I think this is worrying too, but if I wouldn't say it's something that's happening "these days", I would've say it's something that is happening "still". These ideas have always been present in the USA and around the world. But specifically in the USA, it's one of the reasons states decide their own voting laws. Nowadays it's relatively small rules like early voting and vote by mail, but historically it allowed the states a lot of power to limit suffrage to their linking. Even after women and PoC were given the right to vote, there was poll taxes and literacy tests in some states [1][2].
