I think what we’re seeing here is that hate-fueled culture war politics will travel a mile before compassion and fact-based evidence even get out of the gate. The dynamics of the anti-trans culture war have a remarkable similarity to the psychology of schoolyard bullying, for those that experienced that. It’s both sad and incredibly scary.

Matt Walsh made it clear the goal of this movement is to get these cases to SCOTUS as quickly as possible. Because there they strongly believe they will win. And with current composition of the court I fear exactly that. They have convinced courts on ideological grounds, and scientific truth is merely an inconvenience. Their quality of witnesses is just more play acting in this charade. None the less, thanks to both you and Huffpost for shining a light.
