How many worse ideas were there in American history than universal suffrage?

I love my wife. She despises foreigners.

And I never mentioned the 19th though I would be euphoric to see it gone. I would very much want to bar a portion of men from voting as well

So take your attrocious humor elsewhere please

Not sending all the slaves back to Africa after the Revolution is one.

They built America though didn’t know?

It totally wasn’t the massive influx of German and Irish immigrants. It was the Wakandas

You're not helping bud. Normies don't "despise foreigners", we just don't want them stealing from our country or using their illegal votes to turn our country Communist

Normies don’t know what they want

We need a 10 year moratorium on all immigration

You can’t.

Populism wouldn’t even be a thing in concept under conditions I’d put forth which would be something to the effect of no voting for women and only men who meet a certain threshold or standard we judge to be sufficient can vote.

You offering to voluntarily bar yourself in an act of selfless patriotism?

I proposed a system I’d be interested in in the post directly above yours.

In that system if I didn’t meet the standard deemed necessary for a male to have suffrage I’d 100% give up my right to it. This is because I am successful and if I can’t clear the bar that means it’s high which I want it to be and I know I’ll be getting only the best of the best voting

Make the thread arguing this and eliminate the majority of male posters from being eligible to vote and see the reacts.

It is one of my favorite words that end with "ism".

As I said in my post above you, I’d happily forfeit my voting rights if I knew only people who are qualified, have a vested interest in the future of the country, and stand to lose big if they vote wrong if they’re deciding our future.

Currently those people are given the same weighted input as George Floyd was before he ascended

I get this, but you'd be putting a bunch of SFPs in power and removing it from the people who hate me (or, worse, are so dumb they think I am dumb).

They would have hated me too because I want to take their slaves away long before Lincoln did so your little gif doesn't track.

Also I didn't say ban African immigrants. There are plenty of great African immigrants and they absolutely despise the African Americans descended from the slaves.

If you can't recognize the never ending problems with how slavery gets brought up at every turn in this country that have fed into the white guilt then you're either blind or a dumbass.

The retards voting is more concerning than women. Although at least half of women are retarded too.

If you aren't paying more in taxes than direct government benefits you receive, you shouldn't be able to vote. If your IQ is under 100 (being generous here) you shouldn't be able to vote.
