The court's new hyper-literal originalism is producing a weird jurisprudence in which some cases turn on two competing, highly subjective, highly-distilled, multi-century historical narratives. The narrative that gets 5 votes then becomes "Official U.S. History" for every similar case that follows.
That's fair for SCOTUS, but then lower courts are obliged to apply the new precedents in some sort of sensible way. Lower courts are required to take originalism seriously, no matter how little it deserves that respect.
