Aside from the fact that the 14th amendment is unconstitutional, but instead a legislative device for the conduct of the (unjust) civil war and reparations and reconstruction thereafter, and as such should be repealed (we do so in our reforms) – as usual, the text without the context is easily interpreted as other than it means. “All words are measurements recorded as measurements at the time of their writing.” We don’t get to put our fingers on the ‘legal activism scale’.

–“The primary purpose of this provision was to ensure the federal government’s commitment to repaying the debts incurred during the Civil War while simultaneously preventing the payment of any debts or claims associated with the Confederacy or slaveholders. By doing so, it helped to protect the financial stability of the United States and prevent any political or legal attempts to undermine the Union’s efforts during the Civil War.
In summary, Section 4 of the 14th Amendment aimed to reaffirm the legitimacy of the public debt incurred by the United States during the Civil War, deny any financial claims from the Confederacy or slaveholders, and strengthen the financial foundation of the country during the Reconstruction Era.”–
