The American experiment has well and truly failed in the Information Age. Emotional ties to national politics guide most voters far more than self-interest or even oblivious interests of the local community. Gerrymandering has silenced local communities but has also become a weapon yielded that cannot be ignored. “When they go low, we go high” was naive back then. It’s suicidal now.
Gerrymandering is just a symptom of the monolithic fascism that is designed to funnel tax breaks to and end corruption investigations of the oligarchs who run everything. They steal our money and rape children right in front of our eyes, and they get away with it.
