Comment on Clarence Thomas Wants to Go After Freedom of the Press
PizzaMan@lemmy.world 1 year agoOn top of that, he is in fact a Supreme Court Judge, meaning his rulings effect literally everyone. Any and all gifts towards him absolutely can lead to conflict of interests, as is shown in the above 3 links. That’s bribery.

Conflict of interest != bribery Unethical behavior != bribery
Bribery is a gift for an action. Nothing you have posted shows that Thomas acted due to a gift.

Yeah, because being pedantic really makes things better.
At the end of the day I don’t care what you call it, he is corrupt.

Words have meaning, when you use the wrong words out of ignorance, hyperbole, or malice it diminishes what you are saying.
Read what I posted a little more closely “acted due to a gift.” The two articles you keep posting show no evidence of that.
