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.
this is the death rattle of the GOP and if Biden and the Ds have the stomach to fight the voter supression of the current moment the GOP will be Balkanized
i want to just print this out and hand it to all the olds i work with that bitch to me constantly about younger generations
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.
The next thing you know we'll have true Democracy and we simple ass whites cant have a fair and balanced election with people voting I know people aren't a fan of Jermele Hill, but she nailed the GOP
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.
There would be a dearth of qualified candidates then. The megalomania it takes to think you should make decisions that will affect millions...
Well the Dilbert guy knows a thing or two about getting involved with a woman 40 years younger than you are
this is just so bad. It’s incredible that this is coming at the party level. This isn’t like some fringe group of 5-10 of their crazies. This is the mainstream of their party
his people have to be pissed. They want him nowhere near this when he gets charged. Glad he inserted himself into this before Gaetz gets charged
800 violations, but here, let’s penalize the black chick. Mind you fuck her for being on his staff, but Ivanka broke them almost daily.
FWIW OSC doesn’t (and didn’t) have jurisdiction to sanction Ivanka or Conway or anyone else on the President’s staff, only the White House did.
This interview is pretty wild. I’m assuming this is a Sinclair network, or at least I hope. https://www.wlox.com/video/2021/03/26/sec-state-michael-watson-election-reform-efforts/
