What Republicans are now preparing to do is hand that deadly, violent, invasive culture a targeting algorithm and a fleet of autonomous death-drones. Don't believe me? Keep reading.
I have, for decades, been asking anyone to show me that my vote in South Carolina District 04 means anything, and I’ve never had a response from even the most fanatical Vote-Blue-No-Matter-Who lib. Democratic votes mean nothing because there are rarely even a candidate on the ballot, while Republican votes don’t matter because all they get are candidates handpicked by the party. I have seen off-year election ballots that list a single Republican candidate for all the offices. South Carolina has two parties, the Republicans and the James Clyburn Party, both strong supporters of gerrymandering as it ensures their continued victory. It was the James Clyburn Party that ensured Biden’s primary win in 2019.
Their vote is the most important thing they have. It is the source for their insufferable smugness. Like a stone of power, their smugness draws upon it.

That is bleak. It really illustrates how hollow the calls to vote can be.
