How can SCOTUS just disregard Constitutional authority for the Executive and Legislative branches to review the Judicial? Negating checks and balance? Is this effectively like rewriting the Constitution? Trying to fathom what gives this a basis in reality

and recommended for all to read. Saving shelf space for books I'm hoping will come from your work
Yes, the threads can get convoluted.
This is why I rewrite, and often combine or expand the original threads into article form (no paywall).
I usually attach the article form of the thread at the end of the thread:

thread lays bare: psych behind cruelty in our current political ideology
But over time, similar to conservatism, Libertarianism has been perverted and weaponized to justify the implementation of policies that accept, if not endorse or create human suffering. Essentially, instead of Libertarianism being used as a shield,…21/

@rcbregman
The Right weaponizes Culture War issues to incite constituents into such an irrational emotional state that they vote for demagoguing candidates (who don't care about CW issues) that implement plutocratic financial policies. It's Culture War hysteria-induced financial masochism..

Excellent discussion with
@duty2warn
,
@fridayprof
, & psychologist John Scrovan about shame, and its antithetical: dignity.
This is why, for Trump, there is no "dignity" in a meritocratic process....only in the result: "winning"......by any means necessary.
Let's unpack...

A little unpack of this: requiring stimulation above other arguably important needs (your own or those of a collective) is a red flag for certain disorder. Differentially, this behavior is excessively attention-seeking, another potential hallmark of disorder.

Seriously, Biden's post debate rapid recovery begs explanation, an atypical disconnect. Mic settings plausibly didn't equalize JB's volume; CNN as a hostile environ? No conspiracy angle, just concrete analysis of multiple factors, didn't all add up

Browse 👇 up/down thread; learn "recency bias", more - consider why broad electorate behavior WILL NOT be rational
...moderates/independents, and even Republicans/Conservatives who are disgusted by Trump will be more likely to vote for him because of the perception that the country/world is in chaos.....
.....and the need for a "tough", "law and order" president.

Societal/individual environment combos produce more Stefaniks than Cheneys. Is personality fixed? Behavior is not, unless tied to static disorder (narcissism). Johnson is fluid. Always, early environment is key, but we could use enlightened measures to address the mess

Either way, they're doing what young people often do:
They are reflexively rebelling against authority....whoever happens to be in power at the moment: Biden
It's "unfair". But fairness is irrelevant.
And this chaos is exactly what can/will hand the election to Trump...

thread: another layer peeling away genesis of our toxic, divided nat'l psyche, recent historical perspective
It was at that point where the country really seemed to look inward for both competition, as well as an enemy. This is partly due to the fact that people often define themselves by their enemies (us vs. them), which not only results in a constant need to have/create an enemy…9/
