Not to say the Supreme Court isn’t partisan, but I don’t think it’s as partisan as people make it out to be. Reading Supreme Court decisions, the vast majority of the time the arguments of each Justice make a lot of sense, even the ones I disagree with. There are obvious exceptions of course (looking at you Thomas and Alito), but for the most part I think the Court makes conservative decisions because the Justices happen to have more conservative legal reasoning, rather than the Court making conservative decisions because they are being conservative activists.
I’m not a lawyer though so take what I say with a grain of salt. Maybe I’m just not reading between the lines well enough. Come back to me when I inevitably decide to have a midlife crisis and go to law school in my 30s.

You’re telling me someone named “Mom Dommy” is running for mayor of New York, and you expect me to believe you?
> [Business groups also spent enormous amounts of money attacking us. That includes groups like the Master Builders Association representing the property industry, as well as peak mining, oil, and gas groups like the Australian Energy Producers. Basically, the largest sections of Australian capital in housing, finance, and mining — as well as both major parties and right-wing lobby groups — all came after us, spending tens of millions of dollars. And they did so with a high degree of coordination, targeting resources at the same seats, adopting almost identical policy positions and at times even using identical language.](https://jacobin.com/2025/06/australia-greens-electoral-politics-left)
