back in 1993, gay marriage was a laughable joke. something that existed only in sci-fi. gotta hand it to the gay gestapo, they achieved the impossible dream. why can’t the right do the same?
Anything is possible, but I’m very skeptical for two reasons.
1) Gay marriage is about to be labeled a civil right, and once that happens we’re done. I can’t think of another individual civil right that has been explicitly and utterly stripped once recognized.
2) Liberals got this far by playing the long game. They’ve been working for decades, framing the argument to their liking and slowly working to turn people to their side. They fought long battles in the legislatures, in the courts, in churches, in popular culture and in the public sphere until they got a majority of Americans on their side. We, on the other hand, have retreated into a corner where we talk only to each other, inventing phony “in-skewed” polls and lying to ourselves about massive systemic voter fraud to convince ourselves that we’re secretly winning and therefore don’t have to do the hard work.
Until that Number Two changes, we won’t win more than a minor battle here and there, no hope of turning the tide. And we only have a limited time before Number One ends the conversation forever.
