I appreciate your position, but lets be honest here.

Most felons are democrats.

So they should be disenfranchised and can be disenfranchised as the MF’s in Congress haven’t passed an amendment that would guarantee felons the vote.

The concept is to DESTROY the marxists.

Disenfranchising FELONS helps.

Question: why should this matter?
Sould justice be different because of political positions? Should we base how we treat jurisprudence upon the politics of the statistical-majority of a class of people? If so, how is that substantively different than the IRS's political targeting? (And how would you propose to keep it from being turned upon yourself?)

The only way that I can think of to ensure against the last is to ensure that Justice is blind — not looking at the the people and judging them based on their likelihood to cast a ballot a certain way.

So they should be disenfranchised and can be disenfranchised as the MF’s in Congress haven’t passed an amendment that would guarantee felons the vote.

But that doesn't make it right — as I said here:
does the serving of a sentence pay one's debt to society or not?

I would argue that if serving the sentence does not pay one's debt to society then it is the sentence that is in error.

The concept is to DESTROY the marxists.

How would embracing injustice do that?
Isn't it injustice that fuels our crony capitalistic system, where corruption and bribery are a-ok if it's an elite politician?

Disenfranchising FELONS helps.

I disagree — having felony-conviction as a disenfranchisement can be abused by making felonies incredibly easy to commit.
