It isn't fair that you're being downvoted but I get why. What a lot of people are failing to point out is that there shouldn't be anything wrong with Conservatives voting and participating in democracy because they're a minority. The reason why Conservatives always think they're being talked over and censored by the Left in basically every online space is because the Internet actually is fairly democratic in the way conversation happens. Conservatives think there's a lot more people that think like them then there actually are because their numbers are artificially inflated in the US. But the moment they step online, it becomes clear to everyone except them that their beliefs are extremely fringe and unusual. The actual issue is gerrymandering, voter suppression, and everything else the Right has done to disproportionately influence elections, policy and discourse. If the US voting system was fair and wasn't broken, then the nutjob extremists that want the US to go backwards into a racist, sexist, homophobic dystopia wouldn't have the numbers or voting power to achieve any of their goals. They'd be rightfully shunned and ignored. The answer isn't to try to limit votes from people we don't like. The answer is to fix the damn system so their votes hold as much value as they're actually worth (which is nothing).
