I complained about gerrymandering already in the Trump, Obama and Bush years.
Some of you guys really must stop to imply or imagine that truth is defined only along party borders.
Gerrymandering is being tried iny many other "democracies" as well, but as far as I can tell by far not on this excessive level than is the case in the US. And in combination with the unique voting system in the US it causes even worse consequences.
Sometimes I think the whole voting system in the US was designed from beginning on with the idea of manipulating elections on mind.
But then, I have a problem with the whole idea of general elections. I am with Jason Brennan on this. IMHO one should not call it voting but vommiting system. Its like a defect toilet. The bad stuff never flushes away but swims on top and then spills over. Still, people stand in line to take a deep breath and smell of the mess, and then compain afterwards.
Who casts a vote, has no right to complain, that simple it is. He gave his legitimasing and his consent for what follows in lie and in deed.
