⬆️ On ignore as well. The 65.

This is precisely why I have the King's and Finding's of PPP on ignore. They approach issue after issue using similar logic to this lawyer arguing in front of SCOTUS. People who live 24/7 under a green sky deserve none of your attention. Alito asks whether transgender is an immutable characteristic. Strangio argues that there is a "strong biological basis" between sex and gender identity. Therefore, it is immutable. In the very next question, Alito asks about gender fluidity. Strangio argues that gender identity is informed by an individual's "understanding." Therefore, it is fluid - the very antithesis of immutable. It should not be lost on us that we live in a time where the US Supreme Court is presented two arguments back-to-back that are completely and undeniably in contradiction with each other while the arguing attorney has the ability to carry on with full confidence, lacking any awareness of these glaring problems. Thus, we have some of the best legal minds in the country hearing arguments from someone who not only cannot identify her own contradictions but does not appear to comprehend the very concept of "contradiction" in the first place. I guess this shouldn't be much of a surprise since the judicial bench is shared with another justice who casually compares the risks of taking aspirin to the chronic administration of deforming and sterilizing hormones. There are many questions that will arise from the Skrmetti case but one that I imagine we will be pondering for quite some time is how we got to this situation in the first place.
