I love Parenti but his stanning for the Bill of Rights always has me like wtf. Like in his real history series he'll spend 30 minutes talking about how the Constitution was created by folks of power and privilege leveraging their privilege to cement the system to their benefit and then finishes up glowing for the Bill of Rights as if the advantage of the Bill of Rights isn't largely towards the benefit of those same people.
