…How? It’s made for the government not to take away rights. Like it’s bad, but it’s the bare minimum. It could be worse. There’s a 14th, 19th, first 10 amendments for a reason. I don’t like the US harming my privacy and the constitution, even though it takes a lot of effort to force, still prevents even more exploitation from happening…
No, it was made for the government not to take away the rights of rich property owners, slave owners, and traders. It took a couple centuries and a civil war to reform the Constitution to a somewhat reasonable state, and the Supreme Court keeps chipping away at every protection that has been applied to you and me. Law is class power.
The US Constitution is fucking stupid.
