Republicans don’t hate the idea of Americans voting. Quite the opposite.

They think they are protecting the system of Americans voting.

If you don’t understand the enemy and how they think you can’t properly counter them.

that comes across as a nutty conspiracy theory like the faking of the moon landing.

Oh those conservatives, they’re all in on it. All of them know that they’re all telling this lie, and yet weirdly even though so many of them are so utterly stupid, it’s weird how the conspiracy theory hasn’t been revealed by any of the millions of conservatives who all buy into the proposal.

No, that’s just silly. Millions of conservatives expressing the same viewpoint, and yet none of them have slipped up and told us about the organized effort to hide their thinking?

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. Sometimes there is no conspiracy theory. Sometimes a political orientation is just being honest about what they believe, about their thinking.

Occam’s razor would suggest that we maybe take them at their word especially when it just makes plenty of sense.

Right, and they say they are protecting the voting system.

Again I agree, it seems that they do know exactly what they are doing and why, and all indications are it is to protect the voting system.

You can point to the rank and file, you can point to the lawyers, you can point to the judges, you can point to your favorite sandwich maker at your favorite sandwich shop, whatever, yeah, they do seem to be proceeding with the motivation of protecting the voting system.

Everything else comes across as a strawman argument.
