meaning-in-context

Given the following sentence in the American Declaration of Independence:

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably
the same Object
evinces a design to reduce them under absolute
Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such
Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

I understand the sentence as a substantiation for the making of a new US government, however what does the particular highlighted phrase mean?

pursuing > seeking to attain

the same Object > the same goal or purpose
