Not really. The ACLU is for natural rights. They just like socialism and cultural marxism.
They think that government should enforce and dictate culture. But they have always been anti-deep-state, anti-rights-abuses, and anti-racism.
They just don't realize that if you turn the government into the cultural regulator, then you're essentially beefing up the deep state and setting up civil rights abuses.
So yeah, they'll sue that the FBI is hacking private devices, but then they'll turn around and sue someone who wants to not make a cake for gay people because it violates their religion and tell the state to force the gay person to make the cake against their will.
I didn't say it wasn't contradictory or flawed thinking. I'm just explaining why they did this.

I'll just disagree with you that they are "anti-rights-abuse" when they support anti-gun efforts and never fight for gun rights.
When they come around to supporting the 2nd Amendment, get back to me.
