SCOTUS’ decision had nothing to do with constitutionality, which I agree they have the authority to do. They chose not to even take the case, which essentially says laws don’t matter.

Many people either do not know details or are ignoring them. I live in Virginia. Here’s what’s been missing: people can do motor-voter registration, so when they get their driver’s licenses, or photo IDs, there’s a part on the form that asks them if they are citizens. Many people don’t read that far down the form and don’t check anything, and that, according to Virginia’s present governor and attorney general, who do just happen to be Republican, believe that means they aren’t. If you don’t say you are, you ain’t, according to them.
Many people who are not citizens when they first get their driver’s license eventually become citizens, and are not encouraged to change their status with the DMV when they do; I would guess many do not even think about it.
Lastly, the 1600 people taken off the roles does represents the total number, not just the ones in the 90 days before the election. They’ve been purging for a long time, monthly. One previous poster noted that the purge in question not only began on day-90 before election day, but that it was accelerated from monthly to daily purges.
The biggest issue to me is SCOTUS. It wasn’t enough for them to abandon precedent over and over in the last couple of terms. Not enough to give the President a get-out-of-jail-free card. Now they have decided that they can over-ride federal law.
I need not remind you how those people got their jobs.
Make sure you vote.

My mom tried the wash-my-mouth-out-with-soap, but she stopped because I blew bubbles and laughed.
My fourth-grade teacher was murder with her yardstick, and excellent at sneaking up on you. For the whole school year, I wore a coat and tie to school, because back then sport coats were heavily padded. I would pretend to be hurt when she wailed on me; never felt a thing. There are ways around that kind of discipline.
And I managed to grow up a decent human being, or so says my bio.

No. That is my educated evaluation of the SCOTUS ruling, and I am far from the only one who shares that opinion. People far more learned and experienced in the law have publicly published the same conclusion in different words.
If we could only have opinions about subjects we had advanced diplomas in, voting would be far different, for just one of thousands of examples.

You make fine points, and I agree. The fact that I hear cries of censorship does not mean that those cries have value. And the fact that those cries have no value makes absolutely no difference when those crying cry loudly and tell everyone they need to take their business elsewhwere. Typically, those who cry “cancel culture” the loudest are those trying to cancel something or someone.
As far as the quote you used: “Actually, it doesn’t, Ted. Quit your usual machiavellianing.”: I don’t know where that came from. It did not come from any of my posts, at any time, so I don’t know why it was included with my quote. Truly, it makes no sense to me; it is not something I would say.
Other than that, well said.

Who determines “empty assertions”? I hear cries of censorship. The first amendment is sometimes like a razor blade.

The mindset started much earlier than that, but there has been one person who has been given a worldwide megaphone since the birther days, and that’s who I was referring to.

The guy on the rooftop was engaging in legitimate political discourse.
Most of us are still around and still believe. I think there was some guy in the Middle East long ago who preached love and peace. He ended up being nailed to a tree, as I remember. Many other “peacenicks” have been killed, jailed, or otherwise denigrated by people who evidently feel that neither love nor peace belong in today’s excuse for “civilization”.
Our message has endured for thousands of years, but over and over the majority of humans choose guns and greed instead.
