    Ah yes, the constitution that was famously changed to include such clauses as “no more slavery” and “civil rights for all” is just a slavemasters pack. You’re so clearly right and not just a contrarian fuckwit.

      "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, "

      “nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;”

      Aside from being incorrect in the details, the rules as written don’t matter as much as the rules as enforced. The US constitution is not producing good results for many people.

      Also trump isn’t eligible under the 14th amendment for the whole insurrection thing.
