And instead we have judicial activists not respecting the court that they're on and the decisions that they have made, After lying under oath to get into the office.
This embracing of the people of the United States only having the right to do what is expressly written in the Constitution is pretty authoritarian, Especially when one of the major political parties believes the bill of rights are perks for white males.
It is crazy how chill you have become with high crimes and misdemeanors and lying judges. You have always been an authoritarian so that doesn't surprise me too much.
We are kind of putting a fork in liberty here though.
You're confusing activism with opinions you don't like. There's no right to abortion to be found in the Constitution, and the Court made the correct decision based on the rule of law.
I read the responses of Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett during their confirmation hearings. They stressed that it was precedent, and as Gorsuch said, that adds weight. In Roe's case, though, it was so egregiously bad that precedent alone wasn't enough to save it. As Alito pointed out in the opinion, there's precedent for overruling precedent.
Is this "authoritarian" in newspeak? State and federal governments have always passed laws regulating society, and state governments are specifically empowered to do so on health and moral matters. This isn't a libertarian paradise.
