For some reason, white candidates all got asked questions like "what are the three branches of government?", while black would-be voters got "in what year did 'in God We Trust' first appear on US currency?". What a nutty coincidence!

FMguru posted:I recall another method - an oral civics exam, where the examiner could ask questions from a pre-made list. Half of them were easy basic questions, half of them were Final Jeopardy brainbusters, and the examiner got to pick which questions to ask. That's grade school level. When they really wanted to gently caress people they just asked poo poo like "how many bubbles are in the average bar of soap?"

And if it looks like a black person was gonna pass the test they could bring out the biggest gun - 'who invaded Spain in the 8th century?'

This is why most of those laws also had a literal Grandfather Clause. If records showed that your grandfather was eligible to vote (read: white) then you automagically were too, no need for this silly quiz. Also handy for those pesky immigrants.

My neighbor is petty boug too, but he's doing alright since he mostly services rich guys that work for Tyson's or Wal-Mart. They're doing just fine.

Honestly, it shocks me more that poor white people vote for the GOP in general than specifically Trump. Trump at least is trying to con them with word salads. The GOP straight out says they want to cut SS, medicaid, and medicare disability and I know a poo poo load of GOP voting white people that either need those to survive or prevent their elderly parents from being tossed into the street.

Personal interests are too subjective to assume that people value their material conditions over ideology. And besides, if we all voted in our material interests then the communist party would rule all 50 states.

also people tend to not guage how they're doing in absolute terms but I'm relative ones to other people they know. as long as the gop rockets some people straight to the bottom, their average voter only knocked down a peg or two might become relatively happier since their relative social position actually improved. increased inequality can increase happiness for some even if it makes things worse for most in objective material terms.
