My point was simply to remind Americans who might be reading that gerrymandering is indeed just regular old corruption, and should not be thought of as "just the way things are" or some such.

I know a lot of Americans have been tricked into thinking that the country is some sort of model democracy, although most of those probably aren't on lemmy, and the orange pedophile has done a marvelous job of demolishing what was left of the USA's reputation...but anyway, just hoping to nudge people in the direction of helping with that fight.
