I guess Americans are shown once again that there is no need for a legislature when the judiciary simply rewrites the law. Title VII explicitly disallowed discrimination based on five aspects: race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. No where is "sexual orientation" or "gender identity" listed.
The law has not been amended by Congress, and signed by the President. It has been updated by SCOTUS without the political input of the people. The Constitution loses again. If the American public wants to make discrimination based on "sexual orientation" or gender identity illegal then pass a law.
This is ridiculous, and as Alito points out in his dissent, it will lead to many issues such as how the 14th amendment will now be interpreted in regards to these categories.
Is there any way this ever gets overturned? Once again, the right isn't allowed to go within 10 feet with their opinions but the left is allowed to jam their trans dick in your face with aplomb.
And the argument from the Left has been "sex and gender are two different things!"
Now the SCOTUS has said "Sex, gender, sexual orientation, and gender identity are inextricably linked and fall under the umbrella of 'sex' legally." Now the left will use that for their legal benefit, all while maintaining that gender is completely different from sex.

Congress can repeal or amend the Civil Rights Act.
So, no, there is no way this ever gets overturned.
The tree is thirsty.
Yeah
