I have been trying to read up on this (I cannot read legalese very well) but it seems to be positive for, let's say, white males. Because the significant harm has been lowered, it will make it easier for a white male to bring a case.

Although it’s great that the Supreme Court has weighed in, there is already a law in place that protects workers from discriminatory practices. Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act does NOT exclude white people or, specifically, white men.

Right, this was a ruling on Title VII…specifically that the appellate court interpretation of the standard required to bring a case was too high. So this ruling allows Title VII cases to be brought with a much lower standard and without a need to prove specific violations of

Patriot Roy Rogue has posted the prior decision from the appeals court, which SCOTUS has overturned. In particular, the assertion that any “materially significant harm” must be proven. By lowering the standard of proof, SCOTUS has now opened the door. 💪🇺🇸

These people will continue to do as they wish, confident that they will never personally be held to account for anything they do. They know they can make it nearly impossible to prove and nobody without a legal foundation or rich individual bankrolling a lawsuit, that will take years to work its way through the system, can even challenge them. And in the event a Court issues an unfavorable ruling, it will be against the institution they work for, not them personally.
I talked to a Native American tonight who is finishing his PHD this year.
He was afraid this ruling would hurt Native American students. They traditionally are able to get into college programs, or get grants and scholarships based on ethnicity.
He would qualify regardless for placement in college, but so many Native Americans struggle to succeed. He said this new ruling will help many, but bring unintended harm to others.
So…they have benefitted from ignoring the more quality applicants—grade/ACT/SAT-wise, and instead focused on immutable characteristics instead, regardless of how qualified they are.
Textbook definition of racism and discrimination.
Perhaps the White and Asian candidates—deserve—to be there. And the Indians should start at community college, like so many White/Asian people had to, because their spot was stolen by others.
I have no sympathy.
This has been, and will remain, a problem until those racist people are given consequence.
Thanks. Not sure this decision did exactly what your headline claims, thought it was not counter effectual to what you say, or a reversal of the lower courts decision.
I get a kick out of the DEI in video games, because they take 4 to even 10 years to make now. So all these companies that are forcing this into their catalog are sweating fucking bullets now having to release a game that was developed 4 years ago when this shit was at it's peak. All of them are completely tanking and faceplating out the gate, losing millions to billions. Having to lay off full dev teams, oh, it's the best. I can't wait to see if GTA VI has some schweeeet baby inc nonsense in it that implodes it.
Let the lawsuits against DEI begin
The governor in Florida is investigating Starbucks for doing this DEI bs currently, when Florida made a law it is illegal.
So no more Starbucks!

The decision seems to be exactly the opposite. The discrimination lawsuit was thrown out in lower courts because she did not show significant harm.
Scotus has ruled that she does not have to show significant harm and vacated the lower court ruling.

That's what I got out of it. So it's a win (for people who had a hard time winning - we know who).
I am of the hope that Thomas may actually be swaying some of the more intellectually challenged justices behind closed doors...
Very surprised they managed to get a 9-0 unanimous outcome on this one.
It benefitted a female. If it had been a white male moved for DEI reasons, there are at least 2 justices who would have gone the other way.

I don't care ... its about time merit and grades mean something again.
I'm American Indian and I have never used my ethnicity as a crutch.
Work hard, get good grades and develop your talents and you don't need any BS reverse discrimination.
