Hey cool! Our definitely not corrupt Supreme Court just squeaked in a voting rights decision just in time for the midterms, paving the way for more southern states to redraw their maps with weeks to spare. The timing is uncanny!
Is Virginia discriminating against white males by making it harder to elect republicans?
"North Carolina's 12th District (1990s & 2010s): Widely considered the most notoriously gerrymandered district in American history. In the 1990s, it was a thin, snake-like line that followed Interstate 85, designed to connect black communities. In the 2010s, it was redesigned as a tight, urban "packing" district to concentrate Democratic voters."
Exactly how did this district elect a representative that knew the concerns of minority communities in both Greensboro and Charlotte? Are you implying because of race, their issues are the same and therefore needed to be connected, even though they are over an hour away from each other, have different economic drivers, and entirely different local governments?
So your argument is to gerrymander now because it was done in the early 90's? Why not end gerrymandering altogether?
my argument is that gerrymandering by race does more harm than good and disenfranchises minorities more because they have worse contact with their representatives who don't live where they live and therefore do not have their interests in mind.
Treating all black people the same in that grouping obviously different geographic locations with altogether different issues for the purpose of race parity in representation is actually more racist
Lol, yeah, ok. Hey, here's a fun fact! Did you know that NC elected their FIRST black member of congress in over 100 years in 1990? 19 f'ing 90. Hmmm, I wonder what happened in 1990? Ohhhh, maybe that district they were forced to create that you think black people are better off without?
Trust me man, I'd love to live in a society where we don't have to think about this crap anymore, but pretending like that's all ancient history is just being oblivious. It ain't. And pretending that trying to fix an obvious long-term problem with an imperfect solution is actually racist against white people is f'ing loony.
P.S. The point of my post was that this Supreme Court seems to have a knack for timing their decisions or lack of decisions in a way that suuuuuure looks like partisan bull**it.
You ever notice the real racist are the loudest of all and only call names and point fingers at others?
The leftist are obsessed with race.

#Napoy needs to bump his monthly donation to the SPLC to generate some more opportunities for his race bairong rhetoric.
