Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has been imploring his colleagues for decades to gut a crucial part of the iconic Voting Rights Act that prohibits practices denying Blacks, Hispanics and other racial minorities an equal right to vote.
This Uncle Tom, Steven Candie, house n***** is a first degree motherf*cker
Every single value they claim to support is a hollow lie that exists for their own enrichment and power, and it's so starkly plain from every single policy they push when they have power I can't fathom how people don't see it. I especially cannot believe that even now we have people who cannot see it.
I feel like I'm in a world where 90% of people can't read and have never watched the news sometimes, because it's that blatantly obvious to me.
His early career arc is kind of bonkers. He was one of only a small handful of black law students at Yale, and graduated with honors. But he had trouble finding a job after graduation, because the racist mid-70's law partners thought he only got his law degree because of affirmative action. He ended up blaming Yale for giving him a worthless degree, when he wouldn't have gotten into Yale at all, no matter how talented he was, if it weren't for affirmative action.
If he had blamed the systemic racism in the profession instead, we might have had a very different Clarence Thomas.
Oh? How's Lebanon doing right now? Rule of law? Corruption? Press freedoms? Economy and unemployment? It must be all good there given how frequently you post about America.
American policies in the region are a big part of why Lebanon has issues. We at least don't pretend to be other than we are. America has become a laughing stock. Good luck in gulag.
