Ecologia Digital"In this emerging <a href="https://mato.social/tags/AIera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AIera</a>, the very ideas of community and human connection are poised for redefinition.<a href="https://mato.social/tags/Smaller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Smaller</a>, purpose-driven <a href="https://mato.social/tags/communities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#communities</a> are the future. The desire for smaller, more intimate communities is undeniable. People are abandoning massive platforms in favor of tight-knit groups where trust and shared values flourish and content is at the core. The future of community building is in going back to the <a href="https://mato.social/tags/basics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#basics</a>."<a href="https://www.theverge.com/press-room/617654/internet-community-future-research" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.theverge.com/press-room/617654/internet-community-future-research</a>

Chuck DarwinProject 2025, the sweeping right-wing blueprint for a new kind of U.S. presidency, would ♦️sabotage science-based policies♦️ that address climate change, the environment, abortion, health care access, technology and education. It would impose <a href="https://c.im/tags/religious" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#religious</a> and <a href="https://c.im/tags/conservative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#conservative</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ideology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ideology</a> on the federal civil service to such an extent that Republican presidential candidate Donald <a href="https://c.im/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> has, dubiously, tried to distance himself from the plan. But in 2022 Trump said the Heritage Foundation —the think tank that authored Project 2025 —would “lay the groundwork and detail plans for exactly what our movement will do.” The project’s main document, a lengthy policy agenda, was published the following year. Although Trump is not among its 34 authors, more than half are appointees and staff from his time as president; the words “Trump” and “Trump Administration” appear 300 times in its pages. At least 140 former Trump officials are involved in Project 2025, according to a CNN tally. It’s reasonable to expect that a second Trump presidency would follow many of the project’s recommendations.Project 2025 presents a long-standing conservative vision of a <a href="https://c.im/tags/smaller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#smaller</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/government" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#government</a> and describes specific, detailed steps to achieve this goal. It would shrink some federal departments and agencies while <a href="https://c.im/tags/eliminating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eliminating</a> others—<a href="https://c.im/tags/dividing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dividing</a> the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention into two weaker entities, for instance, and <a href="https://c.im/tags/abolishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#abolishing</a> the Department of Education (ED) entirely.What is even more unusual, and also mapped out in detail, is a plan to exert more <a href="https://c.im/tags/presidential" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#presidential</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/control" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#control</a> over traditionally nonpartisan governmental workers —those Trump might describe as members of the “deep state,” or regulatory bureaucracy. For example, Project 2025 claims that the the "National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration" and other scientific institutions are “vulnerable to obstructionism” unless appointees at these agencies are “wholly in sync” with presidential policy. To that end, it would <a href="https://c.im/tags/reclassify" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#reclassify</a> tens of thousands of civil service jobs as political positions that answer to the president.🔥“The independence of science is being attacked across the board in this document,” says Rachel Cleetus, policy director of the Climate and Energy program at the nonpartisan Union of Concerned Scientists. “The importance of this science is that’s how we can ensure people’s health and the environment are being safeguarded.” (Cleetus notes that her comments address the policy agenda’s contents, not the upcoming presidential election.)Career scientists who are now employed by the federal government are 💥 “terrified and polishing up their résumés,” says Jacqueline Simon, policy director of the "American Federation of Government Employees," or <a href="https://c.im/tags/AFGE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AFGE</a>, a union that represents workers at the National Institutes of Health, the Environmental Protection Agency, the CDC and other agencies. If Project 2025 becomes reality, she says, ❌“the very idea of scientific integrity will be flushed down the toilet.” The Heritage Foundation did not respond to Scientific American’s request for comment.<a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/project-2025-plan-for-trump-presidency-has-far-reaching-threats-to-science/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/project-2025-plan-for-trump-presidency-has-far-reaching-threats-to-science/</a>
