    Oh I am aware, just being a bit of a dick. The first question for the 2022 and 2024 elections should be "Who won the 2020 Presidential election" and that should be a knockout question.

    This is exactly how Jim Crow voting laws worked. They prevented almost all blacks and almost all poor people from voting.

    Exactly. The people that I know who talk about shit like this hate poor white people as much or more than minorities. It's all from middle class and upper white people who want taxes lowered so a way to do that is to disenfranchise people who vote to "take my money."

    We're quickly moving past "illegals are voting that aren't supposed to" straight to "ideologically different shouldn't be eligible" without a drop of subtlety.

    Way up in the hierarchy of people who the right hates voting in college students. Not necessarily poor or minorities but haven't been in the real world and just want free college and have been brainwashed by the librul universities. All you need to know about it is how many right wingers go make gotcha videos on college campuses and it's just because young people overwhelming vote democrat.

    Ezra Klein’s latest pod was two millennials debating the extent to which boomers ruined this country and how they did it. Both agreed they had, but this absolute lunatic of a right wing fundamentalist woman (Helen Edwards) basically blamed a lot of it on more people going to college.

    In some respects the boomers are reaping what they sowed. They told us all to go to college so we did. More educated populace means more liberal populace generally. Now they hate the idea of university brainwashing because their kids learned some shit and told them and their ideals to fuck off.

    So I guess if you think left of center politics is bad it makes sense to think that.

    I think it's more likely to be voting for people who lowered taxes, raised military spending, sent our generation into unwinnable wars (after they'd gone through the same thing), constantly cut away at the social safety net, told us all to go to college while cutting funding to higher education, had historically high divorce rates, oversaw the explosion of home prices while minimum wage and wage increases stayed relatively stagnant so their kids took on way too much debt, made less money comparatively, lived at home longer, were unable to buy homes and get married and have children (if they even wanted to after seeing it go so poorly with their parents) until far later in life, you know, things like that.

    Also made Rush Limbaugh's political ideal a reality which ultimately led to Trumpism, a guy who incited the first coup in American history.

    they're all multi-millionaires who can and will just wait until it's "safe" for corporate Americans to hire them. Or they won't work at all. Elaine Chou and Mike Pompeo don't need jobs. Jesus, they're filthy rich.

    Conservatism is about punching down.

    Comedy is about punching up. The very nature of that imbalance of power is what makes it funny.

    The two are inherently incompatible.
