It's so fucking wild to me that the majority opinion is basically: "It's not gerrymandered for racist reasons. It's just gerrymandered for normal, political reasons. So that's totally cool."

This is yet another example in a long line of examples of why this supreme court is awful. This is a very clear first amendment violation, and the brief is supported by two well-known first-amendment champions, and yet the supreme court decided to not hear the case. According to the 6th district court of appeals, you now have to explicitly state that a piece is satire before you can write anything satirical, or else potentially face charges.

Oh hey - catturd2; isn't that that sycophantic piece of shit who fawns all over Elon Musk every chance he gets? Maybe it's a different catturd2 on bluesky.

Edit: Actually, yeah; it does look like it's a different person entirely:

I honestly don't blame Chief Wiggum here. Acorn Lenny is fucking terrifying.

I recently read Neil Stephenson's book called "Fall", in which a significant chunk of the novel is set about 30 years in the future. At that point in time, large swathes of America are referred to as "Ameristan", because they are break-away territories ruled by evangelical warlords. It feels surprisingly prescient.

Ah, a fellow "Cracking the Cryptic" lover, I see.
