In the start of this 3 part series, I did some interesting research back to about 1850 to find accounts about gerrymandering to discuss how it’s always been a problem, the odd problems it created as civil rights and big data come into the picture, and how the SCOTUS just decided to open the floodgates of reverse racism and partisan line drawing like never before. I suggest this is a further eroding democracy. Important to convey, this is one of many problems facing American and, by-in-large, contemporary liberal democracies but this is one of my areas where knowledge and concern intersect.
Parts 2 and 3 will continue with the rule of law and civil society.
I will use kleptocracy. I wanted to use manic kleptocracy but a colleague rightfully convinced me to drop manic.
The only time you want manic is that relationship with an alt chick in college that burns hot and fast.
Two things.
One. I’ll remember this whenever I want to use manic in my writing. Which is too often. Two. Alt chick in college that burns hot and fast. That hit me right in the things I clearly remember telling myself were a bad idea and was not surprised when they turned out to be area in my brain.
They’re always a bad idea, but feel so good.
This said, those are the relationships one learns from. It appears we shall have to do this as a country. I was on a choir tour in 1993 where we saw a lot of Nazi symbolism having been blown up.
