11. Political actors is a "soft" way of identifying those 6 republicans SC justices as the partisan political hacks they are

They've destroyed any shred of ethics, honor, and integrity that the Supreme Court had.
It's not a matter of "unpopular decisions", it's a matter of destroying the ability of American Citizens to get fair treatment in regards to the most important rights we hold as as nation.
Voting rights trashed, civil rights trashed, women's reproductive rights trashed!
Theirs is a deliberate destruction of that which makes this nation truly great.
The Supreme Court has no interest in the constitution, or the rule of law. They see America as a nation where White makes right. And, even within that perverted concept, they further narrow their definition to White Male makes right.

They have done everything they can to debauch the reputation of the Supreme Court as an honorable institution. And Chief Justice Roberts has the nerve to complain about how the public sees the Court!
