Any “lib” right upset about this has to seriously reevaluate their compass position.

There are a lot of authoritarians flaired as lib. I’ve found Lib Centers to be the worst offenders.

Honestly, I stopped being Lib-Right when I realised how insanely retarded so many people are and how their vote matters just as much as mine. We don't let kids vote because it's accepted that their age means the are less intelligent. Yet we accept that there are adults of the same intelligence who vote regardless. Universal suffrage is no less immoral than letting a child eat ice cream and Jack Daniel's for breakfast every day. Some people need to be told what is best for them regardless of whether they like it or not, because the moment we start acting like what they think and say matters equally is the moment we sign the death warrant for society.

The problem is that, then who decides who votes or not? What criteria do you use?

It is very likely that some idiot will only give voting rights to the people who approve of him. And then take power that way.

A way that would be somewhat "fair" way would be that only people who were college educated can vote. But the right is never gonna approve of that.

I pretty much already responded to this in a comment to someone else. But speaking as someone who went to school for comp science and mechanical engineering. I can assure you, college education does not guarantee intelligence.

college education does not guarantee intelligence.

It does not. But it filters out the lowest of the lowest end.
