The article touches briefly on it, essentially even though a minority wants these terrible policies, that minority are the GOP base and are generally single issue voters and religious. That minority has an outsized say due to gerrymandering. And there is also a feedback loop in this country where the GOP gerrymanders, they cut education and other social services, blame the “enemy” for the downturn in QOL for their constituents, and repeat. It solidifies the us vs them mentality that has these people voting against their own interests.
Obviously super simplified outlook on it since it is a very complex issue. Other people in the thread have explained better.

The reason they are able to do this comes down to gerrymandering.
- Comment on The back-to-office backfire: Companies ending WFH perks lose out on top talent, who view flexible work as equivalent to an 8% raise 10 months ago:
I’d say 8% is even too low. I’d need like 12% before I even consider allowing someone to tell me where to work. And on top of it, you’ll have to pay me that much more and I would be way less productive as well.

- Comment on Where can I learn Docker fundamentals? 11 months ago:
This might not be a popular opinion, but I had a very short period of time between graduating school and starting work where I needed to learn docker and I found this course: serversforhackers.com/shipping-docker to be very helpful, they had a sale and I got the course and it taught me everything I needed in a few days.
You absolutely don’t need a course to learn it, but sometimes these can be easy shortcuts.

It’s interesting that the charges were dismissed, but I didn’t follow the case closely. I guess regardless it’s bad news and best to severe ties to Roiland
