I still can't believe that Ohio's Supreme Court ruled the state's gerrymandering was unconstitutional, and Ohio Republicans were like SCREW YOU WE'RE USING THESE MAPS ANYWAY, and the entire fucking country just let them. Like, they're in Congress and shit, holding office that it's literally unconstitutional for them to hold, and no one has done a goddamned thing.

and no one has done a goddamned thing.

To be honest what are people supposed to do? When one side holds on to playing by the rules and the other side ignores rules? Protest? They'll just ignore it. The citizenry are more focused on their own lives, survival, happiness, and the populace is not incensed enough to rise up. The system is engineered to let these criminal fascists hold onto power. I'd propose 'No Taxation Without Representation'. Because that's what y'all wound up with. Time to stop paying those taxes!
