The Nastier Nate posted:What are you talking about? Democrats love gerrymandering, they’re just too bad at winning control also remember that when republicans pack dem districts to make unfair republican majorities it also has the side effect of strengthening the political power of the dems in the packed districts. so if you're one of the dems it makes your life easier if you get gerrymandered to hell in a packed district

Edit: on it's face there's nothing really wrong with requiring an ID to vote. It only becomes an issue when you take into account the context of how IDs are handled in the US and the disparate impact out has on the poor. If you implemented a national ID than it completely disarms that suppression tactic because everyone can get one trivially. So if you can do that who gives a gently caress if the GOP wants ID laws. If done right you could play this issue against them.

Does anyone remember or have that D&D post from a while back with someone referencing an anime as part of an argument for why the US should go to war with China? Want to show it to my friend but forget where someone quoted it. I think it was quoted in this thread at some point.Shipon posted:god i hope so, it will be so funny for our annoying rear end generation to just get shut out of politics The sort of Gen Z people to end up in politics (or at least federal-level politics) will be sickos of the highest order, I guarantee you. The same is true for millennials, but I have a feeling that it'll actually become worse with younger generations. While the generations in question are worse-off materially with each successive one, the sort of people to be in politics will be from the privileged minority, and being a well-off member of a poor generational cohort is going to make these people even more like a modern aristocracy than their older counterparts (because any illusion of a meritocracy will be shattered, while the people in question still need to justify their own circumstances - they'll be forced to resort to increasingly more hosed up ideas to justify the situation).

Yeah the quiet part they're just barely not saying out loud here is that the loss of Voter ID as a talking point is an explicit net loss for Democrats as a political movement over fixing the underlying issue they're ~concerned~ about Like the fact that they frame this as a win/loss equation when it's a completely solvable access issue says everything that needs to be said about Democrats on voter ID Mirthless has issued a correction as of 19:08 on Jul 4, 2021 |
