Congratulations, you figured out that as a friend of free societies I am "biased" against small groups of inacountable and people that excert power of powpulations that cannot vote them out of office without a bloody revolution. This has been a bias I have worked to keep alive despite having been born into a life where I would be fine without cultivating it.

Calling this a "bias" isn't the flex you think it is and probably tells more about your own world view than about mine.

They aren't unaccountable. There are mechanisms and precedents for ignoring the results of the court and for the other branches to manipulate the composition of the court through normal (e.g. nominating and confirming appointees) and extraordinary processes (e.g. increasing or decreasing the size of the court).

As an admitted non-American, writing forcefully about a branch of our government that you don't understand, and essentially advocating for dramatic changes to our constitution to reign in this branch of government that you don't understand but do not like, it is transparently obvious you have some bias such that even ChatGPT can detect and characterize it.

Why are you so hung up about the word 'bias'? Just own it. Americans almost certainly criticize your country and its government.
