I doubt they're actually at home, but it's a good first step.

    why do you think biden is suddenly gonna do something good, after 40 years of always doing the worst possible thing? it wouldnt surprise me in the least if he appointed some republican justices to promote bipartisanship or whatever the fuck. he has no incentive to help us.

    plus hes a catholic, he personally hates abortion (to the extent he can remember his own opinions anyway lol)

      Dude. Banning abortion is a purely Evangelical ideological program. No one else wants this. And this isn't just about abortion. Alito's opinion violates the principles of common law in a way that is so extreme I don't think most people without a legal background can really wrap there heads around it. You do not just overthrow fifty years of settled law because you have a personal crusade. Moreover, Alito has asserted that there are no rights except the rights specifically enumerated in the constitution, which throws out the very foundations of common law going all the way back to the Magna Carta. This is some an incredibly extremist act of legislating from the bench that it should be appalling and terrifying to any jurist who has any principles at all. It completely delegitimizes US law and opens up the overthrow of the entire US legal regime. No one except the specific Chuds chosen to execute this program are going to go along with it. The GOP Scotus justices were chosen because they're Christian Fascists first and have no other beliefs or principles. Anyone else would be horrified by this judgement and would never concur with it.

      Whatever else you can say about Lib lawyers, they believe in their system, and this utterly destroys their system to such an extent that it's hard to comprehend. People say this is opening up the possibility of overthrowing gay rights and shit, but this is actually overthrowing the right of women to have their own checking accounts, the right to any labor organizing at all, even the fucking right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty.

      Asserting that Biden would just blindly support this shows a profound lack of understanding of what the actual stakes are for Libs.

          I'm going to indulge you because I have lots of free time.

          Do you understand that there are different political factions with different goals and aims in the ruling class of America?
