Not over. As someone alive before Chevron precedent, before legal abortion, before many things being flipped back in time existed, I can say you can fight this war&win it. Again. &this time, people have sunk costs&reaped benefits where before it was theoretical. They will feel&resent the loss.
I don’t disagree. What eats at me is how the tools originally used to win those gains are being systematically weakened - stable precedent, voting rights and access, a relative belief in common reality, etc. - to create an immovable status quo in favor of one side.
The erosion of stable precedent cuts both ways, though. We're hitting the point where lower courts are starting to just say, "Fuck it, SCOTUS clearly doesn't care about precedent anyway."
If the sane Circuits start just ignoring them, there's no way they can hear and overturn all those cases.
