Justice Ginsberg – Gorsuch and Kavanaugh are “very decent, very smart individuals”

Justice Ginsberg is not overly happy with the partisan faction war over the Court. She recently came out against stuffing the bench. She’s also got some bad news for the Leftist Kavanaugh bashers.

When [Duke Law professor Neil] Siegel,  asserted during the Q&A that “nominees for the Supreme Court are not chosen primarily anymore for independence, legal ability, [and] personal decency, and I wonder if that’s a loss for all of us,” Ginsburg immediately defended Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh. “My two newest colleagues are very decent, very smart individuals,” she said…

“Nowadays, when people divide into ‘I’ll talk to my own kind, and the others I have nothing to do with,’ that’s very sad because that hasn’t been the way it was and isn’t the way this country should be,” Ginsburg said. She added that Americans should go “beyond just mere tolerance of different views” to “welcoming different views because they enrich our society.”

This last sentence is the antithesis of the #Woke movement. It runs opposed to the goals of Diversity and Inclusion. And is contradictory to the priorities of so-called Human Rights commissions. Their job, by various means, is to use force to divest the population of tolerance for different views.

They exist to use physical variations in human form and behavior to homogenize thought, compel speech and stamp out the right to individual ideas or their open expression.

Diversity of mind is not permitted. Violators shall be cleansed through sanctioned reeducation camps and sensitivity training.

Kudos to Justice Ginsberg for making the case. Let’s hope her oeuvre is an adequate shield against the intolerance of different views that currently dominates the left.
