The discussion takes a sharp turn toward recent legislation—Colorado’s new law criminalizing misgendering and deadnaming. Signed by Governor Jared Polis, this law classifies such acts as discriminatory in public accommodations, framing protections for transgender individuals.

They contend that it may inadvertently foster discrimination by suppressing free speech rather than promoting understanding.
