Remember when the Chauvin jury were interviewed and featured in articles ahead of the trial? And they all swore up and down that they were impartial and not radically left wing? And then they deliberated for like an afternoon before convicting him of both intentional and unintentional murder? And then we found out that one of the jurors was a literal BLM activist?
My point is that leftists do not engage with our legal system in good faith. A judge authoring an editorial in support of a controversial policy would never be permitted to preside over a case involving that policy, but such a thing is allowed to happen because leftists “pinky swear” that their associations and past behavior will magically have no bearing on their duties. We’re operating on a large variety of honor systems with opponents who want us dead. It makes no sense.
The worst part, though? We still adhere to these honor systems even as liars, thieves, and criminals repeatedly kick our teeth in. Right wingers should be aggressively seeking jury duty while hiding their ideology and then nullify every possible pro-left decision.
The trouble with your recommendation is that traditionalists are constitutionally disabled when it comes to deception. The same personality traits that cause people to recognize the value of hierarchy cause us to love honesty and forthrightness.
The right needs to buckle down and respond to this attack in the appropriate, orderly, hierarchical, forthright manner. For examples, see Gaivs Ivlivs Caesar.

The argument (just imagine Ben Shapiro making this in his whiney voice) is that principles matter and they need to be universal or they are meaningless.
Which is correct but ultimately futile. Meaning it's a lose/lose scenario.
If only there were a 3rd way of only applying principles to those that share them and not others...

There's a balance between being better than them and fighting them. If you have a good heart, it should guide you.
