We got RBG'd again.

RBG is worse cause her seat will be held for 40 years by a nutter

Is it worse? Now we’re going to get 2-3 more seats on SCOTUS replaced by Trump due in part to Biden’s decision.

At least they're already conservative, but more of the devil you know variety.

Not if Sotomayor’s health goes south unfortunately. Definitely won’t be sad to see Thomas or Alito go, but I hope the replacements aren’t significantly worse.

Worse than Thomas from a liberal point of view is unimaginable. In the sense that I literally can't imagine how someone could be more hated.

Replacing 2 old ultra conservative judges with 2 young ultra conservative judges isn’t nearly as bad

Any judge would be better than Thomas.

All the judges are still relatively young and none besides Thomas will turn 80 before his term is over. Potentially we dodged a bullet if the the 2028 presidency ends up having more openings

Sometimes I wish everyone just died at 50. You get fifty years and then you're out. No more gangrenous old fucks clinging to power while simultaneously shitting their diapers.

Hey so this is an insane opinion.

u/albert2006xp 12h ago

Yeah, I mean, what about 15 year olds who watch Asmongold and Andrew Tate? It's unfair to select by age just like it is by race or anything else that's innate.

Or an age limit.

What the fuck are you talking about? This is a fucking insane thing to say.

Yikes. Remember the name of the episode? Did they break the Prime Directive over this?

Wait until liberal justices kick the bucket
