I’m sure one could argue back and forth all day long about the order (for example, Black men theoretically achieved universal suffrage before women, a Black man was elected President before a woman, etc.) but suffice to say that America is both incredibly sexist and incredibly racist.

Europe wants to join that conversation with some power moves.

By many metrics Europe is MASSIVELY more racist than the US. Mostly we underperform the US in sexism by purely neoliberal metrics so jury’s out there.

Yeah. I should really have said that by most measures Europe is massively more racist than the US.

The legacy of mass enslavement casts a long shadow though.

With the possible exception of John Adams, who was roundly ridiculed for LISTENING to his wife.

The daily mail is doing its best to bring British style racism to an American audience.

You forgot beer guzzling! A huge reason for the rebellion was because of the stamp tax on molasses which was used for brewing beer.

…and there was me thinking the American Constitution was based directly on the Magna Carta and the later British Bill Of Rights.
But then, everyone knows Americans won WW2 all on their on, and were the ones who also captured an Enigma machine from the Nazis and learned how to decode the Nazi codes.
/s, for anyone not paying attention.

This is key.
Just because a Right isn’t listed doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

So what?
They didn’t write the Amendments after the 10th, either.

Nothing ‘sacred’ about those words & they certainly weren’t divinely inspired.
As far as ‘inclusivity’ is concerned:
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
That’s the 9th Amendment.
So, when someone claims something isn’t allowed because ‘It’s not in the Constitution’, it is obvious they never read it… or understood it.
