What if Soros and his ilk find a way to legally monetize/incentivize voting?

With social media and smartphones, it seems like the possibility already exists; especially when you factor in left-leaning companies like Amazon, Google, Facebook, TimeWarner, etc.

If African Americans under 35 and young adults under 35 suddenly started voting at the same rate as retired whites, the country would be dramatically transformed into something almost unrecognizable within 4 years of the advent of such an incentivization process.

This thought has been terrorizing me for the past couple of nights after the strange turnout in Alabama.

Examples:

Dating app like Tinder gives you priority status for free for 2 weeks if it senses that you spend 5 minutes or longer at your local precinct while voting is open.

Amazon gives you a free month of Prime if it senses that you spend 5 minutes or longer at your local precinct.

Uber gives you free rides valued up to $15 for every person that you drive to the polls

Some of these may be too dicey in terms of violating voting laws, but the Tinder aspect is closer. You don't pay for the service, but you get special consideration that could improve your life.

Wouldn’t there be a trace of it? After all, most AAs are subhuman vermin who would literally need the conspiracy spoonfed and spelled out for them, right?

Its gong to happen sooner or later as whites will become a minority due to mass immigration and will simply be outnumbered. Also, yank carpetbaggers moving south for jobs dont help either. They all vote democrat and dont assimilate and largely look down on southerners.

I'm not demonizing AA's, I'm saying that their voting power if harnessed would be devastating in its impact on American politics (according to MY worldview, anyway). I don't like that AA's vote the way they do, but that doesn't make me dislike AA's in general.

This is why universal suffrage is a bad idea.

The pool of eligible voters should be sophisticated enough to be beyond trivial manipulation.

Who do you think funds BLM? Soros already found a way to pay for votes/protests and pretty much anything he wants. Probably wrote the Dossier through one of his lawyers.

That's really not true - at least not in 2016. Transplants from the Midwest who moved to Florida's west coast literally saved the election for Trump.

Michigan and Wisconsin and Ohio and Iowa are likely safer Republican than North Carolina and Texas are.

They have gotten more Republican as the Democrat party has reached out to minorities more aggressively.

Soros is old as hell. Do you guys have a boogeyman-in-waiting for when he eventually passes?

Yeah but my point is - what if they're only starting to figure it out?

What if right now we're in the "AOL" phase of Soros and BLM and black voter turnout.

What if in 10 years we'll be in the "Amazon Prime" phase and America is basically a socialist / cradle to grave nation that looks more like France than America?

Maybe in sone cases. I've witnessed a lot of what I described. Sure, it's anecdotal but it does exist.

It could be Zuckerberg. It could be Shaun King backed by Silicon Valley types. It could be Alex Soros who is only like 30.

Yeah I guess your point is more true than I made it out to be.

But if Latinos, Blacks, and kids under 30 start voting at a 65% clip instead of the current 35% clip it will swamp anything white people do anyway.

Some people will always be looking for a boogeyman to explain things they don’t understand.
