TN racist gerrymandering allowed

Tldr: gerrymandering (dividing districts unfairly to manipulate voting) is anti-democratic for BOTH PARTIES and it needs to be stopped. I think we should add something to all state constitutions in order to restore SOME power to the people.

I just wrote this whole thing, then when I tried to post it, it failed. So now I'm going to save this one and keep reposting it until it works to see if it was a valid crash or if it's being suppressed. (It's prob a valid crash, but still):

Starting off basic, democracy means ruled BY THE PEOPLE. Gerrymandering is a direct attack against this. It's lawmakers moving districts around to give their respective party more power. This is anti-democratic, because the few are controlling the many (we're living in an oligarchy-esque country).
Basically, gerrymandering is a spit in the face to the public. And I'm not even bringing up the idiocy of gerrymandering for racist reasons, that's a spit in the face and a hand grabbing our necks. Keeping us nice and complacent. Hopefully we'll keep silent too! Fuck the TN politicians who passed this, and the judges who allowed it too. You guys are anti-democratic sellouts, how can those idiots sleep at night???
There is SOMETHING we can do though (we need to cause a stink). Ohio used to be one of the worst gerrymandered states in the whole country. But they got sick of these politicians lying and cheating to maintain their corrupt power. So, they tried to amend their state constitution. They stated all district divisions had to be public and bipartisan agreement. This means that that the corruption shouldve been lesser, but because of complicationed wording and pushback from politicians it failed.
We need EVERY state to amend their constitution to do this, and then we need to hold judges accountable.
