LOL, here I was trying to figure out the significance of the rest of it.

I gotchu

But it doesn’t have the same Valium-like effect on the voting populace when there’s just one dictator. So in the US they like to have two dictators with the exact same goals but different marketing strategies/identities to keep up the charade for those fools that are too comfortable or busy working four jobs to realize it.

~~We live in a society~~

USA is a flawed democracy. Very flawed, but still a democracy, since your votes matter.

• Gerrymandering is deeply undemocratic.

Rather than voters choosing their representatives, gerrymandering empowers politicians to choose their voters. This tends to occur especially when line drawing is left to legislatures and one political party controls the process, as has become increasingly common. When that happens, partisan concerns almost invariably take precedence over all else. That produces maps where electoral results are virtually guaranteed even in years where the party drawing maps has a bad year.

• Gerrymandering has a real impact on the balance of power in Congress and many state legislatures.

On the state level, gerrymandering has also led to significant partisan bias in maps. For example, in 2018, Democrats in Wisconsin won every statewide office and a majority of the statewide vote, but thanks to gerrymandering, won only 36 of the 99 seats in the state assembly.

• Gerrymandering affects all Americans, but its most significant costs are borne by communities of color.

Targeting the political power of communities of color is also often a key element of partisan gerrymandering. This is especially the case in the South, where white Democrats are a comparatively small part of the electorate and often live, problematically from the standpoint of a gerrymanderer, very close to white Republicans. Even with slicing and dicing, discriminating against white Democrats only moves the political dial so much. Because of residential segregation, it is much easier for map drawers to pack or crack communities of color to achieve maximum political advantage.

The fact that you would see it this way as a Russian makes sense. Unlike Russia, the American information space has at least retained the facade of being free and generally accurate. What you are missing is that the Republicans have been gutting our educational system for over 50 years, media consolidation has given the political establishment significant control over what ideologies are or are not given favorable coverage, and social media algorithms have been tuned to favor establishment information sources. For those with the time and inclination, it is certainly possible to be informed, and I'm sure it's easier than in Russia, but most Americans don't have the time or media sophistication to understand anything but establishment narratives. Those of us who are informed get absolutely swamped out by misinformed or outright delusional voters.

And every single dime from billionaires supported Israel first rule over America.

I think you're underselling how much of that money was focused on crushing green economies and forcing people back to O&G consumption.
