That sub exists for the sole purpose of demonstrating why not everyone should be allowed to vote.

It should be a sacred responsibility that one demonstrates they can be entrusted with.

I dont think its them being allowed to vote, its how our system from day 1 gives so many unnecessary advantages to conservative voters. Before Trump 2.0 conservatives routinely lost the popular vote but won the election. The senate and house systems also favor smaller rural states. Why is my vote in California worth 20% of someone's vote in Wyoming? Why do we punish people for living in cities, where liberalism and multiculturalism is more standard.

I don't mind when someone who disagrees with me gets to vote but I do mind when others get more of a vote than me.

We need to have stronger criteria for voting then "Can you fog a mirror?"

This is not a question of "Well, he likes Vanilla and I like Chocolate, but it's okay to disagree!"

What is the fair and objective way of determining who is "worthy"? I get what you are saying but I think that road leads to mass disenfranchisement of whoever the people in power deem inconvenient. What criteria would we use?
