Democrats oppose every right that can be found specifically spelled out in the Constitution (free speech, free religious exercise, freedom of assembly, gun rights, due process, cruel and unusual punishment, state sovereignty), while treating everything that cannot be found mentioned or even implied anywhere in it as a legitimate right or federal power (abortion, homosexual marriage, racist preferential treatment for minorities at everyone else's expense, etc.) like it were some kind of sacred founding pillar of Western Civilization. Their entire identity seems to revolve around war on the Constitution. What other conclusion does a reasonable person reach with literally all the evidence pointing in this direction?

No. Republicans do all those things.
Wow, isn't this constructive?
You're clueless, Arminius.
The problem with the constitution is not the rights that it sought to protect.
It's the incredibly stupid form of government that it gave us.
That being said, our perspectives as to that which constitutes desirable "freedom" are totally incompatible.
No republic can survive with this much ideological incompatibility, and ours won't for much longer either.
Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Kris Kristofferson, 1969
You're forgetting the Fourteenth Amendment, Section 1:
Democrats stand for "Equal Protection under the Law" for ALL AmeriCANs!All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

This just in: Correctly identifying the stated positions of a party makes one "clueless."
1) You think you understand enlightened governance better than the Founders? No person with an IQ over 40 would put you in charge of a hot dog stand.
2) The kind of government it gave us only frustrates tyrants who don't get human nature or understand why government needs to be restrained.
(hint: that means you).
Yes, you want Democrats to be free to violate everyone's rights, and I want people to actually be free.
Democrats are the only people forcing that to happen. Thank your own treasonous party for that.

Democrats butcher the shit out of that part like they do every other, not that amendments "ratified" at the tip of a bayonet are legal or valid in the first place. Figures that the anti-Constitution party would pick the one blatantly illegal amendment to hold up as its example of the only part of the Constitution they don't oppose...and still get that wrong as well.
Democrats prove on a daily basis that there is no more committed enemy of equal protection under the law than them.
Might be time to lay down the crack pipe.
