Why do we need mentally ill people dictating the 99% majority? And why do we have fools like you trying to convince us too that yall aren't all mentally ill?why do we need 800+ new Republican gender conformity laws?

You play this same game endlessly... you know exactly what I mean!

Because of the mentally ill and those like you that push such asinine dumb is the result of such laws.
Profit seeking in medicine bad now?
Shut up Brooke!
SCOTUS blesses an rans animus in Skrmetti
https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinion...3-477_2cp3.pdfDoctors in the United States prescribe hormones and puberty inhibitors to treat a range of medical conditions. Often, they are administered to help minors conform to the typical appearance associated with their sex identified at birth. Children who start experiencing puberty at a premature age (precocious puberty), for example, have long received puberty-delaying medications to stave off puberty until adolescence. See App. 22. Adolescent boys might also receive the hormone testosterone to initiate puberty delayed beyond its typical start. App. to Pet. for Cert. 266a. Without testosterone, puberty would “eventually initiate Cite as: 605 U. S. ____ (2025) SOTOMAYOR, J., dissenting 3 naturally” in most patients, but medication “is often prescribed to avoid some of the social stigma that comes from undergoing puberty later than one’s peers.” Ibid. Adolescent females with delayed puberty may receive the hormone estrogen for the same reason. Ibid. After puberty begins, doctors may prescribe these same medicines to adolescents whose physical appearance does not align with what one might expect from their sex identified at birth. An adolescent female, for example, might receive testosterone suppressors and hormonal birth control to reduce the growth of unwanted hair on her face or body (sometimes called male-pattern hair growth or hirsutism). See ibid.; see also App. 100 (“[M]edications that are used to suppress testosterone can be used to address symptoms of polycystic ovarian syndrome, which can include unwanted facial hair and body hair, excessive sweating, and body odor”); Brief for Experts on Gender Affirming Care as Amici Curiae 12 (describing the prevalence of hirsutism in people identified as female at birth).1 An adolescent male may also receive hormones to address a benign but atypical increase in breast gland tissue (known as gynecomastia), sometimes resulting from below-average testosterone levels. See, e.g., G. Kanakis et al., EAA Clinical Practice Guidelines—Gynecomastia Evaluation and Management, 7 Andrology 778, 779–780 (2019). Like any medical treatment, hormones and puberty blockers come with the potential for side effects. See, e.g., App. to Pet. for Cert. 266a–267a; App. 970974; Brief for United States 45–46. Yet patients and their parents may decide to proceed with treatment on the advice of a physician, despite the accompanying medical risks.
it's a mediagenic moral panicThe repression of trans people is not, by and large, a grassroots outpouring of hatred from the American people. It's something that's been carefully planted and tended over years by a handful of media people and their pet reporters.
Federal judge vacates website scrubbing in furtherance of Trump's anti-trans EO
https://storage.courtlistener.com/re...77069.60.0.pdfAn executive order can do a lot, but it does not absolve agencies of their obligations to follow the law. The defendants acted contrary to law and arbitrarily and capriciously in swiftly enacting and implementing sweeping and poorly thought-through directives that ordered the bulk removal of health care resources on which the government had induced substantial and ongoing reliance. Hence, the Court must vacate both directives and the actions taken pursuant to them that caused the plaintiffs’ injuries—i.e., the substantial modification or removal of webpages and datasets on which the plaintiffs rely. Despite the defendants’ concern, this decision does not threaten the government’s ability to “choose[] what to say and what not to say.” See Opp’n at 1 (quoting Shurtleff v. City of Boston, 596 U.S. 243, 251 (2022)). Far from it. The government is free to say what it wants, including about “gender ideology.” But in taking action, it must abide by the bounds of authority and the procedures that Congress has prescribed, through the APA and otherwise. And the government failed to do so here.
valid state IDs and driver's licenses invalidated without notice
con uous delight in stripping a tiny and harmless minority of their rights and indeed their personal iden y -- is noticed
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...ault-on-rightsTransgender Kansas residents have begun receiving letters from the state’s department of motor vehicles notifying them that their driver’s licenses will be invalid beginning Thursday, as a new law goes into effect that demands that forms of identification must now reflect the credential holder’s “sex at birth”.
The bill, known as SB 244, also bans transgender people from using bathrooms in public buildings that match their gender iden y, and creates a sort of bounty hunter system, in which citizens can sue transgender people they encounter in restrooms for $1,000 in damages.
The state law was rushed through the state legislature using an expedited procedure known as “gut and go”. This means the text of one bill can be taken out and subs uted for entirely new language or provisions, bypassing standard committee vetting and speeding through the voting process, which is legal in Kansas.
Governor Laura Kelly, a Democrat, vetoed the bill, arguing that SB 244 was “poorly drafted legislation”, but her veto was overridden by the state legislature’s Republican supermajority.
this case btw is about to face the wrath of the judge at issue, Royce Lamberth
this is after the judicial order to cease retaliating

bathroom bounties
https://amp.kansascity.com/news/poli...314844596.htmlAnyone found to have improperly used a restroom or other private space in a government building would face a written warning for a first violation. A second violation would carry a $1,000 fine, and each subsequent violation would be a misdemeanor offense punishable by another fine and up to six months in jail.
Anyone who believes someone used the wrong restroom in their presence could file a complaint seeking $1,000.
“This whole deputization thing — it turns Kansas residents into Dog the Bounty Hunter,” Lawson said. “So now I have to worry about people watching me walk into the ladies’ room, and then oh, they’re going to call in a $1,000 bounty on me. That is just so, so wrong on so many levels.
“I have several trans male friends,” she said. “You cannot tell by looking at them. They’ve got like Moses-level beards going on, and this law is putting them in the ladies’ room. It’s completely insane.”
another pretextual traffic stop
Lamberth outright laughs at the DOJ attorney's statement that it was going to file a motion to reconsider his no-retaliation order: "In light of this, you think I'm going to reconsider my retaliation order?"
Lamberth says he's considering holding individual officials at the BOP in contempt.https://bsky.app/profile/reichlinmel.../3mfrxp65jik2aLamberth's back. He orders the warden and all of the officers named in the plaintiffs' affidavits to show cause by Tuesday why they shouldn't be held in civil contempt. He also orders BOP to give him a plan as to how they'll protect plaintiffs from further retaliation. Hearing next Thursday.
