I asked myself today a question, as I was reading the 1st admendment as someone posted and I asked myself What if we just convert the T and take the whole bad case of trans-ideology and make it a real religion.
Ideally, doing so establishes a protection under the 1st admendment and any bills banning transgender anything will make it null and void. Can easily move non-profit over to help one another. it is all the working of wording and how it’s worded, if done right.
Here is some refferences:
