The Conservative Supreme Court Rules Against GOP's Race-Based Gerrymandering - Yet Again

Alan: The Republican Party's determination to deprive American citizens of proportional representation is an enduring monstrosity normalized by the persistence of "standard operating procedure."

Were it not for "political correctness," we would call race-based gerrymandering racist, anti-democratic and white supremacist.

An overlooked element in the GOP's eagerness to impede and, when possible, eliminate the electoral power of black (and brown) Americans is the "End Time" expectation that drenches "Christian" "conservatives," four out of five of whom voted for Trump, a vile egotist whose pronouncements are at least as shifty as "Satan" himself. 

Trump Elected President, Thanks to 4 in 5 White Evangelicals

Although "Christian" "conservatives" routinely deny (and otherwise scotomize) the anti-democratic thrust of their theocratic passion, these Trump supporters are fundamentally hostile to Liberal Democracy as established by America's mostly Deist Founding Fathers.  

There are two ways of lying, as there are two ways of deceiving customers. If the scale registers 15 ounces, you can say: "It's a pound." Your lie will remain relative to an invariable measure of the true. If customers check it, they can see that they are being robbed, and you know by how much you are robbing them: a truth remains as a judge between you. But if the demon induces you to tamper with the scale itself, it is the criterion of the true which is denatured, there is no longer any possible control. And little by little you will forget that you are cheating.
