This is as close to feeling pure schadenfreude as this writer has ever come.
For years, the Left has argued that gender is fluid. That was the basis in which they sought unlimited power and control over the language. Because gender was fluid, they argued, they couldn't be held to any gender norms and could be perpetually offended by ... well ... everything.
So to see that argument come back and bite them on the butt warms the cockles of this writer's heart.
Take a gander at this:
Mark McEathron (@Mark_McEathron) ~ Justice Alito asking if trans status is immutable is one of the greatest legal questions I've ever seen. Civil Rights exist solely based upon immutable human traits. Gender fluidity, by definition, is not immutable. Pure brilliance by Alito today.
This is correct: civil rights are based on immutable human traits. If gender is fluid and changing, it's not immutable.
Game. Over.
B. Miller (@BlaiseInKC) ~ Merriam-Webster to alter the definition of “immutable” in the near future.
