The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 is being called a laughable "authoritarian fantasy...

Title suck, it's not happening right now but rather what Republicans are gearing up for.
The far-right wish list is part of the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, laying out policy positions for the next Republican president, and led by a cadre of former Trump administration officials.
Right wing thinkers are circulating a chilling 920 page blueprint for the next President to declare the mere existence of trans people pornographic. These are not cranks, this is the Republican policy establishment. pic.twitter.com/ZU1jqCKIgC — Ari Drennen (@AriDrennen) September 7, 2023The Heritage Foundation is a terrorist organization.
The title didn't day it is happening right now. It said that is what is on their "vision board".
'"vision board" outlaws' is pretty unambiguously saying the board is doing the outlawing.
They didn't say "wants to outlaw" or "would outlaw"Maybe you just don't know what a vision board is?
You're right, I'm a member of the general public who has never heard the term before.
So I have- the general understanding that a "board" is usually a group of individuals with some sort of authority.
- An unknown adjectival noun "vision". And
- the present tense verb "outlaws"
The headline could have replaced "vision board" with the word "proposals" used in the first sentence of the article and been more clear. But I feel like the choice may have been a deliberate one to drive clicks. (outlaws -> propose it should be outlawed)
If it's supposed to be this sort of hokey motivational poster, is this really a common term now? Maybe I am too old.
Edit: Very interesting. This term has a definite trend in January (New Year's resolutions?) but the trend only seems to have kicked off around 2011. https://i.imgur.com/SQDyfSS.png
Old confirmed! There are dozens of us!
Or you don't watch it's always sunny.
I made some vision boards back in grade school but I don't remember them having too much political power
