3-3-3 implies left/center/right, but it’s more like left-center/far right/even more far right

I wouldn't even put Kagan as left center. She's our Souter.

That diagram seems to suggest Amy Coney Barrett is a centrist, which would be hilarious if it wasn’t tragic.

The worst decisions have been 6-3 for the most part, i.e. Dobbs.

Yeah, and these mathematical tools *expressly* are not in the business of evaluating positioning on any kind of "absolute" basis. I swear to god, a little learning is a dangerous thing... (especially with math, it seems?)

The median Nazi is a Nazi, not a centrist.

Their argument: 1. If right wing justices were dogmatic FedSoc acolytes, we would see decisions map neatly & consistently on single ideological dimension 2. We don’t see that pattern 3. Therefore ppl warning of SCOTUS extremism are just fearmongering 1 is false and even if true, 3 doesn’t follow

That's being generous. I would go for Center-Right, Far-Right, and Fascist.

The biggest issue with the court is that you are wasting 2 votes on the partisan line no matter what, no morals, nothing. The remaining 7 justices who actually have legal ethos are 4/3, where the 4 are very very right wing.
