Always keep in mind Republicans goal is to be a monkeywrench in the machine. Civil litigation means every angry idiot on Facebook can waste any state government departments time and resources with some bogus vague lawsuit. This means people who maxed out their political donations can keep on contributing to the cause under the table by funding these idiots lawyers to sue the parks department for having woke signs up teaching about slavery. The parks were already on a shoestring budget, now spend all this money on culture war instead of infrastructure. People’s communities degrade, they get angry, and they have no idea who started the fire so they vote republican, cuz those guys are angry too and they say who’s to blame: scary people who are different to what you know!

It’s their way of enacting what would otherwise be unconstitutional laws. Totally bullshit, because it let’s people sue violators without having to actually prove the so called victims actually suffered any harm; but given that these lawsuits are from other citizens, not the government, somehow that’s just peachy and totally OK.

This is all in spite of the fact that these laws setup enforcement of policies that fly in the face of the Constitution.

It’s the GOP’s modern “I’m not touching you!” bullshit.

It’s their new thing. Pay some goon to file frivolous lawsuits and tie up everything in court.
