Geez, I wonder what she'd have to say if she was still alive...🤔!

Honor what legacy? How tone deaf to post this with all thats happening.

tremendous woman♥️♥️♥️

I’m going to honor her by following her example of never retiring. Totally by choice, of course.

*love* the ACLU, but I’m sorry RBG nuked her reputation and everything she allegedly stood for when she refused to step down because she wanted to stay relevant. So much of the mess we have today is because of her.

She only cared about her, not the cause.

Ginsburg helped MAGA control the Supreme Court.

All y'all blaming Ruth for our current problems are disgusting. She is not responsible for this. Republicans used strategic delays to deny seat selections until they had their guy in office, then proceeded to select unqualified people that lied during hearings about their goals.

There’s plenty of blame to go around. But part of it is definitely hers.

Yeah she was a narcissistic nitwit who thought she was going to live forever. Why are lefties so freaking stupid and worship this airhead ? She cost the left a seat of the supreme Court. Grow the fuck up.

A demented old bat who couldn’t step down and wanted to die in office like a queen. I am sure it’s very hot where she is now.

❤️ She will always be one of my heroes.

She stayed on too long and gave us the Trump Supreme Court.

Good thing she didn't retire

Respect what RBG accomplished in her lifetime, however her ego set us back 50 years

If only she’d stepped down at an appropriate time…

We have the oldest written constitution in the world and because of that, it fucking sucks and we refuse to learn from other countries’ better ones

Ruth will FOREVER be remembered as the old crotch who did NOT give up her power and died in office, allowing Trump to steal the Supreme Court, and AMERICA.

Not a hero to me. But I understand how people cannot let go of childish feelings about RGB. She did break down metaphorical "walls" as a woman.

But failed when it really mattered! She knew she was sick unto death, and she had to know also that bitch McConnell would have never honored her request to have Biden name her replacement. That was just stupid on its head for even thinking that. But here we are. She failed when it truly mattered.

leoleif.bsky.social•1 day ago

All right, but USA's constitution is not a democratic one. With a democratic constitution USA would not find itself in the current situation. Good old 18th century constitution is nothing but a romantic historical pice of paper. Painful? Maybe, but true.

It’s hard to celebrate her legacy when she refused to retire and let Amy Coney Barrett take her seat. The 5-4 decisions coming down that dismantle our constitutional protections and transform the US into a fascist state are, in part, her responsibility.

It’s sad, but that is the reality. She failed

transmutedmala.bsky.social•1 day ago

Will senior leaders learn from her mistake, or will they insist on keeping their hands firmly gripped on the levers of power even as they die?

We need fighters, not egomaniacal fools. I’m tired of being bound in the trunk while boomer hubris drives us off a fucking cliff. And that’s RBGs legacy

morallybankruptusa.bsky.social•1 day ago

They never learn when they’re old. They only pass away and get out of the way that way.

If she had of retired when told. We would not be in this situation with the Supreme Court.

She should have resigned but her ego won and Trump got to select her replacement

mishmushky.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yep she fucked us

peaceablyassembled.bsky.social•6 hours ago

It's amazin how folks blame the good ones for the work of the bad ones..

Why say RBG fucked us when it was plainly, clearly mitch mcconnell & the gop who Obstructed Congress +8 yrs to create 100's of Judicial Br vacancies?

Was that the "efficacious management of our common affairs.."? (GW, 1796)

mishmushky.bsky.social•5 hours ago

It’s not just RGB, too many folks too old in Congress and SCOTUS. Just facts sorry.

peaceablyassembled.bsky.social•4 hours ago

ok, just facts
like
One's age is not an indictator of ones willingness to piss on their oath to uphold the US Constitution
tho..
it may affect volume & stream intensity

Fact is
if they're not intimately familiar w the criterion of our secular 3 co-equals Form
We may as well elect 4 yr olds

mishmushky.bsky.social•4 hours ago

Age has nothing to do with willingness to uphold this or that—that was not my point, but it seems to be yours. They’re so old they’re dying in office with consequences to us. GTFO and make way for younger people. Make it make sense friend.

No notes. America needed Obama to be strong and put down the southern rebellion. But here we are now. Too late.

cecillus.bsky.social•1 day ago

What also left our country forever changed is her failure to give up her seat when it was time.

magia76.bsky.social•1 day ago

I loved RBG, but she would have done us all a favor had she resigned during Obama's first year of his second term in office. He could have put in a younger Justice who actually believed in the Constitution, as RBG did This could have prevented at least one of the corrupt Trump appointees.
