I hope people understand that what we are seeing is the systematic destruction of the civil war amendments by the Supreme Court, which are what made America and actual democracy and upon which all minority rights in the United States rely
Hindsight is 20/20, but I'm starting to think one of our issues is the pretense that we still operate under the 1787 constitution. the civil war represented the failure of that constitutional settlement, and any appeal to originalism that predates 1865 is an absurdity
