Nope.

What the fuck.

And specifically targeting girls. How the fuck does something like this even get on the ballot?

I think I understand your argument completely. I just think you’re wrong.

You claimed that states have had success with voting tests too, but that doesn’t appear to be true from my own research. It’s not even supported by the link you gave.

And apparently you are misunderstanding my argument in that I said a specific set of very easy questions a fifth grader could answer.

What have I said that leads you to believe I do t understand this?

I would've been happy to continue this discussion, but your attitude is argumentative and off-putting so I'll spend my time elsewhere.

🙄

Did you include that quote / link as an example of states that have run successful voting test programs?

That’s really great that they “[allegedly] did not begin as a racial tool.” How did it go for those states?

If you think there wasn’t a shitload of racism and voter suppression in the North, then I guess maybe you shouldn’t be able to vote. Or am I misunderstanding your argument?

Some states actually ran successful voter test programs

Really? Which ones?

I couldn’t find any with my internet sleuthing skills. Just a bunch of stuff about voter suppression.

I believe that any test, even if done in good faith initially, will inevitably lead to voter suppression against some minority group.

How is what you suggested different?

"I will contrive the world to my own advantage. I will kill, lie, destroy, steal, pillage, and salt the earth. I will make my loss as unbearable to everyone around me as I can until I'm handed a win.

Yeesh where the hell did you go to 2nd grade?

Which is why we famously endorse open ballots in all elections.

Ah yes, the ugly truth of the shitty privacy of the fediverse.

I’ve already seen everything. I’ve seen it all.
