In 1984, you could be tortured in Room 101 for believing that 2 + 2 = 4. Likewise, in Colorado you can be set upon by law enforcement for calling someone by the name their parents gave them or even for referring to them with factually correct pronouns.

Leftist Governor Jared Polis has signed into law House Bill 1312:

The law expands the state’s antidiscrimination laws, which apply to settings like workplaces and schools, to include provisions related to using a person’s chosen name and referring to them how they wish.

“Antidiscrimination” is the Liberalese euphemism for government-imposed discrimination benefiting favored identity groups. Only the truly privileged can get other people in trouble with the law for refusing to reject objective reality in favor of their psychotic delusions.

The law includes…

…a legislative declaration stating that people should receive health care “without unnecessary governmental interference.”

By “health care,” they mean grotesque sex change procedures. The declaration is a compromise that implies without stating that parents who bring children to Colorado to inflict such horrors in violation of the law in their own state (not to mention the will of the other parent) will find a sympathetic haven, as in other states that have succumbed to end-stage liberalism like California and Minnesota.

Polis is also expected to sign House Bill 1309, which enshrines access to gender-affirming care in state law.

“Gender-affirming” is Liberalese for “gender-denying.” Judging by their tendency to call things the opposite of what they actually are, progressives must understand that most everyone would reject their sick ideology if it were accurately portrayed.
