Politicians and other public figures who dissented about allowing interracial marriage or ending segregated schools had to repent or be de-platformed long ago.

The right is merely trying to hold its ground in the culture war.  The left is trying to change stuff.  The right wins when they can show that society, as it is, is only making rational and fair distinctions.  The left wins when they make society seem unfair or bigoted.

The marijuana wars still aren't over.  The gay wars have ended with near total victory for the left; conversion therapy is banned for kids in many areas.  The transgender wars are probably bogged down for a while.  I predict a bit of retrogression, where biological males will no longer compete in women's sports, but it's far from over.  There is retrogression on the abortion front, but, that war may never end.  

In my opinion, other than drug laws, it's pretty dumb to change your vote over this stuff.  We seem to elect congressmen and presidents who say the right things, but, the Court decisions don't seem to change.

Good point, but how is not allowing biological males (bigger and stronger, no matter how much one "identifies") to compete against biological females in sports considered "retrogression"? It's downright unfair.
