Are you talking about Virginia where their constitution requires two legislature votes and an election between changing district maps? A fact everyone knew before attempting a redistricting to eliminate Republicans seats by forcing six districts to run through Fairfax…

Or are you talking about something else?

There’s also all the crime trump and his cronies are trying to distract from that they’re doing by ignoring laws and taking bribes and stuff.

Yeah, but like whatabout…

Wait you’re what abutting me?

What about all the red states who started the gerrymandering?

That’s the real question.

Why are you calling out one but not the other?

Because you’re a partisan hack

> red states who started the gerrymandering

My memory starts more than a year ago.

California, Illinois, and New York, rigged decades earlier than your screen told you to be mad at republicans who in reality are playing catch up on gerrymandering.

But I noticed you’re trying to avoid the actual point.

Virginia illegally pushed a new map against their own state constitution and their Supreme Court shot it down. Cry more about it.

Yes, I’m a partisan hack. Yeah that’s what’s going on here. You read the referendum question they pushed in Virginia and pretend you’re on the correct side of legitimacy.

I am talking about:

- the pardon of anyone involved with Jan 6, both the invasion of the capitol, the fake electors and the truthers that were condemned for lying in court or just plain contempt;

- the promotion of 2020 election deniers to positions of power over the elections in the current administration;

- the promotion of incompetent but loyal people at the head of the DOJ, FBI and DNI, who all refused to answer the question "who won the 2020 election" in a straight manner during hearings;

- the strategy of universal gerrymandering being a capstone of the GOP platform;

- the Supreme Court's recent ruling on VRA, and subsequent action to make sure it is applied ASAP even though the election affected has already begun (which is the exact opposite of how they ruled in the past);

- the constant refusal of Hesgeth to commit to the rule of law;

- the prosecution brought against six lawmakers for daring to remind soldiers they can only follow lawful orders;

- the constant accusations of voter fraud that don't exist;

- the attempt to forbid early voting, impose citizenship obligations

- etc, etc, etc.

Reminder also that Trump never commited to accept the results of the 2024 election before he won. Not a single time.

Have you considered stomping your feet more?

But really, don’t you think it is just so interesting that almost all of Reddit agrees with you almost verbatim. How strange that they are have your exact talking points!

I understand you may be confused by the existence of a shared objective reality.
