I'm confused. I was told for literal years that as long as they satisfy the constitutional requirements then somebody is qualified. If she gets nominated and confirmed then by definition she is qualified. Seems there's several users here who aren't consistent on this issue.

You call her an affirmative action pick with no justification, just going along with the right wing dog whistle of attacking her for being a black women who couldn't possibly be qualified.


You failed the test.

Biden explicitly said a black woman would be chosen and excluded other candidates.
Its not racist to point this out.

Typical bot-level response, calling anyone who doesn't strictly toe your anarcho-capitalist version of libertarianism a dEmOcRaT.

I never said she doesn't deserve scrutiny, and I don't agree with the idea that she's the most qualified SCOTUS nominee ever. But she is qualified...certainly more than ACB, who spent her entire career in academia before being nominated. Jackson has spent time on federal benches, so the idea that she's unqualified is ludicrous, and an NPC opinion..


You've been acting like a low IQ democrat/leftist for years yet play the 'im not a real libertarian' game because I criticize democrats, which is obviously invalid and stupid.
Your idiotic analysis and attempt to come at me are identical to the democrats whether you claim to be one or not.
Whether or not you are a democrat isn't my point.

I am not in fact calling everyone who doesnt strictly agree with me a democrat. thats a lie.

Determining 'most qualified' by years of experience and pretending she is a great pick because the media told you so is the NPC opinion.
I don't determine 'most qualified' or 'best' just by looking at who has been a judge the longest.
Having a different criteria than you is not 'ludicrous'. That just shows your ignorance and close-mindedness.

A person being a judge for years does not make them a good judge, let alone the most qualified person to interpret the US Constitution and make good rulings that will be incredibly important.

I already outlined obvious concerns with the pick and you had no response.

Man it would be hard to type up a more straw-man response than this.

Surf never said she's most qualified, nor did he say that years of experience is the sole determining factor, nor does Surf get his opinions from "the media".

You literally just made up a bunch of things and claimed he said them so you could type a rage essay.

Oh good we get this shitheel troll to join the convo.

1. Illustrating my reasons for criticizing the pick and attacking statements that have been made on the topic is valid and not a strawman.
I never said surfpunk explicitly made all of those claims related to everything I said.

2. "Jackson has spent time on federal benches, so the idea that she's unqualified is ludicrous, and an NPC opinion.."

You unambiguously attributed this to Surf. You can try to run and hide, but your blatant strawman is there for everybody to see. He never said that most qualified could be determined by years of experience, or that she's a great pick because of those years. The only other option is that you just shouted that into the aether, but considering you were talking to Surf it's pretty obvious you were attributing that to his position.

Time for him to call you a stupid liar. That's all he does in the end and we're there.

His metric for evaluating good or bad picks are "If nominated by Democrat, bad pick. If nominated by Republican, say nothing and if anything is said then say praise".

That simple. Because he's an authoritarian boot licker.

You aren't intellectually qualified to interpret my comments or determine what is a strawman.

'x is bad'

'no y is bad.'

'you unambiguously said punk said y! strawman!'

no. idiot.

Blah blah fucking blah. You're an NPC screaming into the void on a gaming website. Since moderation on this site sucks, and has for quite some time, I don't put much effort into posting here any more. It isn't worth it to argue with the mouth breathers that have plagued this sub for years.

I also never said she was a 'good judge' or a 'great pick'. Simply that A:) she has more qualifications than ACB did at her point of nomination, and B:) the idea that Jackson is unqualified for the bench is fucking stupid (and considering that federal judges swear an oath to uphold the Constitution before taking office, "the bench" = "uphold the Constitution" in this context). It's even more stupid when you consider that the Constitution has no prerequisites to be nominated to or to sit on the Supreme Court.

Oh no my racist dog whistle actually wasn't racist because I'm actually such a partisan hack that I'd dismiss anyone who isn't a partisan conservative as unqualified. I'm totally not using affirmative action due to its long history of connection with dismissing minorities of ever being qualified.

Someone how I just don't buy that you'd be attacking a white male nominee as being unqualified and would just focus on them being liberal.
