[green, pointing to a clock with Hitler above it, that reads 11:30] Oh no, look… It's half to Hitler
[yellow, annoyed] Chill out buddy, don't be such an alarmist
[green, pointing to a clock with Hitler above it, that reads 11:45] Oh no, look… It's quarter to Hitler
[yellow, rude] Yeah I get it, I tweeted about it, leave me be
[green, pointing to a clock with Hitler above it, that reads 11:55] Oh no, look… It's five to Hitler
[yellow, scared] Oh shit oh fuck, we really need to do something NOW
[green, pointing to a clock with Hitler above it, that reads 11:59] Oh shit, look… It's one to Hitler
[yellow, terrified] It's too late now, wish we could have seen it coming earlier
In other words, voters are morons.
Remember, half of American voters can't read better than a middle school student
It's more than half actually
Voters are just people. People are largely morons, so yes.
That's correct yes
When education is purposefully defunded and left to rot for decades now, is it really that surprising things are the way they are? When voters are more educated, they tend to vote Democrat.
If a country wants to prevent this, then it needs protections that can’t go away for education. Furthermore, media companies need to be held to higher standards of reporting, and at this point I feel that influencers should fall under that bucket as well.
Personally, I don’t hate the idea of tying the ability to vote behind getting any Associates Degree. With the caveat that the college would need to be free and accessible to anyone that wishes to go, with a room and food expenses covered to accommodate people. I feel this is a fairer way to get Aristotle’s idea of restricting voting to the educated.
