Realistically, would the overturning of Obergefell have undone any of the moral decay?

I get it, it would’ve been a righteous victory for conservatives and Christians, and I wouldn’t have been opposed to an overruling.

But the inconvenient truth is that it would have absolutely resulted in even more radicalization than we saw with Roe and a golden propaganda angle for the midterm cycle and potentially 2028.

I despise the “mob rule” factor of hyper polarized/publicized judicial proceedings, I just don’t see it as a net positive being that the damage it caused has been done and at this point it is indisputably more preferential to work on mending the cultural damage it caused rather than the legal impetus.

Long story short, this was not the hill to die on. And I would much rather see elevation of suits related to the 2020 election rather than something that has already run its course culturally and is actively being fought back on.

Obergerfell was what led to the slippery slope

You cannot allow that to go unheard or unchallenged man. The throwing out of any relevant cases because of radicalized judges (or at best, the hyper polarization surrounding the matter) is absolutely inexcusable in this country in which every other type of litigation runs wild.

Or, you know, lack of evidence

I agree. But an overturning doesn’t situate us back at the top of the slope. More so sets off an avalanche to reset the digging out of it we’ve already done.

Serious question, can evidence be presented in a case that has yet to be heard?

About the cases that are out there. I’m sure you could probably cherry pick the ones that fit the agenda though.

I mean they damn near all lost in aggressive fashion by judges on both sides of the aisle, wouldn’t take much cherry picking

But you knew that

Again, they went unheard. They were not “lost”.

You’re convinced that federal judges who have sought every opportunity to give Trump the finger would rule with impartiality? Especially in the districts that they were hand picked for, which just so happened to be where the frickery occurred and was being challenged.

Thrown out due to lack of evidence =\= “unheard”


Some of the judges who did this were literally appointed by Trump

I think you have read too many propaganda headlines.
