I think you’re confusing NC state and federal legislative districts. The Brennan Center has all the rulings on their site if you feel up to reading them. The state’s voter suppression bill was found to target black voters specifically including on ID and other measures. Alabama is state districts, though one could make a case on their fed districts.

I don’t distract myself with the stuff you’re writing about. I focus on policies and how they affect people’s rights and lives. As I wrote in the original essay there are lots of excuses for perpetuating discriminatory systems that avoid overt sexism, racism, bigotry etc. Again if you’re more concerned about the intention game than the effects of policy that’s a pretty shallow politics.

Democracy is pretty cool. We should try it some time. Voting rights, science policy, political communication and grassroots activism.
