Not in this case. This also protects talk therapists in CO to AFFIRM a child's orientation. But you didn't read the article, right? Want to know why support from trans people is falling? Yeah. This is why.

People do understand this also means a talk therapist in Colorado can AFFIRM a child's orientation, right? It's not a one way street. But seeing the responses makes it clear that ANYTHING around trans issues leads directly to emotion and black and white thinking. JUST what MAGA wants.

Okay so we're no different than Iran at this point This is literally horrific and we are endorsing torture Not like any of this is unexpected our government is literally fucking evil beyond all reasons

This should set off alarm bells to everyone who reads this. Once they've pushed the LGBTQ community back into the shadows, they'll set their sights on a new group. Poor people, people with mental illness, people with profound health issues. It won't stop with my community. That you can be sure of.

Curious if they can use this ruling as a way to protect trans rights and abortion rights? If it’s a violation of the state to get involved with conversion therapy bc of free speech, wouldnt the same apply for medical doctors advising for hormone therapy or pregnancy termination?

They're probably trying to protect gay rights by going for a broad ability for free speech in medical contexts so it would be harder to pull more Skrmettis. They're wrong. Jackson is correct medical speech is special and needs regulation, and S/K are just ignoring that cons just hate queers

state's rights have always been about my state's rights to make yours shut up and do as you're told, since the confederacy

This is what happens when we allow a member of a cult, that itself sends kids to conversion therapy, to join a government body that is unaccountable to the public. Amy Coney Barrett will continue attempting to destroy Americans' lives if it conforms to the teachings of POP prophet Kevin Ranaghan

Because "counseling" and "therapy" which involve almost exclusively talking, are about "free speech" and not "medicine." And because mental abuse isn't as bad as physical abuse (even though it is actually worse). There is nothing rational or sane about this SCOTUS. www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

The Supreme Court is as supremely feckless as thr Cheeto Overlord that they fear. THE FUCKING APA has banned CT, this is not a counselor or therapist ot is a fucking tribalist politicized monster who shouldn't be allowed to talk to a canine, let alone a person. 🖕
