"This 100% unnecessary thing we're doing, that just happens to make it so less blacks can vote in Georgia ... a state with a long and dark history of preventing its black citizens from voting ... is totally fair and not racist. Making people do unnecessary things is more important than ensuring your fellow
black citizen gets to participate in our democracy."
You know, I think I've heard this before:
"Anyone can read, and anyone who can't shouldn't be voting, so we'll just block any black voters from voting unless they pass this literacy test (which we'll just forget to give to white voters)".

Look, if you want to sway me with a logical argument, just provide evidence the above is false. Show me any neutral third-party party that says "yes we legitimately need voter IDs to protect our elections". Or show me any neutral party with evidence that blacks do have IDs at similar rates as whites. Or show me a credible historian who won't tell me Georgia's history is chock full of racist voter suppression laws.
