It's becoming more and more obvious that major media will label anything critical of Biden or the Democrats as misinformation and attempt to suppress it.

@wjmaggos The wikipedia page you link says "all statements in the constitution must be interpreted based on the original understanding "at the time it was adopted"" Nothing in the constitution was originally meant to mean that women cannot serve on the court. The whole of article 3 is like one page. It's easy to read.

@wjmaggos I don't see anything in the constitution that says or even insinuates that a woman cannot be on the supreme court

@wjmaggos This is basically the federalist v anti-federalist argument. The federalists believed that so long as a government is representative of the people then that government won't become tyrannical whereas I agree with the anti-federalists in that a representative government can absolutely be tyrannical especially against groups and opinions in the minority. That's why the anti-federalists insisted no the addition of the Bill of Rights to the Constitution

@wjmaggos
