Blue states should go ahead with plans to redistrict regardless of what happens. Play for the political landscape you have, not the political landscape you want. The way maps are already gerrymandered nets Republicans 16 seats in the House.

they're all gonna pick-up permanent surveillance courtesy of pissbaby abbott, as soon they set foot back in texas (if they don't already have that, wherever they are). then another special session will be called, these rebellious democrats will be denied their constitutional right of free travel between the states, and the house gains 5+ more maga nutcases.
This is clear evidence that if the opposition party fights, they can win. I'm heartbroken that it's taken this much suffering of people with little political defense to show an example but we've made it.
I pray to whatever thing(/s) that might be out there that Democrats will take this example and fight like an opposition party should going forward.
Even if it's selfishly motivated. This strategy will get you votes. See the republicans actions for the past decades

Amen! We have been BEGGING Dems to fight for us for years, but they have treated their cowardice like a virtue, and acted smug about it. They allowed the MAGA Nazis to grow and steal power, and are still doing nearly nothing about it.
The TX Dems are only a dim light in the smoke, but we have to follow it, and make it brighter.
Still a bunch of genocide supporters but ill admit im surprised they actually did something more than A Strongly Worded Letter®
Nooooooo Democrats are the woooorrrrst! There’s no way I’d vote for them next November when almost everything is on the line again!
Ohhh nooo how could I not vote for genocide lite!
You’d rather let the other side win that will outright allow for the extermination of every Palestinian then? Grow up and quit being a piss baby.
Like it or not, abstaining from voting or voting in the general election for a party that is something other than ‘genocide-lite’ will be an effective vote for ‘genocide-heavy.’
Vote HOWEVER you wish in the primary, but please vote carefully in the general.
How’s it working out?
