Liberals aren't opposed to Project 2025.
Have you heard a liberal plan for what they will do to prevent it once they have power? No of course you haven't. Simply having liberals in charge is all they care about, they have no intent to create policy to prevent or reduce its potential later.
Project 2030 will happen if Project 2025 does not, because liberals are not actually opposed to it, they are simply using it as a tool to get votes.
The democrats and the republicans are on the same team. They are tag teaming the working class into this outcome so that the working class does not pursue an option different to either of them. They are content with it happening either in 1 year or in 6 years. They don't mind either of these outcomes, as long as you and everyone else isn't fighting for a real opposition.
Not only that, but the "ratchet" analogy people use is dead wrong, and it's dangerous that people keep using it. Biden has implemented a bunch of things Trump couldn't because courts, Democrats and their fans, and movements strenuously opposed him. The ratchet hasn't just "stopped" with Biden. It's advanced on slightly different fronts than liberals and the media want to pay attention to. The Democrats don't need to keep it from rolling back to the "left" because there's never any threat of it halting its "rightward" progress.
