>> It sounds like you think only wealthy property owners should have the right to vote... > Yes, or something like that.... > And we are at the tail end of it now when all these people not just vote, but can also make use of free speech... Do you also think it's a bad thing for people who aren't wealthy property owners to have free speech rights as well?

Free speech rights themselves is OK, but when they also vote - it becomes a problem. When free speech could only be made use of by relatively wealthy and well-educated classes - simply due to technology - universal suffrage wasn't that bad - because political thinking of common people was still guided by those wealthy and well-educated classes, and because they weren't (and aren't) very capable of critical thinking, they were "captive audience" of a sort and mostly taken along for a ride. But now when social media really gives usable "free speech" rights to everyone, these people live in the world where Deep State injects them with mind control chips, and White House is run by a sect of pedophiles and Trump is the only person who could save us from them... And this free speech made universal suffrage a real, and i believe unsolvable, problem. Maybe only solvable through a social collapse (like in 1991 Soviet Union) with a new state taking the territory of the previous one, voiding it, and creating a new regime with very limited suffrage.
