The previous commenter is technically correct— since slavery was already legal, the 13th simply carves out prison labor as an exception to the ban on slavery. And, as they pointed out, the legal distinction is important when it comes to individual states banning the practice of prison slave labor.
Probably not, given how they work, and that’s a good thing.
My first thought. Are they tongue-based? Maybe this guy is just very dedicated to getting his oral game on-point.
When I was younger, I certainly knew that the only way I’d go from good to awesome is with practice practice practice. It paid off.
Cool.
At this point, I wish there was a wiki for things that can rewire one’s brain. Ya know, beyond everyday experiences. This is hardly the only experience which does, and a database should be created of what can, how, why, etc.
Take a closer look at the 13th amendment. It’s not as awesome as you were taught in school.
It essentially legalizes slave labor in prisons. For everyone.

Like you could interrogate meat chunks.
The fight for freedom will never be over— because it is constantly redefined. It’s a goal, not a destination, and also how much we are enriched by the journey. Through all that we achieve, we strive for more. And through the achievement, we grow stronger, more. Greater.
So the work continues…
Ok, so, I can relate to your frustration, but to say that it’s the same it’s always been is both foolish and lacks important nuance.
Sure, classism has always been classism, but the way it operates (and, thus, the means to defeat it) constantly change. One must be nimble. Adroit.
The fight is far from over, and we must all remain adaptable.
Well, yes…
But I also hope she finds some diabolically genius way to foil him a la Real Genius. I wanna see lasers make a house explode full of popcorn!

The constitution is a living document. Any parts found to be “problematic” were designed to be updated. Garbage like the 2nd amendment - especially- was meant to be updated. And the 13th…
