Well you'll forgive me for not noticing, usually when this sort of thing happens, the first people to go "democracy lost" are religious nutters or ridiculous dudebros.

Why would you assume something like that? Are dissenting opinions forbidden? This is a serious issue in the LGBT community: we claim to be open-minded, but anyone who disagrees with the leftist hivemind is bullied and attacked with ad hominems and all other sorts of fallacies. We conservative gays do exist, you know?

I can never tell why people like Slade go to this much effort, tbh.

Because the Constitution matters.

I mean I'm a pretty miserable bloke but even I wouldn't look at a change that's had no negative impact

It sets a horrible precedent.

and made millions of people happy

And made millions of people unhappy.

and try to find a way to make it seem like a major defeat for the world.

Undermining the Constitution, the States, and the People is a major defeat for US citizens, yes.

Is it just an extremely narrow and incorrect reading of a book written nearly 2000 years old that drives them, or is it simply a perverse wish to deny the most important person in another person's life hospital visitation rights?

Marriage is not necessary to achieve visitation rights, merely sufficient.

And the constitution? Really? You're still clinging to that as an excuse? A bill written more than 200 years ago by a bunch of slave-owning Englishmen

Lol, spot the European.

whose wishes, as displayed in it, would be disrespected more by the fact that come next year, the head of state can have been 3 different members of the same wealthy, established family, the Bushes? So maybe instead of trying to win a bureacratic victory over loving couples, you should instead do something about the hereditary monarchy that your country has become?

I find it amusing that you mention the Bushes but not the Clintons. Either way, I have yet to hear a compelling argument as to why this is so evil. Should there be a familial diversity quota for the office of President?

Or the massive racial issues?

Like what?

Or the fact that half of your people still think that the Confederate flag is a symbol of American pride and not willingness to tear a nation apart because you're too lazy to do any work yourself and you think skin colour is a valid excuse to treat people like property?

Censorship and whitewashing of history is never okay.

Well you'll forgive me for not noticing, usually when this sort of thing happens, the first people to go "democracy lost" are religious nutters or ridiculous dudebros.

The dissenting justices are neither of those things. But you haven't read their opinions, have you?

Also, all this massive defeat for democracy did was give room for people's partners to be given rights like heterosexual couples do,

It sets a precedent that undermines peoples' right to representation. Do you not know what a precedent is?

if you wanna talk about a defeat for democracy talk about how a small oligarchy decides which member of a basically aristocratic family you get to choose to drone strike Arabs in next year's election.

The electoral college isn't exactly a "small oligarchy".

Do as you preach.


@Slade
You know what? Keep the way you think, it will do you only good to you, after all, your concept of democracy is so thin and literal, is not like hermeneutics exist or anything, right?

Do you have an argument, or even a response to my arguments, or are you just going to toss out more words that you don't understand?
