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

This has been needed for at least 50 years. But one problem... States and the judicial will ignore it completely.

They think they are above the authority of SCOTUS decisions.

The SCOTUS unanimously does the right thing?

C’mon man.

That’s deflection.

We being set-up.

They just building a bit of cred, before they stick it to us big time.

Don’t be fooled.

The ongoing coup attempt is still going full bore, behind the scenes.

It sounds like the administration is done playing—they replaced Jackson with a MAGA clone.

Lol.

Just noticed that SCOTUS also ruled against the Mexican Government’s effort to sue Smith & Wesson (and others) for “gun violence” in Mexico.

In other news SCOTUS has ruled that one plus one equals two is not racist math.

Lol.

So, Affirmative Action is racism after all. It only took 61 years to figure that out.

So where does an entire generation of white men who have been denied earned promotions go to be made whole?

SCOTUS did not decide that Marlean Ames had been discriminated against.

Their ruling was that her attempt to prove that she had been discriminated against should be governed by the same rules as any other discrimination claim.

“Accordingly, we vacate the judgment below and remand for application of the proper prima facie standard”

It is being sent back down to be retried.
