There's no "seeming": the current US Supreme Court is nakedly political.

Well, they're just people, so of course they are. Thankfully, there are folks representing both parties to keep it fair.
Thankfully??? Did I miss the /s at the end of that? Do you honestly believe it is fairly representing?

I am shocked, shocked I say, at discovering the US Supreme Court engages in politics! I got bad news for you friend: it always has been. That, or maybe you’re one of those knaves who thinks it’s only fair when your side gets to rule.
What part of my comment leads you to take away whatever is in your head? I just pointed out that SCOTUS is not a fair representation. You've clearly read somethings in between the lines or are confusing other threads.
I see this so often it gets old especially from a certain side of the aisle. If I make an intentionally contained and concise argument someone always seems to interpret it as if it was part of some larger point I'm making. I used to believe it was a tactic to draw you in. But more and more I believe it's reading comprehension and a good bit of built-in bias.

It is by definition representative and fair: Senators chosen by the people approved thier nomination to the court. You’re not this uninformed about how US politics work, are you?

I don't think you read his comment for comprehension. Whatever prompted your response does not follow from what the parent comment said.
