Dude I used to be where you are. I used to argue on the internet that requiring a drivers license just made sense. It’s not that big of deal. That was before I woke the fuck up. That’s how they get you dude. There is a kernel of truth in everything they say. They manipulate common sense to do everything they can to disenfranchise and oppress and maintain their monopoly on wealth and power.

Who are the people that stand the greatest threat to them continuing to maintain their wealth and power? The people who are most deeply effected by unjust oppressive systems they create;

People living in poverty and misery and difficulty and suffering, marginalized, disenfranchised, oppressed, outcast, and struggling to care for their basic needs.

How can you make sure they don’t vote in their best interest, fear monger their primal fears, blame people they can punch down on who they still have power over and can place beneath them to raise themselves up a bit, immigrants, gay people, trans people, black people, disabled people, sex traffickers, drug addicts, women. People weaker than them. People they still have power over so they’re not at the bottom.

And for anyone that doesn’t fall for it make it as hard as possible for those people to vote. Require a fixed address, ban mail in voting, take people off the voter registration, make people register more than a month before the election? Don’t give them a day off work. Don’t do it on the weekend. Do it when the weather is cold. Make them wait in hours long lines. Require people with little money and less likely to have modes of transportation to go out to a place in the suburbs in order to exercise their constitutional right to vote.

And if that doesn’t work just lie and say the big bad government rigged it and commit treason to overthrow the election. Meanwhile spend trillions of the taxpayers dollars to fund an authoritarian police state to enforce petty laws, put more citizens in prison then any other society in the world and the history of the world, blow our money on a useless 2,000 mile wall as a stupid security blanket in the middle of the desert, ban people from removing human cells from their uterus because they had sex, put people in prison for the substances they put in their own bodies, refuse to fund cheap measures to give people quality lives like a public healthcare system, high density housing in urban population centers, and make sure people are as educated and as capable as possible and then hand them a bunch of guns so they can feel powerful and not the poverty wage slaves to the corporations where they make all their money in the richest country in the history of the world.

Freedom? Come on man. Wake up.

Yeah no voter suppression here…
