Ehhhhhhhh

I don't agree with that but I rather not get into it

I like coming here to see *all* hope isn't lost for America. Looking at my newsfeed I've seen enough of the "Orange man bad, we have to really behind whoever gets the nomination" to fear this might be the time they actually do put aside their own values to vote for whoever the DNC chooses

@Shadoukitsune I feel the same way ❤

*clings to you* save me O.O lol

Lol. Boys will be boys

unless they are at a BBQ being watched by an endless line of men BBQing, then it must be stopped at all costs

Running BBQ train

Sadly it's a lot of females on my timeline who arw very politically outspoken then pull the race card to shut down further debate

RepealThe19th

I'll gladly give it up if it stops the masses

I liked the "only land owners get a vote" idea, seems easier to weed out the schleps

Without having a complete collapse or revolution or something, is pitching the idea of limiting voting rights ever going to be a tenable position?

No lol

People don't like to give up legitimate rights

Nor should they

I have been toying with the idea of household votes for a while now. Only allowing people with an investment in the future (via marriage and a family or military service) a vote.

it will never happen though, even with a revolution it probably wont happen

Especially if the wrong sorts of people get to decide who can or can't vote. Too risky

Right. I'm warming up to ideas along that line as well, but it also sounds completely infeasible

Remember, most revolutions go south after the overthrow when radicals take over, see France, Russia, Iran, etc

I have been thinking of writing a paper/book on the structure of government for a few days, really caused by the voting rights thought previously mentioned

I have a sort of similar idea about military/other civil service giving the right to vote, mostly stolen from starship troopers. It could never happen in America or really any existing state though

Hell, the idea we need to show proof of citizenship to vote is controversial. There's no way you could reform voting like that.

I think the whole ‘service guarantees citizenship’ concept is overrated. It wouldn’t do a thing to prevent the insanity we see now.

I just finished the podcast at work

I completely disagree with the tranny they showed. Hell, we were making fun of her on my tranny server. Trans woman are male and trans men are female

🤷

But, hormones do change risk factors for diseases. Trans woman have similar breast cancer rates as cis women and need to have mammograms. Trans men have similar heart disease rates as cis men

Yeah, trans woman are biologically male, but changing your endocrine system is going to affect more than not

React to this if you love your mom/dad/guardian/Matt/blond

What? Any one???

Hi

Hello

New to the discord here. I need to watch the Sunday show. I saw part of it yesterday.

@mecookie100 it's a good one, I finished it at work

lol @Shadows weren't you and i discussing voting rights just a few days/weeks ago?

welcome @mecookie100

@Chump_or_Champ Yep, its fun to throw around ideas of what might be useful, or what could possibly work. But if we ever created a tier voting system. It would just make our system unstable, when the people who have no voice in their governance become discontent.

chaos or revolt could ensue

You should always try to think of what people Will do in the systems you are creating/created, not just what you Want them to do or think is best. We have enough people as it is with discontentment over our government (even when its running fairly well). Now just think about how that would work if they didn't even have a option at all to change anything or have a say in the matter...
