I read recently a comment that said “The only people who think favorably about SCOTUS are people who remember the Warren Court.”

Now I’m not that old, but I think there’s a lot of truth in that. SCOTUS got a lot of goodwill from the Warren Court for making progressive, popular, and legally sound rulings. Now people are surprised that under Roberts, the Court has returned to its more-often-than-not pro-business, pro-Christofascist, anti-everything-that-isn’t-rich-white-men leanings.
