The CBC has about 60 members. That is waaaaay overrepresented as a percentage of the population.
They've been given special privalege for over 60 years. And they haven't done a damn thing with it.
I beg to differ.
A number of them have used the position to grift a bunch of money...
Why not just draw districts equally with no regard for race or politics and let representative democracy do its thing?
because dems claim that is (or was) a violation of the VRA; you realize that dems consider "giving no regard to race" racism right*? *your side considers everything racism...
so...do you want to draw districts with no regards to race or do you want to allow special privileges for one racial group?
I thought my post was pretty self explanatory, but maybe not so let me try to word it a little more clearly.
Shouldn't we draw all districts equally without regard for race or politics and let representative democracy do its thing?
We should not use race/judge people based on race in any scenario. Which is why the recent Callais decision is a step in the right direction. (Agree?). You do realize that Dems hate this concept right? If anything socioeconomic is should be used.
And the continued partisanship (making districts safe "R" or "D") is not sustainable. *I generally strongly dislike the idea of the two party (or any "party") system.
I've been trying to tell y'all for years I'm not a democrat. I'm a centrist independent that likes to play devil's advocate on opinion forums. As radically leftist as y'all think I am is exactly how MAGA righty the folks at Inside Texas think I am. I'm a contrarian at heart.
well you play dumb democrat great! so kudos on nailing their idiocy
Thanks man! What I'm really trying to do is call out hypocrisy where I see it. And unfortunately, all I see is a ton of "When my team does it it's great, but when the other team does it it's horrible."
Until we get to the point where honesty, integrity, character and statesmanship are valued again, we're gonna be on the brink of civil war or a national divorce. The crazy thing is, I've never had a single proponent of that particular situation be able to explain exactly how it would work.
