The Spin

Right narrative

The Supreme Court correctly upheld presidential authority over the State Department and passport policy. The government has scored another victory by requiring citizens to list their biological sex on passports. Also, there are two sexes, and this decision protects that fundamental truth.

Left narrative

The Supreme Court's discriminatory decision strips away decades of precedent. This heartbreaking policy forces people to carry passports that violate their privacy against their will, increasing harassment and violence. The ruling dehumanizes and endangers transgender, nonbinary and intersex citizens.
