I disagree mainly for the Elon reasons. We want everyone's voices in government and excluding anyone's is a recipe for disaster (yes, I'm one of those crazies that even thinks prisoners should have the right to vote it's wild right). I think it's just that ASD voices are among those conspicuously missing from government and that's something worth working to change.

Prisoners are part of the state. They contribute and they consume. They should definetly have the right to vote.

Yet it's a common belief that they should lose the right to vote because crimes.

Common belief only in the US of A

Should depend on the kind of crime. Stealing a car doesn’t mean you’re not to be trusted to vote. Killing a public figure does, imo.

Might also have something to do with many of us burgers tending to have a really strong sense of justice. Pointed at right direction that's a powerful motivator to go against all perceived wrongs, in the autistic lacking self regulation way. Which can be quite extreme
