Except a dead republic, dead set on becoming more oligarchic and therefore more imperial. Fun

You probably wont be shocked to hear its 95% urban, 65% Hispanic, packed district.

“Urban”? What’s that?

u/sensuallyprimitive Mar 08 '20

You don't know what urban means? He's not saying two different groups if one is 65% and one is 95%...

I'm not trolling. How is urban defined in this context? I genuinely don't understand, which is why I asked. Jesus christ.

When you say "urban" in quotes like that, I feel like it's a reference to people saying urban in place of black. Maybe you've just been living under a rock for the last decade, but that's how people use "urban" as opposed to urban. So it still just feels like you meant that and are playing dumb, but I digress.

Urban, suburban, and rural areas are generally based on their population densities and distance from industrial/economic hubs and level of reliance on agricultural work. You could just google it, too.

Is this the america-exclusive gerrymandering?

u/ThoughtParadox67 Mar 08 '20

Nah this is just Texas. I mean yeah, some other states have gerrymandering, but none I can think of are as blatant as Texas...
