I think it was meant more that this decision and this right for LGBTQ to get married should have been made ages ago. As a society, we're continuing to spend resources fighting amongst ourselves to combat bigotry, anti-intellectualism, etc. In an ideal world, we'd have stomped all these out already and would be working together towards the future. Sadly, we don't live in an ideal world, so we must expend these resources and effort fighting injustice and inequality.
