    The problem is that Alito is on the other side of those things and also holds a lot of power. “No compromise” to him means a lot of suffering for minority groups.

      Thats a different problem, but it doesn’t change that his statement one that both sides agree on. Its a statement of rationality, not of policy. Again, I’m not Alito defender, but we can’t get wrapped around the axle on the definition of logic.

        Words are shaped by their context and their intent. Alito is not being a broken clock here but rather just a fascist asshole.

          I agree. In this case, and yes, he’s likely thinking about the policy positions the polar opposite that you and I are. However, we all agree that there is no half solution on the rights of LGBTQ+ that any of the 3 of us would be okay with.

          He’s being both.
