@ostrich @malwaretech @jerry Agreed; but it would (assuming the replacement were more rational) remove the obstacles to doing so. @BibbleCo @malwaretech @jerry I don't think it'd go down the way you think it would. Text alone does not make a nation; the text is a representation of consensus. Attempting to remake the text, even with consensus, leads to protracted rebellion. The 13th and 14th Amendments and the Jim Crow era that followed them are evidence of that. @BibbleCo @malwaretech @jerry Any alteration to the constitution separate from a comprehensive strategy for systematic elimination of systems of white supremacy is the dog not knowing what to do after catching the mail truck. |
@BibbleCo @malwaretech @jerry The constitution isn't the problem, changing a piece of paper won't disrupt the entrenchment of white supremacist good ol boy networks.
