Brain fart. I'll remove it, since in that context it actually means the opposite of what I meant.
But here is what I meant: They'll pick one thing a state is doing that they don't like, and try to do away with the whole system and apply their rule at the federal level instead. It's the same sort of authoritarianism; if a state tries to go against them, they're Wrong™ and, what do you know, it's time to federally enshrine that issue.
But, yeah, given that list, I was accidentally saying the opposite of what I meant. Oops.
Abortion, racism, sexism, guns, federal powers/big government, gay marriage, and so much more.
EDIT: Replaced "state's rights" with "federal powers" in the list as it had actually meant the opposite of what I intended in context. Oops.
wait why is state's rights on the list?
