Well I think my children are now much more likely with the same constitutionally protected freedoms I had.
I think if your side won we would be seeing govt doing the same type of garbage as twitter, facebook and google with respect to speech.
Regarding our ability to resist govt... you would already have outlawed everything but shotguns and you would be coming for those next.

Hardly. What you’ll get is ultra right wing activists. For example, there was a recent split case related to mail in ballots in Pennsylvania. Democrats claimed victory because it went back to the state court’s decision due to a split vote. But what you’re not drilling down on was in that case was the constitutional meaning of legislature.
See, the Supreme Court needs 4 Justices to approve a case for consideration before the court. Four conservative justices decided the constitutional meaning of legislature now means state legislatures as well as federal, which it obviously does not in the Pennsylvania case.
Now with Barrett you can expect a lot more of this nonsense. These guys aren’t “originalists” they’re activists and shills. It’s going to be massive imposition on the states from issues ranging from pollution to employee safety to property rights. You have no idea what is coming. But please don’t try to pretend that these conservatives have any “fidelity” to the constitution.
Scalia’s famously activist 2nd amendment opinions were the biggest crock of shit in constitutional history. We have unlimited dark money in politics due to conservatives and our government now recognizes corporations as people and you’re trying to tell me this is about jurisprudence. I’m sorry but you are naive as a baby born yesterday if you believe that.
