This is the world I grew up in, so please stop the crying, you live in the wealthiest nation in history and want for nothing, you don't know poverty, you have no idea.

Snowflakes, totally detached from reality.

Seems crazy this was even a case to decide.

Writing for the court, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said that the Supreme Court's case law "makes clear that the standard for proving disparate treatment under Title VII does not vary based on whether or not the plaintiff is a member of a majority group. ... The 'background circumstances' rule flouts that basic principle."

Jackson noted that the requirement uniformly subjects all majority-group plaintiffs to "the same, highly specific evidentiary standard in every case."

Yeah, just read about it. It's a great outcome. I'm glad that even the liberal judges sided with the plaintiff.

You just can't make this stuff up ... I was browsing through AliExpress today, looking for insoles for my tennis shoes, when I found this golden nugget of an ad:
