  1. Conservatives also have institutional biases that massively favor them and that should be considered when complaining about their progress vs what we want
  2. No. The law in theory exists to serve the people, the lawyer brained exist to serve the law, and can only happen in liberal law circles. their commitment to “well it was rightly decided but for a bad reason” is exactly the type of bullshit you expect from someone with lawyer brain. Accepting of conservative dogma (“substantive due process is bad!” Or accepting textualism or originalism as the only valid ways to interpret the constitution) buys into their framing of what the constitution is supposed to do, especially with regard to unenumerated rights but ultimately what these lawyer brained people refuse to consider is that these decisions are ideological not lawyerly. And their acceptance of “rightly decided for the wrong reasons” implicitly would credit a bad decision with “good” reasoning when that isn’t the point at all; the point should be “was this rightly decided?” And everything else is retconning conservative framing.
  3. It also doesn’t help that the side that legitimately wants to see reform in a more small d democratic way gave up all leverage by refusing to expand the court. hell I’d prefer reform written into the constitution but without the threat to power that falls on deaf ears on the right.
  4. This is true. Also if the legislature actually did things we wouldn’t have to rely on judicial fiat or executive action. but because all but the most basic functions of government or appointing judges requires 3/5 of senators (because reasons) to do anything this makes the executive to put square pegs in round holes and hope that actually qualified and sane judges to allow some form of democratic release (let alone give judges veto authority over literally everything)
  5. Kids are durable no need for the foam shit imo. Doesn’t apply to sharp corners and unsafe stuff like that. Just don’t make a big deal out of the falls and when they get older little trips and falls aren’t a big deal because you didn’t make a big deal of them before
  6. I’m not saying Justice’s should be murdered, just that depending on your state you can’t kill them after 6 weeks post judicial decision, but in other’s it can be up to the point of the rulings viability at roughly 20 weeks
  7. An actual good (not great or perfect) response from AG Garland of all ducking people
  8. Of all the things to be mad at Biden about the courts should not be one. He’s always been good on them
  9. Like most people bitching about “jUsT vOtE” aren’t the ones generally who have trouble with their states disenfranchisement
  10. The act of voting is what I’m talking about like I’m not aware of voting challenges everything up to that point ranges from comically easy to new deal effort to get registered let alone cast a ballot
  11. Worth noting that the right gave political cover to anti abortion terrorists over the past few decades and bill orieley painted a target on a few abortion providers
