It will require a commitment to the principles of free speech, free press, and the rule of law, even in the face of those who would seek to undermine them. But perhaps most importantly, it will require a willingness to confront the uncomfortable truths about our own society – the inequalities, the injustices, and the divisions that have long simmered beneath the surface. For it is only by addressing these underlying issues that we can hope to build a more perfect union, one that is truly worthy of the ideals upon which it was founded. And so, my fellow citizens, let us not be lulled into complacency by the siren song of those who would promise us a return to some mythical past. Let us not be seduced by the false promises of those who would trade our freedoms for the illusion of security. Let us instead stand firm in our commitment to the principles that have made this nation great – the principles of liberty, equality, and justice for all. For in the end, the fight against Project 2025 is not simply a battle for the soul of our nation – it is a battle for the very future of democracy itself. It is a battle that will require all of us to summon the courage and the conviction to stand up for what we know to be right, even in the face of those who would seek to silence us. Let us draw strength from the examples of those who have gone before us – the patriots and the martyrs who have sacrificed everything in the name of freedom. Let us remember that the arc of history bends towards justice, but only if we have the courage to bend it ourselves. For as Thomas Jefferson once said, 'When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.' And as we stand here today, on the brink of an abyss that threatens to consume us all, let us be clear about where our loyalties lie.
They lie not with those who seek to impose their will upon us through force and coercion, but with those who believe in the power of reason, of dialogue, and of democracy itself. They lie not with those who would trade our freedoms for the false promise of security, but with those who understand that our security lies in our freedoms themselves. And so, my friends, let us go forth from this place, armed with the knowledge that our cause is just, and our resolve unshakable. Let us go forth with the conviction that, no matter how dark the road ahead may seem, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel – a light that shines bright with the promise of a better tomorrow. For if we do not fight for that tomorrow, then who will? If we do not stand up for the principles that define us as a nation, then what will become of us? These are the questions that we must ask ourselves, as we confront the spectre of Project 2025 and all that it represents. And let us never forget, even in our darkest moments, that the power to shape our destiny lies not in the hands of those who would seek to control us, but in our own hands – the hands of a free people, united in the pursuit of justice, of equality, and of the democratic ideal.
