Please ensure that the “malicious compliance” aspect is apparent - if you’re making a text post, be sure to explain this part; if it’s an image/video/link, use the “Body” field to elaborate.

I agree with you. Isn't race specifically a protected class with the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendment specifically? Political ideology or beliefs are not protected, unless violence is utilized. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Correct. The point is sexual orientation should be protected like race.

For employment purposes, it is. Court precedents have affirmed that discriminating against someone based on sexual orientation is a form of sex-based discrimination which is illegal under Title VII.

But creative works (like baking a cake or building a website) are protected by the constitution as free speech. You can’t compel someone to perform a creative work against their own beliefs.

That’s why you’re allowed to refuse to build a website for a gay couples wedding, but you can’t refuse to change their tyres.

I think you mean for a hypothetical website that was never ordered and certainly never order by the straight man the website sited. The court just ruled on two cases that were effectively made up. As the loan company also didn't have any issue with debt forgiveness, and the state "filed for them" to "create" an injured party. it is past time to pit enough people on the bench that One president can't fuck the legal system up for 6 peoples lifetimes.
