The Arguments section is unfortunately left out on actual ballots. I could see a lot of the less research-inclined citizens interpret that as simple community service and not straight up indentured servitude.
Unfortunately, most things can be attributed to stupidity rather than malice. Had they put the word slavery on the ballots I’d hope we’d see a better split
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
This is the ballot text, it’s not really confusing at all.

I especially enjoy it losing with literally no opponents and no arguments against.
Right?
Fucking right?
Oh wow, that’s actually explained very well. Fair enough, y’all just want slavery I guess lol
I think it’s really just an obvious proof of the complete and total lack of reading comprehension that most citizens have here.
