It reminds me of how quickly abortion became normalized after the Roe v Wade decision. Did you know that pre-Roe v Wade, abortion was only legal without extenuating circumstances (threat to mother's life, rape, incest) in five states? Quite the cultural shift after the Supreme Court forced that one through.
Same for gay marriage. They ran four consecutive referendums in Maine before it was finally pushed through. Then once Maine fell the rest fell in line within a few years. Gay marriage was very unpopular with normies as late as the early 2000s, but by 2010 the media declared the public debate to be over.
