The court was already packed with activist judges appointed under suspicious or hypocritical circumstances who then lied to Congress during their confirmations about their deference to precedent on a host of issues only to the engage in a massive power grab from Congress. Subsequent action to rebalance the court is not court packing.
Wake me up if you’ve heard this one before: A president/PM/etc. who would face massive consequences for his criminality if he were not president holds an entire country politically hostage by giving special extra rights to religious fundamentalists.
Why face consequences for behavior someone else noticed?

Yeah, I’ve already moved most of machines over to various Linux distro because of Windows bloat, spying, ads, etc. For the one windows box I keep, Ameliorated Windows 10 has been treating me pretty well as it seems to strip out most of the crap that keeps getting grafted on to drive shareholder value or whatever.

Surely engineers have devised ways to reduce pier pressure caused by the flow of water.

I know you were being metaphorical, but Tommy Tuberville nearly brings your scenario to life. It’d be hilarious if it wasn’t real life.
Purity-based movements that use hate as a weapon inevitably end in circular firing squads.
Yup. It’ll be Trump’s surrender tour.
And throughout the 1930s you had bootleggers and gangsters with Tommy guns terrorizing urban areas across America with gangland shootings and widespread abductions since they outgunned the police. What happened? The feds got bigger guns and passed gun control to get machine guns off the street. And this was actually possible back then because the NRA was still a legitimate civil society organization emphasizing responsible gun ownership and not yet a glorified marketing campaign for arms manufacturers.
The OPs question is basically a false premise born of forgetting history.
Cult people using the cult as an excuse/justification to behave like selfish assholes. A tale as old as time.
When are the rest of us going to get sick of this petulant bullshit?
