      so you're saying that African Americans were wrong to push for equal civil rights when the majority was happy with Jim Crow laws, as expressed by who they voted into office ?https://twitter.com/willwilkinson/status/1174361721345073153 …

      This piece is primarily about democracy, not gun control. My claim is that a minority can't simply declare certain questions off the table of democratic deliberation, and try to enforce that declaration with threats.

      2/ the !@#-ing POINT OF AMERICA is that it's OK to immunize minority policy preferences from the scrutiny and authority of democratic majorities.https://twitter.com/willwilkinson/status/1174364111368609792 …

      Way too much right-wing discourse is about why it's OK to immunize minority policy preferences from the scrutiny and authority of democratic majorities. It's a rejection of the republican ideal of popular sovereignty, the idea that political authority needs public affirmation.

      3/ > Dogmatic claims about inviolable rights are implicitly claims about conditions for legitimate political authority So you're saying that Roe v Wade is NOT settled law and we can roll it back if we have a majority at either a federal or state level?https://twitter.com/willwilkinson/status/1174365408280928256 …

      Will Wilkinson  🌐Verified account @willwilkinson
      Dogmatic claims about inviolable rights are implicitly claims about the conditions for legitimate political authority and the proper scope of democratic decision-making. But people disagree about rights, and there needs to be space to peacefully negotiate those disagreements.

          Pounding the table and insisting that YOUR list of basic rights, and YOUR opinion about their shape, is definitive, that the conversation is closed, and if majorities try to legislate to the contrary, they'll have to have a conversation with your gun, is dangerously illiberal.

          There's always the traditional fedgov approach of "we don't really have authority to do this thing even by our standards so let's just staple it to federal highway funding"
