You need a way to prevent this from being corrupted. Conservatives would love to use this to prevent black folks from voting. They're single minded and will chip away at it for decades.

Perhaps honey pots? Set up fake meetings to discuss how to prevent "those people" from voting, and everyone who attends is barred from working in government for life.

Ideally, this would filter out most if not all of the support for those conservatives who's entire platform is based on lies and fear. MTG, Boebert, etc... They only exist as public figures because they went along with Qanon conspiracies.
