A nine-day old greenhorn account is here telling us that LGBTQ+ rights are not only a social good, but the pillar of democracy, and if someone disagrees, they are fundamentally antidemocratic?
I'm sorry, but I think you're confusing liberalism with democracy. In a liberal democracy, we usually balance the two, by placing some realm of basic human and constitutional rights outside the realm of democratic political contestation. To say that submitting certain questions to the voters is undemocratic is a contradiction in terms.
