The odds that a bunch of dudes from 250 years ago just "got it right the first time" and that their opinions would be applicable to modern problems is fucking ridiculous.

Yes. Two centuries is a lot of time, especially in terms of technology. Looking at you, second amendment.

Nearly every American has a foreboding the country they love is losing its way

Part of America’s DNA is the idea that our problems are fixable. I’m still in that party of optimists. But I found Mazarr’s conclusions chilling. When countries begin to fail, he argues, “it is a negative-feedback loop, a poisonous synergy.” The energy that could reverse decline becomes sapped by mistrust and misinformation. Some people get so angry they want to burn the house down and start over.

Very important observation.
 
Originalism was a scam from the start, a foolproof methodology for conservatives to arrive at whatever judicial result matches their policy preferences: Cherry-pick a few quotes from the Federalist Papers, cite an obscure 1740 ordinance from the Virginia colony one of your clerks dug up, then claim that scripture leads us inexorably to only one outcome.

lol.

it's called valuing freedom and understanding how to read words that protect those freedoms from a document called the constitution.

look into this.

The Constitution has been amended many times. :palm:

They lived under monarchy; they understood the threat of big gov't, and that the threat of monarchy/socialist authoritarianism would always be present.

As Franklin said, a Republic if you can keep it

Our founding fathers were part of an era where Slavery was the norm, women were there for the fucking and cleaning only, AND ONLY WHITE MALE LANDOWNERS WERE ALLOWED TO VOTE OR HOLD PUBLIC OFFICE!

Let me just ask you- If Mitch McConnell showed up to work in a powdered face and wig, mentioning God in every sentence- do you think his fellow Republican Congressmen would make fun of him- or praise him?

A republic versus a monarchy. That was the question.
