Jim Crow was bad because it targeted people in the basis of a characteristic that didn’t matter: skin color. That doesn’t mean that all restrictions on voting are bad. If the restriction is based on a characteristic that does matter, like intelligence, that’s completely different.

If you are a citizen, subject to the laws and the taxes, you should get a vote: no exceptions.

I am certain, because you use IQ as a metric for who you think should vote, that you are smart enough to puzzle out a steelman argument for my position.

Use that big brain of yours and try it, you might learn something about humanity (and humility)!

There’s lots of potential reasons. I’m trying to figure out which one you’re invoking?
