Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I wonder which party is more favorable to enfranchising convicts

neither the republican or establishment democrats are interested in that

One is definitely more actively opposed

oh really? NYS is a blue state no? One of the bluest, as I have been told. Should have some decent legislation surrounding incarceration, right? You ever hear of securis? Do you know how much it costs to talk to an incarcerated individual over the phone and how much that company makes in profit price gouging incarcerated folks families?

Democrats allow this to happen.

In new york, they were making hand sanitizer for COVID with prison labor. Yea, big blue New York uses prison labor. Very left of them. I'm sure the democrats are really interested in rights for convicts.

So, because New York state uses prison labor, that means Republicans haven't been drastically more active in removing access to voting? That really the best you can do? No shit Democrats suck, hot take dude, they're still not as rabidly opposed to enfranchisement as Republicans.
