Originalism doesn't mean do not evolve. It means evolution of society must be reflected in law through the laws passed by legislature that is elected by citizenry and not by judges. It is a valid frame of view just like activism.

That's simply arguing for a civil law system, which makes activism vs originalism almost irrelevant since judge's decisions aren't precedential.
