Yes, I must be dogmatic, because I’m regurgitating talking points, providing unfalsifiable narratives that come directly from anti-democratic actors who want to discourage voting, and I don’t cite any sources or studies pointing to a problem that definitely exists and which we can tangibly prove after years of looking really hard. (slash s if you need it) I’d love for you to see the irony of all this, including the pull quote from the analysis I sent (US’s registration problems are one of the reasons its system is so mid!), crossed against your desire for a more convoluted registration system, or for you to have that “aha” moment when you recognize the accusation is a confession, but I think we’ve reached the end of this particular discourse, and so I send you back like a trout to the sad unfalsifiable mad waters of the internet that continue the proud paranoid style in American politics par excellence. adieu

Woof this is a historically bad take, but also a really good example of the impoverished imagination of current tech-bro determinism, the barely-concealed veil of “I’m too smart for y’all, I’m a genius, I can’t waste my time,” rather than curiosity about why stories (including all the fictions he unknowingly buys into) have been foundational to every culture for all time.

Two years ago I’d have no idea what any of this meant and now I feel I’m living it everyday

it’s funny, trump’s like “I’m going to be a dictator on day one and deport millions of people and in four years you’ll never have to vote again” and they’re like “Where’s the fascism in that?”
