  • You pack and you crack.

    You either try and pack as many opposition voters into as few districts is possible, or you crack opposition districts and spread their voters to districts you think have enough favorable demographics for you to still win.

    But they did all this math based on voter data from the last presidential election, and those demographics have now swung wildly in the other direction, at least according to more recent elections.

    So they created a whole bunch of GOP districts that only had a few points of advantage, but that advantage was based off Trump 2024 results.

    Is this copium? Maybe, maybe not.

    They really did make these decisions based off that voter data, and subsequent election results raise the possibility that they're really fucking up here, but only time will tell if those trends hold.

  • Is this the same Texas map that was drawn up using voting data based on Trump's 2024 victory?

    Because if so, does it not then have the potential to water down enough districts to make them swing districts, based off of more recent demographic voting trends?

  • Apparently it's unpopular to call it the DoW, and while I realize that Congress has yet to officially change it, I think it's a much more appropriate, and accurate, name.

    When was the last time the DoD was engaged in a defensive war?

    So unless they plan on further changing it to the Department of War Crimes, I think DoW is as good as we can hope for a name that aligns with their actual purpose.

  • AI slop, be gone.

    Can a mod please remove this post?

  • It was used exclusively by his viewers who had formed parasocial relationships.

    Literally, no one else.

  • Parasocial relationships are wild.

  • Having seen multiple videos of him ranting about unions, I find your claim laughable.

    But wow, I wasn't aware that a law firm they paid said they did nothing wrong, that changes everything.

  • It's too soon....to forget about his last great piece of content.

  • To be fair, he's extremely forgettable.

  • You realize that most of us here have watched plenty of LTT content, right?

    I don't know if you would call it a regular occurrence, but on more than a few videos I've watched he has made explicitly anti-union comments, including saying that organized labor is unnecessary.

    And looking at your comment history, you're an avid LTT viewer, so you already knew that.

  • He has no arms...

    Given the charges, that leaves me with some additional questions...

  • All of the data you generate when using Reddit...posts, comments, view tracking, voting, subreddit subscriptions, etc.

  • I hope people aren't under the impression that Lemmy is about privacy.

    Arguably it's even less private than Reddit, as at least Reddit has some sort of controls on who can access your data i.e. whoever pays.

    But on Lemmy, that's free with federation. Maybe not the same granular tracking data, but enough of users personal data is available as to not consider Lemmy to be a privacy centric service.

  • I don't care if this is debunked in the next millisecond, this is my head canon from now till the end of time.

  • I do, and trust me, I do.

  • I would rather manage Apple ecosystem devices for family than Windows any day of the week.

  • Nothing else hits like a good old-fashioned European museum jewelry heist.
