If you read the additional posts that are linked, the assertion is made that most, or a substantial portion, of the pressure against Eich actually came from heterosexual young activists who fancy themselves as progressive and enlightened.
Sullivan's comments, which I agree with, are aimed at the "gay rights movement." One doesn't have to be gay to be part of the gay rights movement."

But this is different. Opposing gay marriage in America today is not akin to opposing tax hikes or even the war in Afghanistan. It’s more akin to opposing interracial marriage: It bespeaks a conviction that some people do not deserve the same basic rights as others.
