minus-squareLeFantome@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 day agoPersonally I think it should be a requirement to be vetted by a country’s intelligence service in order to run for office. I am not saying that you cannot run or be voted in. You can run no matter what. I do think that the results of your screening should be public. Not the details, more just the thumbs up or down. People need to know the danger you are in.
minus-squareKichae@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 day agoI’ve had to get a criminal background check for most jobs I’ve ever had, a check that my employer gets to see before they decicde to hire me. Only seems fair that people running for office have something similar.
