More like "we should be helping people get IDs" but cute you ignored the "i think they should be free" for good boy internet points.
Seriously you think "black people can't get IDs" and instead of "we should help them get them" your first thought is to feel sorry for them and do nothing other than say "well we shouldn't have them for voting?" What's wrong with you? Again, they need IDs for more than just voting.
Frankly, if we did provide everyone with an ID like we should, what then would be your argument against it? Would it still be racist?
Wait, what? You've already started out with false statements, but let's continue:
When did I ever say that? What I was referring to was poor people that might have to decide between eating or paying for an ID. I never said that the poor people were black. That racist stuff was conjured up in your head. I'm actually offended by your assumption.
Again you're misunderstanding (or intentionally trolling) what I was actually saying. I was saying that your opinion that it's okay to charge people money to be able to vote was the antithesis of democracy. Everyone should be able to vote regardless of their socioeconomic status.
Again, I think your reading comprehension is amiss because we've been in agreement that ID should be free to all.
I would like to once again remind everyone that I never mentioned race once. I was referring to poor people that can't afford an ID. Someone else made it racial.
Ignored, dismissed, use whatever word you like idgaf.
If you didn't say it reread the thread, that's what we're talking about over here. Dudes are posting whole ass ACLU links that actually are pretty convincing, catch up junior.
Again you ignore or dismiss the "free" part. Are you intentionally doing that or is your memory about the quality of a goldfish's?
OH so NOW we all agree it should be free but I want to charge money? Get your fucking story straight you pompous ass.
Again catch up. But fine "if we did provide IDs like we should, would it still be classist?"
Fucking christ lmao. You ok?
