Here is a public service announcement filmed by the Dallas Cowboys in the 1980s, and I promise that you would not correctly guess who pops up at the end if I gave you 10,000 tries

This is the place of employment where he sexually harassed Anita h Hill and other women. Fucker.

Gino Belgeri · Jun 16

For a nanosecond before he appeared, there was a pubic hair on the camera lens so I knew he was coming up.

@pattyanne49.bsky.social · Jun 17

Well I admit, my gob was smacked when Uncle Thomas popped up touting EEOC. Especially since Reagan's pic was looming over his shoulder, and he was not a fan of that commission.

@blondbomber.bsky.social · Jun 16

Oh I see…a lifetime civil servant.

@mrtoads.bsky.social · Jun 16

They must have paid him a lot!

@addiedevant.bsky.social · Jun 17

My sister was an EEOC lawyer before and after Reagan sent Clarence Thomas to neuter the agency. He destroyed the work they were doing.

He's reading off a card. It's obvious his heart wasn't in it.

a bezoar · Jun 16

Clarence Thomas is a lifelong fan of the Dallas Cowboys and became a personal friend of owner Jerry Jones who would gift him all sorts of things. If the Cowboys had an employment dispute Thomas would likely take the owner's side.

EEOC specifically? No As soon as they said "and a team works together" and it was the 80s and the racial composition of the shots and I knew instantly it was race related What specific form, from "Dont Say Slurs" to "Hire Black People" etc, thats tricky But the broad strokes are pretty obvious

@erickbt.bsky.social · Jun 17

HOLY FORK!!!!! 😂

@kathmandu513.gobirds.online · Jun 16

I was not ready for that.

Just another Trish · Jun 16

Clarence Thomas, Chairman of EEOC. What a fluffing hypocrite.

@realcdndude.bsky.social · Jun 16

Was that before the pubic hair in the coke can incident?

Marc Lippincott · Jun 16

It explains why the EEOC sucked after this.

It's not that surprising given that it's one of the workplaces where he sexually harassed Anita Hill.

He's going to put a hit out on you for sharing this. 😄

@bigcee.bsky.social · Jun 17

He has a voice??

Erik Smith · Jun 16

Does he have a clone? A robot double? An extradimensional counterpart?

@sufficiency.bsky.social · 25d

That BUT from CT is telling. Sounds like he thinks equal employment should be a matter of personal responsibility, but it happens to also be a law (for now). At least that’s ideologically consistent: social change through motivating individuals not regulating them.

CMHoskins · Jun 16

Huh. Imagine that.

felinecannonball · Jun 16

I knew he worked there, but it's a weird ad. "The EEOC will assist you in being a team player by burying your complaint and reminding you to stop fighting the man." ----- Of course, today we have a white nationalist in there focused on "reverse racism."

clarence fucking thomas, you’re right, I never would have guessed it’s him. Im so surprised.

I thought it would be him on camera speaking since it had govt vibes and was from the early 80s. Or OJ Simpson (I do not know which team he played for). So got it in two tries.

Fckn crazy pos.

Daniel McLaury · Jun 16

Let's see. It has to be someone who was around and popular in the 1980s. Okay, ready to start my 10,000 guesses. 1. The guy is called Doug Cosbie, and The Cosby show was the top show on TV at the time, so maybe Bill Cosby? 2. Or maybe ALF? Had a popular show and would be unexpected.

OMFG

@zone50ruralcarrier.bsky.social · Jun 17

Oh my?!? You're right. That was unexpected. Is he actively working to suppress this? Is that why, 40 years later no one's seen this til now?

Can you spell H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E? During Thomas' confirmation hearing, where allowed the aggressive grilling of accuser Anita Hill & failed to call corroborating witnesses, ultimately aiding Thomas's narrow confirmation. Biden voted nay, but the damage was already done. Biden got us Thomas.
