oh noes, social media makes it "really hard to govern today!"
when the government starts talking about how “difficult” or “awkward” the bill of rights makes governing, there is only one answer:good.that’s quite literally the point. that’s quite literally the genius of the form of republic imagined and enshrined by our framers.the individual stands paramount to the state. our rights, derived from and imbued by our personhood not from some proffered license from leviathan, stand paramount to the state. and if that makes it impossible for the state to do some thing that it wants to do?tough noogies.that’s almost certainly a sign that it’s something the state should never have been contemplating in the first place.
