I have another question, is being on SCOTUS a part time job?
post
I can already teach his class for him. Here is how civil rights work, courtesy of Clarence Thomas:
- Get invited to the supreme court.
- You get to decide what civil rights are, and what they aren't.
- Make them up as you go, however you please.
That's clearly what he's learned from his own experiences, it would be dishonest for him to teach anything else.
You forgot "Receive bribes".
Bill Clinton to teach about Monogamy at University of Arkansas
Donald Trump to teach ethics
Floyd Mayweather to teach literature
RFK Jr and Kid Rock will be hosting AA and Narcotics Annon meetings.
Elon will be teaching economics.
Steven and Katie Miller start teaching compassion and empathy classes
Pete Hegseth will teach leadership classes (haha this one is probably already real)
Kash Patel will teach a course in standing up to authoritarian figures who you admire to an alarmingly sychophantic degree
Alex Jones becomes a professor in unbiased critical thinking
Steven Seagal to teach martial arts
I mean he was teaching Aikido the way they commonly do, it may smell like bullshido but it's still a recognized martial art AFAIK, he just looks ridiculous doing it for the last 20 years because of how lazy, sloppy, and out of shape everything about him is.
A better Steven Seagal example would be: Steven Seagal successfully being a badass in front of beloved old championship judo instructor (and then pooping himself)
But a better overall example is Jake Paul becoming a true WBA boxer, in Anthony Joshua's weight class.

Jesus, I don't think I've ever seen this picture, just read descriptions of it. Looking at it now, it's like one of his eyes is looking in fear and the other eye is confusedly looking for the source of that ringing sound.
I also heard that he got his jaw broken. Looking at that defensive stance, head position, and open mouth, I'm gonna guess this picture is .5 seconds before mouth go crack?
A legitimate study would be hilarious. Slap fight techniques, avoiding stairs, waddling fatly around corners, flinch shooting, the importance of mid plot stripper breaks, etc.
Well he would be an expert, he's helped take away most of them.
Uncle Tom’s Introduction to Civil Rights (and how to keep uppity black folk in line)
Is he going to talk about the friends he turned in to the FBI when he pretended he was fighting for Civil Rights?
Wouldn't he be better suited for courses like "Civil Wrongs" or "Corruption 101"?
I fully expect his lesson plan to include calling MLK Jr. the n-word along with a song and dance number about how segregation was "Kinda based actually."
I hope every student hits him with the hard ball questions that he's never had to actually face in his comfy little ivory tower. Repeatedly remind him he's a piece of shit hypocrite.
There should be some Harriet Beecher Stowe on the syllabus — I’d love to hear Clarence Thomas teach Uncle Tom’s Cabin.
How will he teach civil rights? We're not allowed to talk about anything that might make white people feel bad. How does one teach about the 19th amendment without discussing gender?
"Well you see children, slavery wasn't all that bad. It gave my great grandparents the life skills needed so that I could one day betray my oaths for lavish gifts sit on the supreme Court.
"And as we can learn from MLK, all you have to do to create change is peacefully protest. That's the entire method, nothing else to it. And let's not forget about how later in his life, he started learning about socialism and his head exploded. Right there on stage, his head just did that. All because of socialism"
Where of course he'll stand firmly on the "opposed" side of the discussion, as he has in his time as a justice
Clarence Thomas is a Peter-Principled mediocrity who convinced himself that going to Yale somehow closed more doors than it opened for him, and ironically he let that bitterness turn him from a promising, if rigid, attorney into the exact kind of token he feared people saw him as. We are therefore subject to a naive and inflexible judicial philosophy that somehow always breaks in favor of whatever nonsense the Republican party wants, and he's so scarred by his own self-defeating choices that he sees no issue in running a grift to get the money he thinks he deserves.
He wasn't born to be a monster, but he sure made himself one. He'd be a tragic figure if he weren't fucking over the entire country in real life.
The good news is this is just a side hustle. I thought for a second he was going to retire and the beaten Republicans were going to replace him with one of Trump's Press Secretaries. The last one that claimed to be a lawyer despite never passing the bar, maybe?
You need to be a civil right expert if you want to efficiently violate so many of them during your career.
Class syllabus:
Week 1: "Get paid up front"
Rest of the weeks: Call in sick
Final Project: Write 5 pages on why it's OK to bribe people under Citizens United
And Trump will teach ethics?
It's desecrating to their memory to have this piece of shit mention them at all.
It truly is. I note James Baldwin is not mentioned; for myself I would not like to be on the receiving end of his pen's ire. His essays are utterly searing and if he were still with us he'd write something so brilliantly well-aimed at this lazy hypocrisy that Thomas would never crawl out of his motorhome ever again.
This man brings nothing but shame to the greats who went before him, and they'd all readily eat his lunch. When it comes to actual experience, logic, reason, and wit, Thomas comes to the discourse of civil rights with full pockets and empty hands.
I'd assumed it'd be a seminar on RV law
Hey, at least he's doing honest work to supplement his salary this time.
Roberts wants the Court to be seen as nonpartisan, so he's instructed the conservative Justices to take bribes from Democrats too.
~~"University of Texas" is an idiom ~~
dangit. I fucked that up. I meant oxymoron.
UT Austin is in the top 10 public universities in the nation.
Plus, Austin is that tiny bit of sanity in that deplorable state. If Texas ever secedes, we're gonna have to run an airlift of "weird" into it regularly to keep it well supplied.
UT Austin had its board of regents replaced with Greg Abbott supporters by, Greg Abbott.
Abbott is out next year, so it will be interesting to see if this changes anything starting in 2027 when at least three of them are up for re-appointment.

The actual title if the course is CIV-666 Civil Rights of Billionaires for the Uncle Tom.

Why is our world like this now. This is not how things are supposed to be.
I would like to refer to the ancient adage of "Skinfolk ain't always kinfolk". I would like to submit this picture in particular as the photograph in its dictionary entry. All in favor?
how to put your pubes on your coke can, to Sexually harrass one of your interns no doubt. and also to hate people of your own race/demographic/"left" for not supporting your poor career path or lack therof.
Man, I sure hope some patriot unhinged person doesn't use the fact we know where and when he'll be to cause him to be persuaded to shuffle this mortal coil, leaving an opening in SCOTUS that Trump can't fill with a similar right wing christofacist due to the fact Democrats hold the Senate.
The entirety of his course...
"CIVIL RIGHTS ARE BAD! STOP ASKING FOR THEM YOU SCUMMY PEOPLE! NOW GET OFF MY LAWN!!"
No matter your race, colour of skin you can be corrupt and be safe from any repercussions. What is more DEI than that.
