The Court found it to be a First Amendment right to try to turn LGBTQ+ kids straight and cis.

    “The First Amendment stands as a shield against any effort to enforce orthodoxy in thought or speech in this country,” Justice Neil Gorsuch, a Donald Trump appointee, wrote for the majority.

    …in a judgement that literally allows others to force “orthodoxy in thought or speech” against members of the LGBTQ+ community. How the fuck does this make sense to these people? “My right to force you to conform to my religious ideology, overrules your right to free speech, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”?

    The fact that this was an 8-1 decision, is fucking disgusting.

      The other two liberals reasons for overturning the ban are fucking asinine too. Fuckers basically said “If we let you ban conversion therapy, they can use that logic to ban gender affirming care.” Oh okay, so they can de facto ban it and just force you into “conversion therapy” instead of just outright banning it. Good job Skippy.

    Not so fun fact, the same religious conservative legal group that killed Roe v Wade – Alliance Defending Freedom – also helped bankroll this ruling.

    They need to be buried.
