they literally redefined dysphoria and the process of aging itself as socially-imposed violence unless you pumped in the Lupron

and you can see how much of this depends on personnel: the ACLU went from the ever-critical "mighty Ira" Glasser to basically a DNC arm featuring people like Amber Heard or Chase Strangio

The ACLU thing really makes me sad.

yeah, the old ACLU could identify a culture-war wedge issue when it saw one, and even talk to both sides of the argument to make them realize that their views are being deliberately limited to provide fodder for heartless politicians: as the saying goes, even if you disagreed with their position, they still had principles

historians will see Trump as important not because of what he did but because of how people's brains popped--even before 2016 the "liberals" wanted WWIII with Russia and opposed due process and "freeze peach"

the new one sues schools over A Charlie Brown Christmas and says there can BE no debate on certain issues: they bend like a rubber plant on even Black or trans issues if it benefits the establishment Democrat running this year, it's selling your soul for the likes of Rahm Emmanuel or Andrew Cuomo

The ACLU fought for the right for the KKK to march in the streets. The new ACLU thinks people should go to jail for pronoun wrongthink.
