So are they just trying to court opinion their way into a new Confederacy or something? Like the overriding theme of every ruling they've made in the past year is that they want to kill the federal government. To what end? Is SCOTUS secretly radical anti-imperilaists trying to destroy the US' social and legal cohesion from the inside out?

More like accidentally anti-imperialist. At this rate they are heading toward kicking off a new civil war. Libs suck but this is becoming too obvious to ignore.
Yeah Civil War 2: Cool Zone is going to be all militia and death squads. The standing military, assuming it doesn't dissolve entirely after nobody can afford to pay the rent to Lockheed and Raytheon, will exclusively be used to crush uppity urban centers.
idk there are a lot of people disillusioned in the military, as much as they dip into liberalism I think What A Hell Of A Way To Die and Lions Led By Donkeys are good examples of how many potential comrades we have there.

You might want to look at SCOTUS before the civil war. SCOTUS has always been a reactionary bulwark against good and popular legislation, the Warren Court that gave SCOTUS its good rep was an aberration that should have been completely nullified with Florida v. Gore in 2000.
True, but I more meant that it seems like they're trying to undo federal supremacy and revert the US back to an 18th, early 19th century version of itself where all the states bordered on being independent countries.
I think that's the goal, but the difference between now and then is that corporations are much more able to fill the power vacuum that that leaves. Expect to have planned economies run by Wal Mart and Google for the benefit of the billionaires while everything the government currently does except furnish a police and military fades away.

I'm skeptical we'll ever get another civil war with organized or coherent sides. I think balkanization along state lines is already happening, though.

given the size and budgets of the American repression aparatus, balkanizatation along three letter agency lines may also be possible.
i have unending faith in the liberals ability to ignore worsening material conditions past the moment they are lined up against the wall in minecraft
