It's somewhat ironic how much hate Alito gets on Atlas. His father drew congressional districts for New Jersey.
I'm not sure what the latter point has to do with, but it's not surprising. Personally, I cannot think of a single opinion on a point of major contention that I agree with. He votes the most like a partisan Republican of any of the current Justices. I've written before about my issues with him. In particular, I think he's by far the worst Justice when it comes to protecting the rights of criminal defendants. While he did concur in the judgement, he was alone in not joining the majority opinion in Riley v. California.
I'm not defending Alito; I don't much like him either. I'm simply saying that he must be something of a kindred spirit to some Atlasians who draw congressional districts in the Political Geography and Demographics section.
