See, the Republicans can say the exact same thing about this as above: “the work from home ban is not meant to spite anyone: it is a legitimate attempt to increase the low productivity of federal employees, regardless of whether you, as an opponent, don’t believe it will be effective”. You exhibit a typical liberal blind spot of “everything we do is for the noble purpose, and if it doesn’t achieve the stated goal, well, too bad, it was a good will attempt, whereas all our opponents do is to oppress and spite their opponents, and their reasons are purely pretextual”. This is wrong and false.

If you cannot recognize that knowingly instituting and maintaining laws that clearly and obviously do not do anything for the expressly stated goal, but instead attack constitutional rights of the opponents, I have zero hope of achieving any sort of shared compromise and understanding.
