    To be fair, and that’s being very fair, it does end with “allowing involuntary servitude as a punishment for crime” and a case could be made for confusing wording.

      This is the ballot text, it’s not really confusing at all.

          I think it’s really just an obvious proof of the complete and total lack of reading comprehension that most citizens have here.

          But only as a punishment for a crime. Like the new felony theft of a toothbrush from the other proposition we have definitely passed. (Made what was previously misdemeanor theft into felony theft, and yes we still have a 3 strikes law to imprison you for life.)

          California is not some progressive bastion. It’s a conservative state that doesn’t bother the LGBTQ community.

            I keep telling people I think it’ll flip in our lifetime. Too many kids growing up without the faintest idea of how wealthy they are in the bay (and the valley/NorCal are conservative anyway). Unearned wealth directly leads to conservatives for a lot of people
