The Supreme Court is allowing Virginia to resume its purge of voter registrations that the state says is aimed at stopping people who aren't U.S. citizens from voting.
Not really, when you consider the big picture of how there is no evidence of any illegal voting and removing voters is a Republican agenda because inconvenience is a tool for a party that never gets the popular vote directly. See criminal gerrymandering, and the anti democratic electoral collage. Take a real direct popular vote without these criminal biases and do so with ranked voting; Republicans will cease to exist.
Yeah, that’s exactly what I meant and tbh I’m not sure how people didn’t get that. Also, the state of Virginia is being active here by purging these voters in the first place. Status quo bias is a real thing and the AP seems to be bending over backwards to use it to make Republicans in Virginia and on the supreme court seem more reasonable than they’re being.

A lot of us are in a state of hypervigilance regarding conservative apologia, I think. False positives. Too keyed up, too ready to reach for the reflexive rebuke.

They may mean that the phrasing makes SCOTUS sound passive, when they are arguably being ‘active’ in this by overturning a lower court’s ruling.
Honestly, I wish I could change the headline.
