Maybe lower the age to 16 or 17 but thats still a big *maybe* for me

Children don't have enough life experience

Even at 16 and 17

@twomoo1119 why should children not be allowed to vote?

Also they're likely to be influenced by parents or guardians

i am talking 5 or something

Their brains have not yet fully biologically developed.

Oh

Same reason why they shouldn't be smoking weed.

I think voting age should be in the 20s

Other than "it's a sin"

25 at most

Well for starters you should at least take a civics course before voting

And have the capacity to understand politics at some level

Generally being in the workforce is also a good idea before allowing people to vote

Imo

It should be a requirement to be employed

Idk

A person who can't do his taxes shouldn't have a vote.

At least age of employment

@twomoo1119 I am sure there are 5 years old that habe a better understanding of politics than some 18 year olds

Otherwise the bloody ancaps will overtake us.

Probably also out of high school

Eww

@Kazimir Malevich ancaps aren't that significant of a population.

Ancaps

Also how did you get your position roles Kaz?

@King Leopold II That was tongue-in-cheek remark which meant more accurately "people who don't understand economics"

If you can’t pass a high school government class you can’t vote

^

It'd be more than ancaps

+ high schoolers are too edgy

They would vote for the communist party ironically

Yep

@King Leopold II Go to <#507040923884978176> and use ?ranks

So the current age is fine for the most part

And use ?rank enterrankname so you can join one.

My issue with limiting votes to a minority of people to protect values is that only a minority of the population holds those values

The worst part about voting debates is when people say "Alright, you can vote, **but only [the group I like or tolerate] can vote.**

No

I think everyone should vote
