this is excellent

stigmatizing Rowling’s weaponization of childhood not only requires personal withdrawal for most people, it necessitates something much more difficult: being a giant fucking killjoy. You should tell people discussing the show that you’re not watching it, and why, and you should let yourself openly cringe at your sister-in-law’s Harry Potter tote bag, and you should bring up unprompted that the onslaught of legislation against trans people makes you sad and angry, presuming it does, and you should do this because, not despite, the fact that it will make you look annoying as hell and may make everyone present uncomfortable. (You probably won’t even get the kudos of looking like a cool ally, because you’re still ultimately talking about Harry Potter. Sorry about that.)

To understand what the Supreme Court is doing, you have to recognize that this is how authoritarians in Hungary, Turkey, and Venezuela consolidated power. Scholars call it autocratic legalism. The Court isn’t complicit. It’s an active participant. Roberts is following a script.

The conservative majority has learned to use anti-discrimination language as the vehicle for preserving discrimination. Justice Kavanaugh’s suggestion that remedies for racism must have an “end point” inverts the logic of the Reconstruction Amendments. They were written to empower Congress to act against racial domination, not to set an expiration date on equality. This will be the Roberts Court’s legacy: using the Constitution not to expand freedom, but to protect established hierarchies. The Court has simply found a new minority to protect—not racial or religious minorities, but a political party whose power endures through structural advantage, even when it commands fewer votes.

Where the Court has shown the greatest deference is to power itself, culminating in the decision granting Donald Trump sweeping legal immunity for “official acts”—a ruling that defies global democratic norms, where dozens of presidents and prime ministers have been prosecuted and convicted of crimes in recent years. The Court is thus working on two fronts: shielding the leader of the anti-democratic movement from accountability while simultaneously dismantling the electoral rules that allow the majority to vote his party out.

The Supreme Court's Republicans just gutted the Voting Rights Act, severely weakening democracy. By 2028, Republicans could erase many VRA congressional seats and entrench state legislative supermajorities across the South—and oust Black, Latino, & Native officials from local governments nationwide

U.S. state map showing states in red where Republicans could eliminate Voting Rights Act-protected congressional districts that are predominantly Black or Latino and currently held by Democrats.

By 2028, Republicans could target VRA seats in:
Alabama: 2
Florida: 1
Georgia: 2
Louisiana: 2
Mississippi: 1
South Carolina: 1
Tennessee: 1
Texas: 2 (Texas Republicans could further weaken another 4 VRA seats held by Democrats that they already targeted in 2026 and 2 seats that Republicans currently hold)
Total: 12

Alito flatly ignoring congressional intent in Callais — Congress specifically clarified that you do not need to prove racial intent when bringing a racial vote dilution claim because it's so hard to do. If the effects of the map are discriminatory, that used to be enough. No longer
