'there are bigger issues'
yes, there are. Gay activists who fight for marriage are a bit ridiculous, considering that homophobia is still very existant; heteronormativity is an insidious beast that affects every queer every day everywhere; and marriage itself is hardly something we should be aiming to align ourselves with.
But...we should align ourselves with equality as a means to an end.
It takes the same time to vote yes as no, and you're spending as much time commenting on how this issue is wasting it as you would if you were speaking on its merits or problems.
