Hell no. I'm just taking issue with the claim that SCOTUS is just "following the constitution". They are actually governed by whatever they say they're governed

Hell no. I'm just taking issue with the claim that SCOTUS is just "following the constitution". They are actually governed by whatever they say they're governed by. The Roberts Court loves to act they're "textualist" interpreters, but only when it benefits them. They claim stare decisis to avoid overturning precedent, but only if said precedent is something they agree with.
