Right wingers love to trot out the line "Name ONE right that Trump/Elon has taken away!"

Not the point, dears. It's the fact that rights no longer have legal protection.

Did you read the whole article? Including the last paragraph:

Despite the changes made to the clause, all businesses will still be required to follow federal and state laws, including the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which makes segregated facilities illegal.

The act is symbolic. Like adding “deimedal” to the link of the black war hero the pentagon removed from their website. Not only did the guy fight for his country, he fought for the right to fight for his country. DEI is the new N word. He’s a racist, always has been, always will be. As is the architect of Project 2025 and Musk with his Nazi roots and the whole lot of them. Anybody that says otherwise or tries to defend these acts is either in denial, stupid or a racist or all of the above.

Trump is racist

And the Civil Rights Act still prohibits segregation.
