fuck the founding fathers
No, fuck the people that take the founding fathers as infallible - when it suits their argument. The FF did what they did, and at the time it was groundbreaking, but they didn't count on populist stupidity taking what they wrote and amplifying the worst parts of it ad nauseam.
And DEFINITELY couldn't have predicted the route modern technology would take us
They'd have thought it was sweet as fuck until they realized we knew disaster was coming and did fuck all to stop it.
Not even the things that would still make us money.
I think they call that necrophilia and is generally frowned upon

Theocratic oligarchies suck, deal with it
