    The group’s work against LGBTQ+ people has led experts on extremism at the Southern Poverty Law Center to label them a hate group.

    Good. The only freedom they're trying to protect is their freedom to harass others without consequence.

    They're against:

    • the freedom to have an abortion
    • the freedom for transgender people to participate in sports
    • the freedom for transgender people to not be forcibly sterilized
    • the freedom to have sex with people of the same sex
    • the freedom of cis girls born with XY chromosomes to compete in sports

    I'd say it's more appropriate to call them "Alliance Against Freedom"

    "Alliance Defending Freedom" is clearly not living up to its name.

      Just like the National Socialist German Worker's Party wasn't actually socialist.

      Fine. I've put it back in ~news. And I've added the lgbt tag I was going to add before I realised this post actually belonged in ~lgbt.
