Just to clarify, I’m not angry at Clarence getting assistance to go to Yale. Im angry at him pulling up the ladder after he made it up.

[Stoner710]

They’re saying that just to insult him. Also, no one cares about the Harlan Crow thing. Clarence Thomas is more qualified than any person on the Supreme Court setting right now to be on the Supreme Court than anyone else on the Supreme Court. Affirmative action is completely racist on so many different levels.
1 either you believe black and Latino people are too stupid to get into college and so you must discriminate against Asian students in order to get more black and Latino people in there because agents in score way higher on the SATs than any other race on this country and yet they are barred from places like Harvard and Yale, in Columbia, so that a black student who scored less on the SAT exam can take his place to be discriminating against Asian students. And you were going by people that you were too stupid so we must give you a hand out in order to get into college. This is where the woke ideology in the white supremacist neo-Nazi ideology come together.

2 this is also a common arguments, in which case it means for patrol racism until the end of Time. And that is racial inequalities of the past Have to be counteracted with racial inequalities now. So we must now discriminate against Asian students in order to favor, black, and Latinos. So white at some point in the future, we’re not going to have you discriminate against black and Latino students in favor of age and students say 20-30 years from now. And then 20 to 30 years from then we discriminate against Asians and Latino students in favor of white and black students and the cycle continues until the end of time or the end of United States.. that’s what the historical racism argument mandates that we continue to be racist and look at people on the basis of their race and ethnicity rather than how far they worked to get to where they are now. If you come from a lower community, you can put that on an essay and that will help you get into college but you can’t use race as an excuse.

I agree with what you wrote. But if you're using speech-to-text, can you at least spell-check it afterwards?

[OddBeMe]

He’s the laziest judge on the court. And the most corrupt, apparently.

[Stoner710]

@Jamie05rhs fair, I get going and don’t stop to edit and I use speech to text all the time

[Stoner710]

No laziest in Elena Kagan, and the most corrupt is John Roberts

[Jamie05rhs]

No problem, man.

[OddBeMe]

Which billionaire ferries them around the world?

[Stoner710]

Gates, Bazos Zuckerberg Steyer, Blumberg, George Soros, Klaus Schwab (who actually sounds like a Bond villain) the entire G seven Summit. Jack Dorsey need I continue. All billionaires all for left wing causes

Really the right doesn’t have many billionaires on our side we got Musk and Trump

[OddBeMe]

Please provide evidence of them showering cash onto the lib justices…I’ll wait.

[Stoner710]

“ Roberts is the richest of the Supreme Court justices, reporting between $9 million and $27 million in assets. That includes a waterfront cottage in Maine, located on an island accessible only by boat, which is valued at an estimated $250,000-$500,000 per year, and part of a cottage in Ireland, valued at less than $15,000.” www.cpapracticeadvisor.com/.../

Clarence Thomas felt affirmative action undermined his credit-ability as a great mind as everyone questions his credentials and abilities because of it.

Thomas Is frankly 100% right in that regard, still just reading his solid legal reasoning and honesty its easy to see why he's one of the best judges in the last 100 years.

[goaded]

He hated that people looked down on him because they thought it meant he wasn't as smart as the other students, but rather than educate people to understand that they were simply looking further afield for qualified students, he's burned the whole system down.

Leaving "legacies" (aka white affirmative action) in place.

[Juxtapose]

Really? How are whites being given extra help? Are you saying that black people cannot compete on an even playing field?

[goaded]

@Juxtapose It's not an even playing field if there's an advantage to having your ancestors going to a university because every generation you go back the student population was much whiter. I think I saw that 43% of Harvard students are legacies.

[Juxtapose]

You apply to the college, you qualify and fit what they want and then you get in. I can guarantee you that these liberal schools are not going to turn away black people.

If anything they have been practicing racism against whites and Asians for years. It's about time this bullshit stopped.

Merit over ideology.

[goaded]

@Juxtapose But it's parents over merit. Choose the right parents and it's easier to get into those schools.

[Juxtapose]

Then bring that up to the college. That's not an excuse for racism.

[goaded]

@Juxtapose Trying to undo a century or more of racism is not racism. "Accidentally" taking in more white students because they're related to the mostly white previous generation is. Of course, it's also more profitable, because they're the families with wealth.

[Juxtapose]

Dude if it's a school that values connections and wealth then that's the way it is. There are plenty of avenues in life that are closed to me because I do not have connections and wealth. But nobody fucking bitches on my behalf because my skin is white.

[Juxtapose]

Judging college admissions by race is fucking racist and nothing you can say to me will ever change that.

[Anonymous]

Sure they did. 🙄

And it’s totally not politically motivated to make this statement right after a landmark SCOTUS decision was made. Nope not politically motivated at all.

Funny how Yale never mentioned this before and somehow respected his decisions as an appointed Supreme Court Justice. He’s only been a judge for DECADES.

This is just Dems throwing shade. Nothing more.

Racists.

[Sasahara]

You are darn right.
Some leftists thinks that the only way to combat racism is flinging more racism back.

[Sasahara]

Are you asking if their confirmation is true or not, or are your "question" just a statement with a question mark behind it?

Maybe he would have gotten in anyway. Good on him for making America a bit less racist despite the racists who think non-white people needs special treatment to be equal. Equality is being treated as equals. Not his fault that some wants to be more equal than others. (As in feel they deserves special treatment.)

[Anonymous]

I'm for it. Colleges can no longer use race as a criteria for admissions of course this does mean the majority of college students in ivy league colleges will be Asians whereas before it was mostly Jews.

[OddBeMe]

Jews?

[Opinion Owner]

For instance Yale and harvard are 27%& 25% Jewish.
Based on the Harvard diversity statistics, 39.7 percent of Harvard University’s enrolled student population is white, 13.7 percent of the population is Asian, 9.46 percent of the population is Hispanic or Latino, 6.56 percent of the population is black or African American, 3.94 . So Jews are over represented in Harvard despite being only 1% of the population, White Christians are under represented despite being over 60% of the population and remember the scandal where Asian Americans are being turned away based on having a "boring" personality rather than test scores or diversity.

[OddBeMe]

So is that because of Jewish conspiracy or because white Christian’s suck ass?

[exitseven]

Clarence Thomas went to Yale so long ago tharmt nobody remembers how he got in. Somebody is telling a lie.

[Juxtapose]

I don't blame him, it's a bigotry of low expectations and such racist practices do not belong in the United States.

[Dargil]

Of course you can post receipts.
They're pissed because SCOTUS busted them.

[Sabretooth]

Meant to vote C. He's a vile piece of shit.

[OddBeMe]

Did I have that as an option? I should have.
