The Trump-nominated conservative justice accused the state of Colorado of having subjected baker Jack Phillips to a 're-education program.'
"The fact that these justices think this is an issue to make such comments about or treat lightheartedly shows that they are crafting law around ideology," commented another on the social media app.
"Sickening from a SC Justice. As tedious as these trainings are, most of us benefit from definitions and examples - to better understand when we are either crossing a line that puts ourself/employer at risk, or when we are being mistreated ourself. 'Re-education' is insulting," wrote another user.
In 2018, the Supreme Court ruled 7-2 in favor of Phillips, saying that the Colorado Civil Rights Commission did not employ religious neutrality and thus violated the baker's rights to free exercise. Gorsuch was among the majority of justices in favor of reverting the Commission's initial decision on the case of the Colorado baker.
