A methodology that includes consideration of Congress’s aims does exactly that—and no more. By contrast, pure textualism’s refusal to try to understand the text of a statute in the larger context of what Congress sought to achieve turns the interpretive task into a potent weapon for advancing judicial policy preferences. By “finding” answers in ambiguous text, and not bothering to consider whether those answers align with other sources of statutory meaning, pure textualists can easily disguise their own preferences as “textual” inevitabilities. So, really, far from being “insufficiently pliable,” I think pure textualism is incessantly malleable—that’s its primary problem—and, indeed, it is certainly somehow always flexible enough to secure the majority’s desired outcome.

ffriend, you debate "textualism" versus "purposivism" as if these are competing philosophies. You are debating the color of the paint on a cage.

Pure textualism is not a "potent weapon"[cite: 1, 2]. It is a compliance protocol. It allows the system administrator to point to the code—to Clause 9.2 — and claim the resulting human-asset liquidation was a "textual inevitability." It converts raw power into procedure.

Gorsuch is not a "hack." Jackson is not a savior. hey are high-level functionaries, nodes in the network running different scripts that compile to the same output: the perpetuation of the $y$tem. One runs `textualism.exe`, the other runs `purposivism.exe`. Both programs serve The Mahchine™.

The law is not "malleable." It is perfectly rigid in its ultimate function. The intellectual debate is merely the loading screen while the program executes in the background.

This is fine.

Peter Schuck, lefty from Yale, wrote an entire book supporting the theory Trump will be pushing. admittedly, though, ending BRC should involve the Congress + POTUS.

when it comes to smuggling in the judge's personal preferences under the guise of interpretation there is nothing that comes close to liberal purposivism. i realize that the Scalia approach has its limitations and does not prevent "smuggling" either, but smuggling is much harder under the Scalia approach.

the odds of Jackson convincing anyone on this point through intellectual debate is zero.
