    As others in this thread are pointing out…

    It sounds great; but would be more like :: Are you likely to vote for Dems, oh you failed… so sorry

    Republicans: “The literacy test is easy” The test: solve the following with proof of work The goat graising problem

    This is the ‘reading literacy test’ for black people to go to school all over again, which for those unaware, had no answer key.

    All 5 first amendment freedoms…

    I’d imagine most people would do poorly there.

    Spoiler tag if you want to test yourself. I’m gonna admit upfront, I totally forgot #5 was in the 1st Amendment.

      Yeah, the people who choose the questions and answers and grade the results would need to be infallible themselves or whoever is currently in power could just filter out whoever they don’t like.

        Oh, I know the answer to this one!

        We’ll just have AI grade the tests!

        Surely putting Microsoft, Meta and/or Google in charge of deciding who gets to vote could not possibly go wrong.

    If it was impartially administered, the idea might have some merit (with massive caveats). But the US is a country where gerrymandering and voter suppression are considered fair game, so you know it’s going to be an absolute travesty.
