I love how ~10 years ago, the left was frequently accused of having a victim mentality. Seems like the right enjoys believing they're perpetual victims these days.

Hell, if most of most Americans wealth is owning their house, redlining is gonna be the most influential thing to wealth inequality between pe…

Efforts towards gerrymandering, and the tendency of people to move out of states with laws that oppress them, make such actions future-proof.

Judicial overreach of felonies is a different discussion.
