Description

The Supreme Court just used the First Amendment to criticize state laws regulating what dangerous therapies mental health professionals can use. But there is a silver lining and Shannon Minter, legal director for the National Center for LGBTQ Rights (NCLR), knows what has to happen next at the state level and in malpractice suits. He joins Popok for an exclusive briefing of our audience.

This SCOTUS is an enemy of democracy and the people whose taxes pay them.

As a therapist who specializes in trauma, I can't tell you how many clients I've worked with who are victims of conversion therapy. I have written to the social work board and inquired why Brigham Young University is still allowed to have a social work program as they were one of the biggest drivers of this therapy and still hold beliefs that oppress many different populations. Of course I wasn't given a response because even the organization that preaches advocacy for the oppressed can clearly be bought out. Disgusting therapy and it's disgusting there are still providers out there advocating for it.

As a survivor of brutal juvenile conversion therapy. The bans only applied to licensed mental health professionals. They did NOT apply to religious organizations, like where I was tortured.

Why in the hell is the supreme court, or lower courts, accepting phony cases? It should be illegal and should make all rulings based on fake plaintiffs null and void.

Conversion Therapy is cruelty for gay teens, let people be who they feel comfortable.

If a Supreme Court case is manufactured then the case and ruling should be thrown out.
