I just want the life-time thing gone when it's advertised as 5 years or whatever.

Loss of the vote isn't a punishment, just a reality. Law abiding citizens should determine the shape and future of society, not criminals.

The problem is that our authoritarianism-loving leaders have a vested interest in making as many law-breakers as possible. Hate Speech laws can make every Freeper a criminal overnight. Don't be so eager to punish rule-breakers, because in our modern day Animal Farm, they will be us soon enough, whether we want to be or not.

That's great. I have no problems with that.

Just be honest about it and say it's a life sentence. Because it is.

And it is a punishment. Whatever you want to call it.

You say you view it as a normal punishment that goes with being a felon.

Be honest about it.
