    To be clear: the the current “foundationalist” supreme court have failed us and failed the common law system by reverting interpretation of laws back to the 1700s

      To be fair to the founding fathers the Supreme Court isn’t reverting to 1700s interpretations. It’s an activist court that is cherry picking the most conservative laws from our history and throwing in batshit insane things that go beyond even the limits of the founding fathers.

      The founding fathers were pieces of shit in a number of ways but the fuckers we have now are worse.
