Anyone else remember a few years ago when the government was caught performing warrantless searches on America's phone data and metadata, using direct wiretaps at the phone companies, and it was a huge deal and the whistleblower had to flea the country or face imprisonment? And we all said at that time that the government's actions were shocking and they had to stop right away, and at first they said they would, but then they never really did?
Yeah, me neither.
RIP, the Constitution. We'll miss you.
Eh, if the constitution was half as great as people think, we wouldn't have the problems we do now.
And don't forget, without the flaws of the constitution, us couldn't have give full fascist so early and quickly.
Fuck the constitution, we need something better.
