Eventually all these blatantly unconstitutional right wing culture wars laws qill be struck down.
But not before thwy cause a lot of harm to vulnerable people.
And not without spending millions on years of lawyer fees.

Except the Supreme Court is also a bunch of right wing culture warriors who will decide whatever blatantly unconstitutional bullshit they feel like
I think a lot of activist organizations have yet to realize the old way of going to the courts to get the laws thrown out might now actually be 'the old way' and may no longer be relevant. I'm scared how our Supreme Court will change things.
Their goal is to get the cases to the Supreme Court. There, they hope the conservative Supreme Court will rule "gender affirming care is child abuse and can be banned." Then, they will make more extreme laws and repeat the process. If the Supreme Court justices ever balk, they'll just go back and reword the law so the Court approves of it.
They're using the Supreme Court as a "backdoor legislative tool."
