The primary problem we have are people that doesn't pay attention that vote. This was a huge argument for the Anti-suffrage movement +100 years ago. The argument was women shouldn't spend their valuable time on matters of the state. Which +85% of the women polled didn't want the vote at that time. Which is interesting
You say they’re after us and I agree. But, what do we do? Most people will dutifully put on a mask and walk over the edge like lemmings if told to do so.
You’re spot on about folks not paying attention and being allowed to vote. But, things are so partisan now, there’s no going back, IMHO.
But, your argument goes a lot further than paying attention, voting, etc that is happening now. It goes back decades when no one was paying attention to who the teachers were. What their kids were being taught. Who was on their school boards. Who was in the tax assessors office. Who the Chief of Police was. And how they allowed so many things to be rammed down their throats because they were paying attention until it was too late. You can take your argument and apply to pretty much every negative thing that has taken place in our country since the 70s, if not further.
