It's irritating that normies eat up any legislation sold as "protecting kids." It's like it shuts off a part of the brain.

The founding fathers didn't think everyone should vote, and frankly i think they're right. They had the wrong criteria, sure, but the average person is so gullible, uninformed, and just plain stupid that i genuinely think they (and everyone else) would be better off without a say.

But how to be more selective without it being abused by horrible people? I've got no real idea.
