Living in the Hate of the Common People
20th December 2020
Someone at a social media site, who I will not dignify with a link, wrote, “I think we need to find a way to stop the working class from voting altogether.”
This individual, who is in the UK and is obviously a furious anti-Brexiter, also wrote: “Idiots and racists shouldn’t be able to ruin the lives of people who do well in life by voting for things they don’t understand. The problem in this country boils down to low information morons having the ability to vote.”
Actually, I think the country would be better off if everybody who had a college degree was barred from voting. The available evidence suggests that they are a major contingent of the ‘low information morons’ demographic, and include quite a number of idiots and racists (although not in the sense that the commenter intended).
