Authoritarians lose.
@Dusty Morgan I agree. But we need to get them to quit censoring.
Add it to the amendment.
@Schedrevka only jk rowling would do the smallest brain
Specifically the first amendment.
Good luck with that. I vote that after Google, Reddit, et al. decided to push Net Neutrality on the telecoms, we should push net neutrality on them.
Huh... Metal Gear...
Krazz its a meme

The principle of "Eye for a eye leaves everyone blind." applies here.
Everyone will end up suffering in the end.
**NANOMACHINES, SON.**
I think the only absolute amendments should be to stop governments from finding new ways to lord over us with absolute power and deny us our rights afforded to us by our founding fathers.
This type of amendment should be stone, can't be altered or changed, only added onto by the will of the people.
I would call this "Absolute Amendments and Bill of Rights"
You're not passing a constitutional amendment unless it's near unanimous with everyone.
My goal would be find amendments that is for the benefit of all citizens, not the government or corporate entities. Protects the rights of the citizens and their liberty to use those rights.
Sure. But it's *really, really* hard to pass a constitutional amendment.
I know it is hard... that is why it is great.
Make it extremely hard, so it is frustrating for the government to alter the amendment manipulatively.
Then we must take a steady and slow approach to any new amendment article.
Cover all basis and make sure no loopholes are in it.
Rushing is bad.
I think in time-span, the founding fathers took YEARS to draft up the constitution and bill of rights.
So many debates, talks, rough drafts, and going back to the drawing board.
I think in all honesty, what we lack is patience and wisdom today.
We tend to rush things through and forget the unintended consequences.
I think you're way under-thinking this.
In all honesty, it is something I been thinking about for years.
The founding father's amendments are actually very well written.
I think things are too bad, and we should make things more good. Why has no one done this yet?
Only thing is... they really haven't been able to predict the future.
That is it.
but in their defense who can
While the new amendments added after the founding fathers in the 1800 and up were RUSHED, leaving loopholes for exploitation and use by government or foreign individuals.
That is true... Aperture... that is why I can't blame them for that.
I absolutely admire our founding fathers.
I want to add to their legacy, not subtract from it. Basically add articles to amendments to update it to mirror today's times, but not rush like the amendments I mentioned.
I do struggle with the whole slave thing
