Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
Be civil

No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.

Note the "in general" part (paying them to vote in the way they want to)
Note that it's still illegal to pay someone to vote, full stop. Does not matter if you're not telling them specifically who to vote for.
I didn't say anything about legality, that is my opinion
Then it's odd that you only mention that after I point it out.
Literally at no point in any of this comment chain have I mentioned legality
No, I did, and then you tried to correct me, and then realized you were still wrong so you pivoted to this.
Regardless, the federal government disagrees heavily with your assessment that it's fine to pay someone to vote. Hence why that's not what's actually happening here.
