@Snarfalarf@Father_McCarthy@Soupycloth /2 to make it so that there could be nonviolent way to resolve it, but that relied on all parties believing there were being treated fairly. This was only arguably possible then when society was more homogenous and as society diversified it makes it impossible
@Snarfalarf@Father_McCarthy@Soupycloth What I'm arguing is that everthing is subjective, ultimately there must be someone somewhere who's subjective interpretation is the final say, traditionally this has been whoever can force there interpretation on everyone else. In the Constitution an attempt was made/1
@Snarfalarf@Father_McCarthy@Soupycloth then good. Relying on it isn't viable to resolve issues today, even if the founding fathers were perfect. The fact that they're not means that were always going to be contradictions in there thinking.
@Snarfalarf@Father_McCarthy@Soupycloth I'm saying there is contradiction yes, I have no idea what was in Alexander Hamilton's head neither do you, in fact I find it disingenuous to try and argue the founding fathers intentions, we are so far removed from 18th century WASP society that trying is does more harm/1
@Snarfalarf@Father_McCarthy@Soupycloth You realize those two things are Contradictory right, either the court is the least powerful branch or it has final say on every government action and is the most powerful
@Snarfalarf@Father_McCarthy@Soupycloth Marbury vs Madison was decided by the Supreme court, a branch of government canโt give itself power the judicial branch was specifically meant to be the least powerful
@traaademark@FedMarrux@fpost729@ThePoliticalHQ No a referendum canโt override a state legislature Article IV section 4 says each state MUST have a republican form of government that portion of the MO constitution is federally Unconstitutional
