By that logic, I'm sure the disingenuous creator of the meme would be totally fine with Democrats appointing every justice from here on out. After all, as long as you call the judiciary impartial, it definitely is.

Because individuals have opinions, prejudices, and experiences that will always at least subconsciously influence their actions, regardless how impartial they are supposed to be, and regardless of how impartial they might want to be.

Next silly question please.

The whole issue is that judges don’t spawn out of nowhere, someone has to appoint them. Who does so? Well, in the US alone, I think there at some level every single method is being tried at the same time. Local judges are often elected, federal ones are appointed by the president, Supreme Court by the legislature.
