Last week, a person with the Twitter handle @arizonasunblock from Tampa, Florida, noticed that Bradley, who has been on the high court since 2015, appeared to make major changes to her Wikipedia biography earlier this year.

“It’s so unfair that my own words can be written down for posterity!”
Tell me she doesn’t know that just because you’ve edited a Wikipedia page, that the previous version still exists, and is likely to draw attention and discussion because of your edits.
And is super easy to revert to the prior version too. It’s basically two clicks to make it happen. And then have an admin protect the page to only allow established editors so randos can’t do this with just an IP address again.
Just in case she happened to read my comment, I didn’t want to use the word “revert” in order to avoid confusion.
I love too that she mentioned, “REAL OPINIONS” as if those are more valid than the exact words she said.
It said “Actual Opinion” not “Real Opinions”.
I’m pretty sure opinion doesn’t mean what you think it does. When a judge writes up an opinion it’s a bit stronger than me saying what I do or don’t like or how I feel about something. Same as between scientific theory and the other definition.
Her judicial opinions are the exact words she wrote, though.

That’s usually the first reaction to discovering a new fetish.
Double fistings? And so it goes.
Thomas and that other guy in florida that helped craft the new educational standards with comments like “[slaves] learned new skills they could use for personal gain…” make me wonder why the hell america hasn’t already collapsed in on itself already

I can’t comment on the use of “Uncle Tom” specifically.
But we ought not to use insults like that ever. By using them on people who “deserve it”, we are basically saying these terrible things are true, but we usually don’t say them because it’s rude. A better way to think is that we don’t use discriminatory insults/slurs because the hatred they represent is completely without merit.

Luckily, this isn’t Reddit.

Yeah, but not necessarily for the same disregarding-of-context enlightened-centrist enforcing-of-“civility” bullshit that Reddit banned people for.
It’s an inaccurate epithet anyhow. Uncle Tom was overly nice to whites so as not to draw their wrath.
In the end, the whites beat Uncle Tom to death when he refused to give the whereabouts of two runaway slaves.
I don’t know what epithet you’d call someone who turned in the two slaves and lived to work the big house another day, but that’s what you should call Clarence.
I used to call Clarence an Uncle Tom, but then I read the book.

We’re just using racial slurs now? Come on, that’s over the line.
I don’t think that’s a racial slur my guy, a dictionary indicates it’s slang for female genitalia.
I believe they’re referring to the use of Uncle Thomas, which while perhaps semantically appropriate is definitely a racially charged moniker.
There’s a pretty big difference from a racial slur and a racial moniker that is only acceptable for people of that race to use as an accusation of betraying the community.
