This has absolutely nothing to do with politics, right? Just because it dove-tails perfectly with the Leftist push to allow felons to vote has no bearing, right? Just a coincidence, right?
ENVIRONMENTALISTS SAY IMPRISONED FELONS SHOULD BE ABLE TO VOTE BECAUSE OF GLOBAL WARMING
Environmentalists joined the far-left campaign to give voting rights to incarcerated felons, arguing felon voting is crucial to fighting global warming.
“Until each and every one of them have their voting rights restored, the movement for climate justice — and every progressive cause — will be severely disadvantaged,†Sabelo Narasimhan, digital campaign manager for 350.org, wrote in an email to supporters sent Monday.
The group is now part of the effort, championed by Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, to allow millions of incarcerated felons to vote. Currently, only Maine and Vermont allow imprisoned felons to vote.
350.org is a far-left environmental group founded by activist Bill McKibben, a staunch Sanders supporter who once called former President Barack Obama a “climate denierâ€Â for allowing an oil company to explore for Arctic oil.
“An assault on our democracy and the right to vote directly affects how we address the current climate crisis. When people can’t vote, fossil fuel billionaires win,†Narasimhan wrote in the email. (snip)
Activists argue felon voting will somehow help “compel our elected officials to take real action on the climate crisis.â€
350.org isn’t some tiny group: it is, of course, pretty much the biggest Cult of Climastrology sect out there. The entire point is mean to increase the voting totals for Democrats.
Which is an interesting thing to consider: are Democrats really saying that convicted and incarcerated murderers, rapists, and child abusers, among others, hold the same political leanings as the Democratic Party?
