    Does the constitution have somewhere in it where it says, “only the second amendment is real, ignore all other parts of this document”?

      Political power is enabled by the barrel of a gun; and the belief in said power.

      If either of these fail for a political institution, and no one with a gun restores it, then it simply no longer applies.

      If you want your constitution to matter, [censored by .world global rules]; I mean convince the people with guns that you’re right.

      The problem (and truth) in that statement is it’s a.) so fuckin simple to prove it wrong and 2.) why didn’t they just try?

      Biden and the Democrats are paid off too to act like they are in opposition to keep up this charade and sow division among the citizens

      neither party is funded by the citizens and both parties are being funded by elites

        Sow division? What would we have without them? Unity? Because I feel like we’re headed toward the unity of a single party state, and I prefer division.

          same thing we got now

          no women’s rights, mass deportations, ramping up fracking/gas production in the US, no raising the minimum wage, overfunded group of jackboots, no universal healthcare, high inflation especially on food/housing

          citizens are only here to slave for the elite and have been since the start because to participate in this “democracy” you need a membership at the country club and that is way too high for citizens to be able to play
