Alabama Republicans, under orders of the U.S. Supreme Court to redraw congressional districts to give minority voters a greater voice in elections, rejected calls Monday to craft a second majority-Black district and proposed a map testing the judges’ directive.
If this doesn’t tell you republicans are racist, I don’t know what will.
I’m not even sure it’s that… “principled”? For lack of a better word. I don’t know what the piece of shit version of that word is. But I think this is just them clutching at power any way they can. Being racist is either a non-issue or the asshole cherry on their asshole sundae.
This tracks. I have some republicans in the family, and they aren’t super racist against conservative voting non-whites. Democrat is a much worse word to them than Black or Mexican.
So they’re not super racist. Just kind of racist. And only kind of racist to minorities who vote against their own self interests to try and I guess win over said ‘only kind of racist’ family members.
I think you’re in denial about your racist family members and I suspect when you’re not around they’re more than happy to discuss their racist viewpoints amongst each other. Just a guess tho.
The Supreme Court has no enforcement arm. That’s why the court loosing it’s credibility is kind of a big deal for Roberts.
As racist as this obviously is, it’s good to see a red state be the test case for ignoring the court. It might give blue states more energy to ignore the next 40 years of authoritarian and climate denial rulings.
Here is the thing though my man the blue states would rather respect the rule of the land to try and set an example for the people voting for the red states.
Imo it’s kinda like how the vast majority of the time the usa treats pow’s pretty well even when we know the enemy won’t. We don’t want to become like them so we have to hold ourselves above them.
Also you took the user name I wanted originally. So I hope you get good use out of it lol.
Alabama embracing their stereotype
Ribbit
The Republican party abandoned decorum a long time ago.
Do they see themselves as cartoon villains twirling their mustaches? Because I do.
