 The anti-federalists, the ones who were against the Constitution, like Patrick Henry, demanded the Bill of Rights (the first 10 amendments) before they would sign on. So the authoritarian feds appeased them to get their centralized power psyop through. Subsequent amendments (beyond the first 10 which you still failed to understand) are pretty much all focused on consolidating power, exactly as the anti-federalists warned.

 Stop telling me what I don't understand. 

I'm familiar with all of that and simply called you out on calling the Constitution a "psy-op" which is patently ridiculous. Of course there were different factions but the original idea was never to impinge on the rights of man but to recognize and honor them.
