Honoring Justice O'Connor
Lying in repose for a day
Her legacy lives on -
"Glowing accolades from politicos of every stripe have poured in for former Supreme Court Justice #sandradayoconnor who died on December 1. But for workers once employed at now-defunct Western Airlines, such praises may ring hollow. O’Connor, you see, busted their union and made sure it stayed that way."

Retired U.S. Justice Sandra Day O’Connor, the first woman on the U.S. Supreme Court, died on Friday at the age of 93, the court said. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/12/02/world/sandra-day-oconnor-dies-93/?utm_content=bufferd9e9b&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #worldnews #sandradayoconnor #obituary #ussupremecourt #us

I am of two minds here.
On the one hand, blaming the one woman in the court for not foreseeing the long term consequences of her own moderation rubs me all kinds of wrong.
On the other hand, white women--not just conservative, I mean white--by and large tend to fuck themselves over a lot by playing the game of appeasing white men, often without realizing that's what they're doing.
the "moderate center" is always left of SCOTUS/governments. Always.

First female #SCOTUS judge #SandraDayOconnor died at the ripe old age of 30 years too late.
Lest y'all forget, she was the swing vote to hand the election to George Bush and then retired so she could be replaced by Alito.
She was no Kissinger but good lord don't be saying her name kindly just because she had a vagina. She has more blood on her hands than all but the absolute worst in humanity. -
Sandra Day O'Connor lived a good life--and outlived Kissinger.
(she was also the Justice for whom genre romance author Courtney Milan clerked, for anyone interested)

Justice O'Connor's jurisprudence wasn't always the most consistent, but I have always felt that the public never appreciated the rehabilitating work she did in Casey to try to make sense of Roe.
