Re: Headlines that signal that the story will be misleading and/or stupid
As I noted in the post that I made before reading the article, it is possible that he was critical of some aspect of the case in Brown, or that he was critical of some way in which Brown was subsequently applied. That turned out to be the case, on further reading. Yes, it could be said that Thomas ...

Re: Headlines that signal that the story will be misleading and/or stupid
But one question that may be relevant is to what extent Brown demanded the things that Thomas criticizes. Thomas opposes actions that have been taken by courts, and that used Brown as justification. The Bar Association article emphasizes the "integrationist approach" that Thomas has criti...

Re: Headlines that signal that the story will be misleading and/or stupid
A lot of people disagree with Thomas' approach to racial issues. He's one of the advocates of "color blind law", who finds any legal distinction between races to be unconstituional or at best suspicious. That's why he supports Brown, and cases like it that have arisen subsequently, but op...

(Preface: I present the following because of my interest in chatGPT.
