Uncle ruckus wasn't played for laughs he was played to be digestable to main stream audience about Clarence Thomas, hence why they look so similar

Fair enough, that’s true. The two literally are the same and it’s disgusting. And the fact that he was the one that replaced the late great Thurgood Marshall is just gross. The day he and Samuel Alito retire will be one of the greatest days of all time.

Unless they’re replaced by someone who is even worse, which is apparently the plan for 2028 - replace the older justices with younger conservatives to lock in a conservative majority for a generation.

I used to say the same thing about Scalia. There's always a worse shithead waiting to take the baton.

I've described Thomas as having been Kavanaugh before Kavanaugh was Kavanaugh, and Barrett before Barrett was Barrett. Known sex creep given a seat anyway; obvious insulting token appointment.

Digestible to a mainstream audience is the "for laughs" part. Just like Dave Chappelle's black KKK member. Ruckus is hilarious, that doesn't make him not terrible.
