It's a scam promoted by #racist, calling for "color blind" laws that the 1965 #VotingRightsAct was written to fix.
And Tuesday's #SCotUS ruling fell for the trap, ruling for "race neutral" redistricting that delivers exactly what the racists want.

@MugsysRapSheet I'm not sure if "fell for it" is as accurate as "orchestrated it".
