These charades will be consistently overturned because they are obviously unconstitutional, but passing these broken laws isn't their point - they just want the LGBTQIA+ community to live in constant fear.
People are also simple though, so the longer they can repeat the lie, the more people start to accept it as the status quo. They make a lot of noise in "passing" initially and then the reality follow-up (like this) gets a fraction of the attention typically - that makes it a "win" for the bad guys overall.
Wonderful journalism, wow. I will say that it did take too long to read that Leonard Leo planned/coordinated the whole trip. This Supreme Court is so fully out in the open fucked.
In a legitimate society with a sliver of integrity this would not be tolerated.
