When it comes to the SC, both sides think the other is politicizing the court. Both sides think that their preferred judges are dispassionate and neutral when it comes to interpreting the law, while they believe that the other side allows their personal biases to effect their judgement. Both sides think that the other side is attempting to use the court to ram through what they want. Both sides think that the other side isn't playing fair. I could go on but you get the point.

You're quite correct, this forum is actually very left-leaning.
Also, identifying the issues with the current climate or the overall system by using the words "both sides" invalidates the argument for reasons that are unrelated to logic.
