The Supreme Court: RIP Literally Everything

[Melkerson]

@Huehuecoyotl

They’re were already angling that direction in the affirmative action case with the suggestion that the Courts are going to be extra vigilant about universities that seem to allow more black people than they should be doing.

So what are the courts going to do when Harvard is like nearly all Asians?

[Riverman]

Dont worry the over half of Harvard that gets in for sports, legacy, being rich, etc. still gets to do affirmative action for white people. The next generation of Kushner turds is obviously still getting in.

Colleges: Affirmative action allows us to correct an inherently unbalanced system.
SCOTUS: You can’t do that, that’s racial discrimination.
Colleges: OK, we’ll do a top 10% plan.
SCOTUS: But what about the inherently unbalanced system?

@goofyballer

SCOTUS wants to say “the way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race” or whatever, so schools are like fine, we’ll create this completely race-neutral criteria that accomplishes the same ends. And the conservative justices who throw their hands up like “welp, nothing you can do” when states pack all the black voters into one district because they claim they were actually looking at something else are like, “actually this ends up having the effect of letting less whites and Asians into the school, this is illegal”.

SCOTUS wants to say? They will say, and they will get away with it, and it will be the law of the land. And Democrats will say if you don’t like it, vote harder! And if you do vote harder, they won’t do a damn thing about it anyway.

Colleges: Affirmative action allows us to correct an inherently unbalanced system.
SCOTUS: Fuck off.
Colleges: OK, we’ll do a top 10% plan.
SCOTUS: Fuck off.

Fixed that.

Absolutely

[NotBruceZ]

Arguably, it doesn’t matter if they retire if Dems lose in 2024.

[anon38180840]

Good way to keep choice in the news, too.

[Riverman]

This is obviously correct but will never ever happen.

women live longer than men. especially men in scalia’s orbit

[mosdef]

Women live longer than men on average but there is no predictability on an individual level. At age 65 the standard deviation of an individual life expectancy is about 8 years vs a life expectancy of something like 21 to 23 years.

yeah i hear you, we should just remove any and all pillows from sotomayors house as a precaution.

[Riverman]

No legal standing for a judge to strike down a government budget

[simplicitus]

Tell it to the 5th Circuit.

[DrChesspain]

Is the Judge going to send out the monthly bills himself?

Then borrowers get into a dangerous place in future administrations.
