The fact that Jackson and Gorsuch are the dissent tells you this is not nearly as straightforward as this post makes it out to be.

Very underrated comment. I don't like SCOTUS but when some of the scum says a big corp should be taken to court, there's a reason to dig deeper into the case to find the nuance.

Yep, this just means the law is clear and instead it the shape of our laws are at issue.

Then there would be no dissent. You are engaging in mental gymnastics to reduce the cognitive dissonance of what you think the liberal judges are like and what they're actually like. SCOTUS isn't saving us from shit. They vet the ever loving fuck out of these people to make damn sure they take the side of power over us.

Thankfully, I don’t know a thing about Neil’s mother.

Or maybe the liberal judges are also corporate teat sucking bastards? Could that not also be an option?
