"It's just two people getting married."
"They're not going to indoctrinate your kids."
"This doesn't affect you personally."

You've heard all these lines before.

But here's the thing: Every single conservative fear about gay marriage came true.

We'll show you. (1/14) 🧵

1: Gay marriage is a slippery slope.

For years, when conservatives worried that gay marriage could lead to things like polyamory or polygamy, the Left scoffed.

LGBT outlets like The Advocate regularly "debunked" the claim with stories like this: (2/14)

Here are some headlines from that very same outlet, just a few years later.

"Polyamory seems suddenly to be everywhere — and very present in the public consciousness," they reported just one year after they published the piece above.

Their words, not ours! (3/14)

2: Religious liberty will be harmed.

In 2015, Marco Rubio warned that "we are at the water’s edge of the argument that mainstream Christian teaching is hate speech." He was roundly mocked by liberals.

The Daily Beast accused him of a "pathetic persecution complex." (4/14)

But Rubio was obviously correct. Almost immediately after the Left won on gay marriage, they launched a coordinated campaign to persecute religious Americans who still believed in the traditional definition of marriage.

And in many cases, the courts...just let them do it. (5/14)

The victims of this campaign are real people, with real names and faces. Jack Phillips, a Christian baker in Colorado, politely refused to custom-bake a cake endorsing gay marriage. As a result, he's been in court for more than a decade, and has lost 40% of his business. (6/14)

3: Christian institutions will be persecuted for their beliefs.

After years of mocking Christians who worried they would lose their rights, the Left turned on a dime.

Both of these headlines were published less than 72 hours after gay marriage was legalized nationwide. (7/14)

This one was obvious from the very beginning.

During the arguments for Obergefell, the 2015 Supreme Court case that legalized gay marriage, Obama's solicitor general was forced to admit that the ruling could cause Christian institutions to lose their tax-exempt status. (8/14)

4: They're coming for your kids.

This, too, was dismissed as a "trope."

In the wake of Obergefell, Media Matters warned journalists not to cite "debunked horror stories" such as the idea that "public schools will be forced to teach children about same-sex marriage." (9/14)

...do we really even have to explain why conservatives were right about this one? (10/14)

5: The LGBT movement will only become more radical.

Many LGBT activists sought to frame gay marriage in moderate terms. "Gay couples just want to be like us," they told us.

Some even made a "conservative case" for gay marriage. (Sound familiar?) (11/14)

But marriage was only ever a stepping stone on the path to an even more fundamental war. After destroying "gender roles," the Left moved on to the very concept of gender.

With transgenderism, the Left has now arrived at the final frontier: Biological distinction itself. (12/14)

Today, the Left seeks to not only destroy the idea of differences between men and women, but to artificially dismantle the structural evidence that those distinctions ever existed at all — evidence that is written into the basic composition of the human body itself. (13/14)

6: It was never about "tolerance" and "inclusion." It was about fundamentally transforming America.

We made a video about this earlier this month, which we'd recommend to all of you. We'll let it speak for itself. (14/14)
