@djsumdog @matrix @sjw @freemo not everyone has a driver's license.
You can claim that it is not such a hard thing to do - but look at actual cases of these laws being overturned: https://www.pubintlaw.org/cases-and-projects/judge-rules-voter-id-law-unconstitutional/
> Judge Bernard McGinley’s order recognized that the law would have disenfranchised hundreds of thousands: “The overwhelming evidence reflects that there are hundreds of thousands of qualified voters who lack compliant ID.”
> When the law was originally passed by the state legislature, many touted it as a means for eliminating voter fraud. Throughout the course of trial, the state admitted that no such fraud exists.
> Requiring electors who lack complaint Photo ID (and thus have no driver’s license) go to a [Drivers License Center] that may not be in their county, and may be several miles away and unreachable by public transportation, is untenable. Compound that barrier by physical limitations, preventing certain electors from traveling or waiting in line, the DLC Location Requirement becomes insurmountable.

While I'm very strongly for voter ID requirements at the same time I do recognize the real reason people are against them, and its simple.. IDs cost money, time and effort to get. So the poor and homeless are less likely to be able to vote. This tends to effect minority communities more strongly than others.
The solution in my mind is simple. Make IDs free and offer better services for people to go through the hoops needed to obtain them, but doing away with vote IDs all together seems like the wrong way to go.
I agree though, letting people who are not citizens vote is not the motive in the least.

Should #furries be normalized?
@admin Actually, if the Retry Trump episode works for you, I bet just using the long URL instead would fix the problems
@Prodigal @Jojothegoodperson @11112011 @rasterman Some of us already figured it out:

@admin Haha! Well, it looks like Amazon AWS has a 25 GB free tier, so I might try that, depending on the information they demand of me upon signup.
Not my first choice by a long shot, but it should help.
@shivam_janus_bahuguna My nation's media is very partisan. The left-wing channels, websites, and newspapers (#CNN, #MSNBC, The Washington Post, New York Times, #Buzzfeed, etc.) are very, very, pessimistic and negative, blaming #Trump for any deaths in the #USA and often claiming that he's doing worse than any other nations. the conservative media (notably #FoxNews and the New York Post) are highly optimistic and opting to focus on the miserable failings of the Chinese government and promising scientific research in finding a quality #Coronavirus treatment.
I haven't seen many racist messages, save a few from the left, claiming doctors/the health care system in the #USA are racist, preferring to care for white patients over others.
I have heard some people on the #Fediverse attacking nations with open-border policies for letting in Muslims with very few questions asked, even during the #Coronavirus, but this complaint seems valid, if those nations are indeed conducting a double-standard for their sake.
"China-bashing" is a very reasonable response, so long as it's targeted at the cruel and inept government who gave us this mess, not the Chinese people in the nation suffering.
People of Mastodon, if you are not from India - how is your country's media covering the covid-19 crisis? Is your media indulging in blaming any particular community?
In India's case - the media is going on an overdrive to blame Muslims, with the usual China-bashing. The latter is being used to target North-East Indians, who have similar racial features.
