Identify Yourself - a live stream you can live with
It felt like SCOTUS handed us a defeat in Chiles vs Salazar. But the decision, built upon a First Amendment challenge to conversion therapy bans, is only another loop in the noose to hang conservative rhetoric once and for all.
Did Sotomayor and Kagan know something we don't? I think the answer is YES!
In 2025, I predicted US vs Skrmetti put SCOTUS in a position where it could not win, because conservative rhetoric defeats itself. Now we see this challenge to gender-affirming care strengthens our case, not theirs!
Let's talk about:
☑️ The Quagmire: how SCOTUS was hog-tied before Skrmetti even started
☑️ The Pitch: why Chiles is only a defeat if we misunderstand it
☑️ The Strikeout: how Chiles can destroy conservative anti-Queer rhetoric once and for all
