When I was straight-up banned from a business for being trans, the ACLU told me it only takes cases with impact potential.

But Nazi speech defense is a settled issue, legally speaking. There is no impact potential for defending Milo.

So why not let the lawfirm of Dirtbag & Fashy LLC handle it? Because the legal community gets off on Nazi shit.

It allows them to feel like they're making a deeply painful yet morally principled stand.

Meanwhile, no one is showing up to help trans folks fight insurance denials.

I have a lot of trouble understanding the ACLU's priorities. You can't prioritize defending everyone's free speech. Why do this?

My best guess is that they're trying to deflect the "ACLU is leftist" by being assholes.

American's willingness to defend ideas they "don't like" includes the swastika, but does not include the rainbow. Funny that!

There are pride parades in my town but I don't notice any one goose stepping down the street. I wonder why? You live in an alternate reality

No, I don't. You're just characterizing what I say is all. It's nothing I haven't seen before and honestly it's childish. So meh.

Show me a Nazi parade irl current year

A nazi parade is not requisite to support the spirit of my statement. That's an irrelevant thing you tacked on. But Spencer draws a crowd.

Lmao.

Spirit of my stateent: gay folks like me are subject to more social isolation and legislative attacks than open racists.
