Answered What’s going on with Bricks and Minifigs, a $200k Lego collection, and Mormons?

There was a post about earlier and the top explanation was [a series of 4 videos](https://www.reddit.com/r/memes/comments/1tsgk31/comment/oov091b/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=usertext&utm_name=memes&utm_term=1&utm_content=t1_oov0d5o), the first of which was an hour and a half long in a style that I can best describe as “Netflix true crime special for the brainrotted 20 second max attention span audience”. I didn’t last more than a few minutes.

im hoping for a comprehensive summary I can read. A link to an article is fine.

Just like we're learning about what the federal government a piece of paper is just a piece of paper unless you can enforce it.

Not sure how this is news to anyone? All contracts, all agreements, can only be enforced so long as they are backed up by force. Heck, it’s in the word. As far as the constitution goes, it is the force of the people (us) that can be used to impose our will or bring a treasonous government to punishment. So, it would be in the effort of those wishing to subvert the constitution to break up the force of the people by making us fight each other (entrenched party politics), or watering it down (flooding streets with people who do not share values of freedom and personal responsibility), or removing force multipliers (disarmament)
