Barney Frank would be so proud

Ironically both of those examples are more junk science than most testimony

Giggling thinking of Martin Luther being told this

Im sorry, but this isnt what selling out trans people looks like nor giving people an unearned pass. Go yell at Schumer and Jeffries.

I understand why you think that but that isn't what it says and most of the public have no idea this even happened. The entire point of this, again, was to take our your righteous anger on the peolle actually abandoning us. Chris isnt one of them.

And again, explaining how it functions isnt saying that is *how* it should function. Understanding how things work matters, even if we dont like how they are working. And that understanding needs to be deeper than platitudes.

Reading the article explains that! She could have written the best dissent ever and we still would have lost! And (part) of her point is even if Title IX doesnt protect the 14th Amd. does so in her mind we'd win no matter what. Constitutional arguments preemptively statutory arguments.

No, of course not. Im just saying Chris isnt the person to yell at for it.

Neither Chris nor I are defending how the court functions or saying it's fair. The piece was explaining what KJB did and how things could be fixed in the future.

The conservatives have been using standing and mootness for decades to control what the court sees and has nothing to do with trans people specfically. Look at the student loan lawsuits.

Well I cant fit an entire legal education in a post. Your anger at what is happening to us is valid and real. Just that you are aiming it at the wrong person. We are also winning in a lot of places that dont make national news you would see more in Chris's writing.

But it isn't. Thats why Bostock didnt work for them. There might be a thing or two to legal analysis that people who are trained in it understand and are trying to explain. But apparently attempting that makes you a traitor to trans people.

Because that's not how the law works. Even when the majority are tearing apart the constitution there is still a methodology to it. And again, why are you situating me outside the "we" despite me clearly stating I'm a part of?

Yea, as someone who is both trans and a lawyer I'm incredible confused (not really) about why everyone is coming for Chris.

Gay trans men were essentially not allowed to exist until Lou Sullivan en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lou_Sul...
