Is it a common thing for Supreme Courts to cause this much trouble (not just in the US)? I feel like I've read about other countries having similar-ish troubles with their Supreme Courts clashing with the Executive/Legislative branches or just coming up with fucked up rulings that undermine the proper functioning of the government. I know we're supposed to have a government with checks and balances, but are Supreme Courts just completely antithetical to the idea of democracy?
