The Roberts Court was very fucking far from the only or even the biggest contributor to improved LGBT rights in the US
Who the ever-loving fuck do you think appointed the liberal justices who were instrumental to those rulings??
How is it confusing that the only major pro-LGBT party was a major vehicle for the improvement of LGBT rights???
Okay so the Democrats managed to appoint a couple of Supreme Court Justices that brought the balance to 5-4. Not that it matters because they squandered that with the win of the Trump Administration.
You're giving the Democrats far too much credit for rights at the LGBT community fought for themselves. So what did the Democrats accomplish, instead of just not prosecuting lgbtq people? Did they do anything to help enshrine the rights of lgbtq people because I remember that being a major problem for the Democrats was that they weren't doing anything for for the lgbtq community.
It's like when people give Henry Ford the credit for the 8-hour workday and not the unions that died fighting for that right.
