I love Dr. Sowell. One of my top 3 influences in my political world.

He is right, here, sort of. It is precisely that self indulgence of ego that has prevented many courts from caving to political correctness. It couldn’t rationally be argued that judges are refusing to call parties before the court by their preferred pronouns because they are taking their ego out of it. It is precisely because nobody is gonna tell that judge how to run his court room but him that we get those decisions. And that is 100% ego.
