    The difference between Clarence Thomas and George Floyd is Clarence Thomas' grandfather who stepped into the breech when Clarence Thomas' own father wasn't there.

    The result was tension and anger and his Grandfather passed before Clarence could express his profound gratitude and respect for him, so, that will be a conversation for the hereafter.

    THE NEW CIVILITY: Racist Dem Calls Clarence Thomas an ‘Uncle Tom’ During Debate Over Proposed Statue in State House.

    Of course this racist hater expressed ignorance on who the term "Uncle Tom" referred to. It was a fictional character in an historical novel based on real slaves. The brave young man "Tom" was a good man, ultimately martyred, beaten to death by a cruel master (Simon Legree) because he refused to betray the whereabouts of two women who he had assisted in escaping from slavery.

    He was repeatedly offered his life if he would give them up, and instead he laid down his life to keep them safe.

    I am not concerned that you think me being critical of a black man is racism.

    He is a man of poor moral character, who hasn't contributed anything to the cause of civl rights. He has benefited from the work of the civl rights movement without contributing to it.

    It is also clear to me that he does not respect women, I am old enough to remember the confirmation hearings.

    Wow... now there's a historical rewrite worthy of the new liberal history edition.... Classic. Floyd's rap sheet was littered with violence acts and victims.

    So you calling him an uncle tom wasn't racist? Yikes... It seems that you really don't either know the law, or how civil rights work, or at the very least, aren't willing to apply the rights that Thomas has championed as those that somehow you feel benefitted you. And isn't that the real test? So, if he wasn't getting you a reparations check, he's abusing his "privilege" that other black rights activists pioneered for him? That's pretty laughable. I remember the confirmation hearings too and it was always apparent that like the Kavanaugh hearings, those charges were as manufactured as they could have been. Literally, a congressional lynching. Would you not agree? And this is what you're saying you support, fair? so, don't be concerned with me, be concerned that your written words are here for posterity and folks will read the vitriol you wrote.

    Didn't mean to give you the impression that I'm not white.

    You clearly think Anita Hill is a liar who committed perjury. We aren't going to agree about that.

    Poor moral character, that is likely the reason the right is wanting to build a statue of him as it aligns so perfectly.

    He not only benefited from these programs he complains about but actively works to remove them for others. Another republican staple.

    If the truth offends you it is you that have the problem not the one speaking the truth.

    Why don't you just go ahead and call him Uncle Tom again or do you want me to go ahead and have to search to post the screenshot where you called him Uncle Tom before?
    I can still find it you know?

    Don't worry because I'm sure your fellow Progs have no issue with you sitting here calling him an Uncle Tom
