      I also think all the activists and “NGOs” that coddled up to the Dem establishment have to take some blame. This was a terrible strategy from the beginning, to get in bed with the Democrat-NGO-media complex to try find an easy way out in obtaining social progress. Even ignoring all the ethical concerns and how this whole strategy backfired with pink washing, LGBT capitalism, a large increase in anti LGBT attitudes, transgender healthcare bans, etc, on a pure mathematical level it means that in order for LGBT people to have rights, Democrats have to win every election. A mathematical impossibility.

      If you’re going to team up with the Dems at least ensure that you have some guarantees that they’ll pass some kind of permanent/hard to remove human rights protections/legislation. Selling out to the Dems and getting this in return is embarrassing and undignified.
