Fuck the Constitution!
From birth we are taught to hold the American flag and the Constitution in high regard. We're told the stories about the founding of this country and look upon the men who had the courage to stand against tyranny with esteem. The truth is that the "tyranny" that those people fought against was far less tyrannical than we live today. As far back as 1867-1870, Lysander Spooner wrote " But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case it is unfit to exist ". Yet we hold onto the Constitution and the flag as a representation of what was rather than a what is. We dehumanize and look upon those who no longer believe in "what was" with vitriol.
We hold the constitution to be sacred because its given us our government over the last 225 years. Not everything we've done as a government has been constitutional, Jefferson making the Louisiana purchase was certainly unconstitutional, but its set the frame. Ignoring that is dne when someone has a different political point to make that is weakened by successful constitutional governance.
The ink wasn't even dry and Washington was mowing down those participating in the Whiskey Rebellion.
The State is a cancer. While the original cancer wasn't much of a bother, it grew and became more aggressive. That is what cancers do. Nobody advocates for limiting cancer. Remove it in its entirety and be free.
Spot on! Government by its very nature is about control.
govern + ment = control (of/the) mind ... mind control
