I’ve gotten the excuse to read both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution itself, out loud, with teenagers several times recently. Jefferson was a hypocrite and fuckwit that made money off of the back of child labor and raped the women he owned, but those words do have meaning. Any government calling itself the US that does not heed those words is not legitimate.

Yeah legitimacy is a thing so many people don't understand. And it's why they want to cloak their actions on official language and procedure. We would riot if they just disappeared people. So they make it seem like they aren't just doing that.
