SCOTUS Just ruled "Reverse Discrimination" IS Discrimination 9-0
A rare UNANIMOUS ruling from the Supreme Court. Honestly, this should be obvious and never made it to the Supreme Court.
- June 5, 2025, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that “reverse discrimination” is discrimination, siding with Marlean Ames, who claimed she was denied a promotion and demoted at the Ohio Department of Youth Services for being straight.
- The ruling eliminates the “background circumstances” requirement in 20 states, ensuring majority groups like straight or white employees face the same evidentiary standard under Title VII.
- Justice Ketanji "Woman?" Brown Jackson wrote the opinion, a rare unanimous decision showing even liberal justices rejected the unfair double standard
- Trump’s America First push to end DEI policies—his 50% approval rating reflects support for fairness. DEI IS INSTITUTIONAL RACISM
- The establishment media, like MSNBC, downplay the ruling’s impact, of course, framing it as a narrow decision because you do not hate Fake News enough
What a novel concept, discrimination is discrimination.
Even the hardcore socialists can’t figure out convincing and good-sounding arguments that they feel don’t make them look like idiots.
I mean they like to advance their agendas but as highly intelligent socialists, they also really don’t want to feel like they are going to be viewed as morons by most people and make the butt of jokes.
📌👀
It is correct that SCOTUS did not rule for Adams to get her job.
What they DID rule was much, much more important than that. They ruled that, going forward, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 applied to white people.
No dissent? Bacche and its progeny are completely overturned? Hot diggidy.
Finally! Their moment of clarity happened!
Amen. This was a few pieces of candy thrown out as a distraction.
Affirmative action has been illegal, wrong and unconstitutional from the start.
Preferences in hiring, college admissions, contracting and promotions are wrong and unconstitutional.
DEI is another name for affirmative action.
No, they won't. This was a mechanism to throw out cases before they reached the jury. If some courts still try to use it to throw out cases, the lawyers for the other side will file appeals on that issue, and they will win. I practiced employment law for 25 years - in one of the jurisdictions that had this rule -- and this isn't the kind of change that cannot be hidden or overlooked.
This is a real win, and it matters.
This was a weird rule. It didn't say that discrimination against whites/males was legal -- it basically said you needed a bit more to prove it. In the vast majority of cases - for some rather technical legal reasons (I was an employment lawyer in a jurisdiction that followed this rule)- it never really became an issue. Also, because some sorts of racial/gender preferences were sort of tacitly permitted if they weren't too obvious, the rule survived.
But we knew even 15 years ago that the rule would one day be tossed. It just kind of flew below the radar. This is the most conservative SCOTUS since at least the 1930's, and they're doing some things that are long overdue. This case is a good example of that.
No. What did DEI hack hire Brown extract from weakling Barrett for her vote on this issue?
