I pity the person that thinks this only affects gay people and their marriages. The decision rests on the fundamental right to privacy and non-interference by government in private lives established decades earlier. In the Dobbs case, SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade and the right to abortions because they decided this right to privacy and non-interference does not exist. As a result, I expect gay marriage to fall.
But also in general the idea that you have a right to be left alone. That includes controls on all forms of contraception (the original case was about that), pornography, dating apps, consensual adult sex, sex toys, etc.
Longshot as in never gonna happen, or longshot as in Roe v Wade? Because this court is Calvinball manifested.
Second. Pretty sure we’ll see same sex marriage and interracial marriage overturned or otherwise infringed upon in some way.
“Interracial” is getting harder and harder to define every year.
“Lemme see, you’re 1/8th Asian, 1/4 Caucasian, 1/2 African, 1/8th Indigenous American… and you wanna marry a lady who is 1/2 Asian, 1/4 African, and 1/4 Caucasian… according to the SCOTUS2025 test, neither of you are white enough or black enough to marry anybody !”
What’s next, overturning the 13th amendment?
As a Log Cabin Republican I’m FINE with this Supreme Court OVERTURNING my Legal Marriage! After all I
Hate Myself!defend my own Death?They choose all the cases they want to hear. Why would they choose this one if not to overrule it?
Not that long of a shot. Considering that this court just ruled that government is allowed to starve children.
The court also ruled the president is a king recently so yeah, this wouldn’t be a long shot.
I think the Republican Party really got lucky with the Supreme Court legalizing gay marriage. People forget how big of an issue this was political. I bet Hillary Clinton would have won if it hadn’t been legalized.
