Clarence Thomas, to Washington Post, is ‘White’ thinker
The Washington Times ^ | Friday, February 18, 2022 | Cheryl K. Chumley

The Washington Post just put out a “clarification” about a report within its own pages that referred to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas as someone “whose rulings often resemble the thinking of White conservatives.”

As opposed to — what?

This is so illuminating, in so many ways, about the oh, so inherent racist and elitist tendencies of those on the left.

The paper didn’t apologize for the blatant stereotype but rather issued a “clarification” that went like this: “A previous version of this story [about SCOTUS nominations] imprecisely referred to Justice Clarence Thomas’s opinions as often reflecting the thinking of White conservatives, rather than conservatives broadly. That reference has been removed,” Mediaite reported.

In other words: See no evil, be no evil.

But too late; the damage has been done.

The left is always criticizing Black conservatives for the crime of being both Black and conservative. In Democrats’ minds, the two don’t mix.

“I don’t really care if we’re colorblind, but I would like to get to the place that when you see somebody who is Black, you don’t have preconceived notions of what they’re capable of, who they are — by the way, what they think, which is I think a problem of the left,” Condoleezza Rice said in a 2020 interview with The New York Times.

“You look at somebody who’s Black and you think you know what they think, or you at least think you know what they ought to think,” Rice said.

Too true.

Washington Post to Clarence Thomas:

You’re not black if you think like a republican.

If you think like a republican, you must be racist.

If you think like a republican, you betrayed your reservation.

Then apparently “black thinking” is good?

Tell me, how does that square with the mountains of evidence from “urban centers”?

So, the Washington Post thinks that Black people only know what to think when White people instruct them?

That’s racist and insulting. We have - and have always had - lots of brilliant Black conservatives. Most of them put today’s White Post writers to shame.

(Even my birds in their cages are protesting having to sit on and sh!t on the Post.)

Because "black thinkers" want to burn it all down, and "white thinkers" want to keep it intact?

Clarence Thomas is virtuous, that is why they call him white.

The “whiteness” they fear is virtue because they are evil.

That’s why “multi racial white supremacy” is a concept to them.

“whose rulings often resemble the thinking of White conservatives.”

Makes as much sense as saying when other justices rule the same way as him they are thinking as a "Black conservative"

These comments from the post, are of course, as racist as racist can be. Constitutional opinions do not have a "race" nor racial "thinking" - racist, hateful, not to mention stupid of the Post to suggest this.

John Shaft : Warms my black heart to see you so concerned about us minority folks.

Vic Androzzi : Oh come on Shaft, what is it with this black shit, huh?

[Vic holds a black pen up to Shaft’s face]

Vic Androzzi : You ain’t so black.

John Shaft : [Holds a white coffee cup next to Vic’s face] And you ain’t so white either baby.

Having lived in the DC region for a couple of years, if you went out and surveyed locals on which newspaper they read. The black community would only make up around 1-percent of the readership of the WaPo. Even nationally, I doubt if any blacks or Hispanics read their ‘brand’.

He should sue for harassment.

Only He can determine what He is, or feels like, on any given day. The libtards ought to realize by their own logic
and teaching they can’t presume anything about someone, much less tell someone what they are, or are not are.

so what they are really telling us is if you dont agree or think like us you are racist no matter who or what you are, so color doesn’t matter when it comes to racism.
