    The Federalist Society six would have to struggle to be more obvious in their intentions. Normally, cases are dismissed unless someone has standing, e.g. is harmed directly by a given incident, and often judges will dismiss cases, even when there’s clear wrongdoing, but the plaintiff doesn’t have clear standing.

    Given no-one bothered to confirm that Lorie Smith was actually commissioned by a couple to make a gay wedding website, it shows just how overly eager the court was to utilize this case to further privilige Christians over all others in the US.

    Not only do bullshit rulings like this further reveal the court’s corruption (and de-legitimize it further in the eyes of the public and legal acadamia) but it also further divides society. Some Christians don’t actually want to be Christian Nationalists or haters, and yet more and more they’re having to choose between their faith and their community.
