New survey suggests decline has strong correlation between Christian nationalism and opposition to inclusive policies
Public support for same-sex marriage and nondiscrimination protections for LGBTQ+ Americans has fallen, even as the overall share remains high, according to new findings by the nonpartisan Public Religion Research Institute.
Broad majorities of Americans, regardless of political party or faith, continue to support LGBTQ+ rights and protections, the analysis found. But after years of rising public support, the decline is notable, said Melissa Deckman, CEO of the PRRI.
The survey analyzed Americans’ attitudes toward LGBTQ+ rights across three policies: same-sex marriage, nondiscrimination protections and religion-based service refusals. It found support for all three measures had softened for the first time since the PRRI began tracking views of the issues nearly a decade ago.
While the “vast majority of Americans continue to endorse protections for LGBTQ Americans”, Deckman said the results may serve as a “warning sign” for those working to safeguard the rights of LGBTQ+ Americans amid a conservative legislative and legal effort to erode them.

Like I would click the link of someone who feels it’s appropriate to lie to me about what’s in my own mind.
Therein lays the peril of not being honest with yourself… A gadfly like myself inevitably comes along, and articulates what you’ve been hinting around at, in Plain Language
Why you believe gaslighting me about what is in my own mind will work, I don’t know. But do continue, “gadfly.”
A gadfly is preferable to a Gad Saad. Consider yourself blessed
I have no idea what you’re talking about. Is this some weird new attempt at lying or gaslighting?
Jonah Hill has spurred an epidemic of misusing that term. “Gaslighting”, that is
Once again, I have no idea what you’re talking about, and since you won’t answer any questions, I doubt I’ll ever know.
