Yeah, that's not what I said.

People are too fucking dumb [and] there's no end to grifters taking advantage of that

Maybe not, but these statements are directly applicable to voters and I think voting in an environment where bad actors can easily manipulate voters is irresponsible.

Do you not agree?

Who decides who is allowed to vote?

Quis custodiat ipsos custodes?

Everyone gets to vote or no one.

You can see in one of my other comments that i disagree with that statement.

Also, you didn't answer my question.

I did answer your question.

Everyone has a vote (democracy) or no one has a vote (dictatorship because the flawed system where you exclude certain voters always ends up like that).
