I agree. I am enjoying the show of national collapse in real time.
A loss of voting rights? That’s a low blow. We already can’t do literally like anything WITH voting, what more are they going to repress? At this point it’s just being cruel, even if they made everyone in the US vote, we’d probably solve nothing given the bourgeois parties, why do this?
Because they want free labor as permitted by the 13th amendment
Correct me if I misunderstand, but slavery is legal for prisoners, so I personally don’t quite understand why getting rid of voting rights would help? They are already locked up as slaves when they’re in prison and felons can’t vote anyways, so what would be the point of restricting voting rights for someone who already can’t vote legally as a felon? I’m not saying it’s false at all, but it seems repetitive is all
I think they just misphrased it. They probably meant that the prisoners won’t be able to vote because of the felony.
Ohhhhh ye that makes sense thx, that’s super fucked up. I go camping occasionally and luckily my state is a lot more grounded in reality(for the US that is) but I can’t imagine being processed and talking to a judge and explaining that I fell asleep. Literally that’s my crime. Being in a public place and resting
This also doesn’t mention that the debate about this bill cited Hitler.
Where?
The U.S empire is turning into Nazis faster than I thought.
I thought it said campaigning, and I thought “already?”
