Carceral Conservatism

[four1298]

I'm proud to be one of the few to be the first to use the term "carceral conservatism." This new term is inspired by the term "carceral feminism." This new term is used to distinguish conservatives who support abolition and those who don't. Like carceral feminism, carceral conservatism is an oxymoron. Incarceration is incompatible with women's rights and conservative values. The opposite of carceral conservatism is abolition conservatism. One of the goals of abolition conservatism is to add abolition as a plank to the GOP platform. As Republicans, we are inspired by the Republicans of the past who opposed slavery (which still exists today). It's possible that by adopting a platform that includes abolition, the GOP is able to get more votes. Abolition may increase votes from Black men, one third of which are felons. By conservatism, I mean opposition to abortion and LGBT ideology

Yeah. I actually originally learned that slavery continues in the form of incarceration from Kanye. I thought everyone knew Kanye. (I DON'T support Kanye though...)

idk how the system is in America tbh but in principle, incarceration should be applied with, among other goals, reeducation in mind to reintroduce the criminal into society. However this is never done. Criminals should pay but they should be allowed a proper chance to reintegrate. Countless stories of criminals who couldn't fit back in and just kept being criminals. Sorta like vets coming home and couldn' fit back into civilians' society.
