I've heard of several cases in the USA where they combine unrelated things to mess with voters. Even this one is kinda related but school education plus internet censorship. Split that shit up and let the people vote for what they want.

Edit: it's a rider

"Several cases?" Lol

Virtually every bill that passes in Congress contains riders and typically only passes because of those riders.

I think I just had my worst American brain moment. Definitely assumed this was common everywhere and am in shock it’s not. Must be nice lol
