They did a really good job on ads. Don’t look up how much they spent just on fooling the population.

As I said repeatedly, in not envisioning a copy of the extremely flawed system that was used previously. I was simply sharing my thoughts that a test would probably be a better alternative to the reeducation camps the poster I was originally responding to suggested, I'm not campaigning or even seriously suggesting we implement a test.

And apparently you are misunderstanding my argument in that I said a specific set of very easy questions a fifth grader could answer.

I would've been happy to continue this discussion, but your attitude is argumentative and off-putting so I'll spend my time elsewhere.

Hope you have a lovely day anyways though!

I think I understand your argument completely. I just think you’re wrong.

You claimed that states have had success with voting tests too, but that doesn’t appear to be true from my own research. It’s not even supported by the link you gave.

What have I said that leads you to believe I do t understand this?
