The demise of Chevron bodes ill for many things

The Chevron doctrine, which states that courts should defer to the administrative agencies that administer particular statutes in interpreting those statutes, is a fundamentally conservative doctrine that limits the power of the courts. After all, the administrative agencies have more expertise in the subject matter of particular statutes than the courts. Chevron is a recognition of the Dunning-Kruger effect before Dunning and Kruger. Its abrogation is a power grab by the courts that will lead to much judicial activism and legislating from the bench.

With Loper v. Raimondo, the conservative justices overturned the Chevron Doctrine and paved the way for an erosion of civil rights.
