The position of the Supreme Court's majority is that the state may impose its will on transgender people's private medical decisions but our public existence is an unfair imposition on the lives of others

The end-result of this will be a religious minority demanding an injunction against a christian display of some kind, and the supreme court ruling that christianity has privileges other faiths don't bsky.app/profile/reic...
