ITT: a lot of dumb, presumptuous comments that completely miss the legal point of the case.
That being: should majority groups (e.g. Whites, men, heterosexuals, etc) have to provide a greater amount of evidence to prove they’re being discriminated against than minority groups.
But no, forget about that. Just call the plaintiff a worthless Karen, completely ignoring the fact that employers regularly choose arbitrary reasons for firing people or denying them promotions which have nothing to do with their actual reasons for doing so.
Presumptuous of you to assert that the plaintiff actually was asked to provide a greater amount of evidence, considering you don't have any evidence to support that aside from the fact that the plaintiff said so
Not my point at all, try again. I said the point of the case for SCOTUS was to decide whether majority groups had a higher standard of evidence to meet discrimination claims. Which Justice Kagan stated quite clearly:
You don't have a point, there's no evidence here to suggest she was held to a higher standard than anyone else, cry about it
🤦🏻♂️ Alright, dude, bye.
Bye!
