This series on Human Events will be a weekly feature to shine a bright light on the social media activities between those who claim to be part of the “diversity and tolerance” crowd.
Each week, we will take a look at some of the goings on from the world of social media. While the traditional large platforms are quick to silence conservative voices, even for factually correct postings, they seem to let others say whatever they wish, regardless of the degree of maliciousness

Last week, we showed you attacks levied by Team Left against Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, including racist tweets referring to him as “Uncle Thomas.” This week, Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) is the latest target of the left’s racial twitter hatred, with some referring to him as “Uncle Tim Scott” after his vote against Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court nomination.

Many variations of the moniker have been proposed, some preferring “Uncle Tom Scott.”
Tim Scott should change his name to Uncle Tom Scott.

One referred to Scott as the “Unclist of all Uncle Toms ever,” adding “He makes Clarence Thomas look like Uncle Tom’s nephew.
Tim Scott is the Unclist of all Uncle Toms ever. He makes Clarence Thomas look like Uncle Tom’s nephew.

Imagine being Black Republican Senator Tim Scott voting against the historic nomination of the first Black woman to the Supreme Court while three of your white Republican colleagues vote for her. 😏

There are 3 Black men in the U.S. Senate, 1 of them, Tim Scott voted no on confirming Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court.
There is always one of us, who thinks they know better than the rest of us Black folks. His no vote is a disgrace.
Yea I said it.

Others resorted to harsher slurs:
Tim Scott is exactly the coon white folks love.

Tim Scott is a fucking coon. A fucking sellout house nigga. Like most black Republicans. I bet he raises funds by tap dancing for white supremacists. Fuck Tim Scott and don’t @ me either. Y’all are too soft on collaborators.

Congratulations to Tim Scott for being Summa Coon Lawdy

Tim Scott really thought he was doing something cool but all he did was cement himself as a gross coon who is doing everything he can to please a party that has made it clear they detest Black people.

Tim Scott doesn’t have mirrors in his house because vampires and coons avoid them.
