Comment on Independent MP to push for lowering of Australian voting age
nonentity@sh.itjust.works 3 days agoAge and competency aren’t mutually exclusive for weighting. I think age should be a mandatory erosion, but it can be offset with achievements such as academic study or public service.
Over time it diminishes, but slower for those with proven social engagement.

You had me until you said public servant. The public service, specifically Victorian, is just assholes pushing other down for their own benefit; once you’ve been in the public service long enough you become institutionalised and it shows on many many people.
