That paragraph combined with this one is truly baffling:

I can think of a hundred issues more pressing to the American public than the existence of same-sex marriage: inflation, the cost of healthcare, national security, the war in Gaza — the list goes on.

I was fine with centering the core of my political philosophy on issues that only impact a small amount of people until the party I aligned myself with started targeting a group I belong to. Now I want to talk about how there are more important things to focus on.

Bitch please, there were always more important things to focus on but you didn't care until the hate stopped primarily originating from you and started being directed at you.
