I guess solving actual problems is too difficult.

Another source, that I will quote from: https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sends-letters-to-t...

> The Legislature, the letter notes, "did not include a grace period for updating credentials," and anyone operating a vehicle without a valid credential "may be subject to additional penalties."

> Under Kansas law, driving without a valid license is a class B misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine—though first-time offenders are more likely to face a citation and fine. A conviction, however, triggers an automatic 90-day license suspension. If a person drives during that suspension, they face a charge of driving on a suspended license, which carries a mandatory minimum of five days in jail.

And according to this: https://bsky.app/profile/esqueer.net/post/3mfqa4oynxk2p

> Because of the National driver register, since their licenses are suspended, trans folks cannot move to another state and get a new license until they remove the suspension on their existing Kansas license.

> They can't even escape this by moving to another state.

One would expect these kinds of things to happen in Afghanistan, but we have to update our priors. Leading figures in the current regime are openly idolatrous about Nazism¹, and for Paleoconservatism² anything will fly. Remember their slogans about "freedom"? They just mock it; but even that isn't original.

What an incredible waste of resources. But authoritarianism NEEDS an enemy of the people to self-justify its existence. I wonder who's next?

So concerning. Especially as this comes with increasing braying from the usual hounds of hell about voter fraud and insecure elections. Adding a bunch of new voter id requirements then cancelling a bunch of id's is exactly the sort of infernally damned aggression against democracy at large torment we expect from these monsters.

Even though so far it's only Elon defrauding elections! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47103123 https://newrepublic.com/post/206857/georgia-voter-fraud-elon...

If only they were migrants, this wouldn’t have happened. Vote with your feet people.

Deeply evil

It's like being mad that women can vote or that blacks can go to white schools, just time shifted. Why spend your life being mad about social progress that's going to happen whether you want it to or not? What's the value proposition? (I mean for the people buying it, not the people selling it.)
