Supreme Court is Minoritarian Rule | RevLeft/RedMenace

Alyson and Breht discuss the recent rulings by the Supreme Court, a wildly anti-democratic, thoroughly corrupt, and staunchly reactionary institution that the American right has spent years and billions of dollars capturing in order to impose its minoritarian rule on an American majority that firmly rejects what they stand for. And they do it all without having to worry for even a second about pesky things getting in their way: like democracy, human rights, or basic accountability to the American people.

The Senate is also a minoritarian institution by design. The entire US government is a minoritarian structure in practice and has been since its founding

If the House had kept pace with population growth since 1913, I calculate that there would be 1,560 seats now. Wow.
