Wait, but bias is on part of the judge, not on part of people judging HIM.

100% of the population can think him biased, but he still wouldn't have to be.

Whether he is biased is in HIS application of the law, not someone's else's view.

I am totally confused.

"protect the institution from the perception of bias"

From the perception of bias?

I'd rather protect it from actual bias.

Which is never going to really happen as long as the politicians politicize the nomination process.

Yeah well, the news media has a bias that it wants implemented.

It sure does.

I'd rather have a fair judge that everyone thinks biased than the other way around.

Agreed.

Well, goodie gum drops.

Unfortunately, the left tends (and has really always tended) towards "win by any means necessary" for some time and has politicized the courts for decades.

And they'll fight over any ground they can.

So they're fighting to control the courts.

I am unsure what the negative outcome is from perceived court bias.

Unrest.

Much of it is is due to accepting equality of outcome.

I think it's actually deeper.

Equality of outcome was not even fair if I was the only one subject to it.

It is due to a belief in "caring for the weak" and being morally justified in everything.

If I did twice as much work than the year prior, I'd expect to get paid twice as much.

you know fellas

My pay does not even have to compare to anyone else's.

sometimes Donald Trump is not that great

"The right sees the left as wrong; the left sees the right as evil."

Equality of outcome is one of the most harebrained economic models you could choose.

It only sounds fair to a toddler.

As such the left believes it is the hero and will do anything it needs to win.

Equality of outcome for unequal work means that whoever worked harder got less per unit of time!

Actually, it doesn't even seem fair to toddlers. We have experiments proving toddlers hate equality of outcome.

It's only fair to statisticians, bureaucrats and academics

Who more or less control everything these days.

But, basic arithmetic is not the strong suite of so-called egalitarians.

Oh, and HR types and Union faithful.

Wait, so even toddlers don't like it?

Nope. They believe in something usually called "fairness" in the literature.

What are we doing to so-called adults to miswire their brains that badly then?

Which is closer to equal rewards for equal precieved effort.

Which is what most adults want too.
