A whole lot of Black people started voting for the "technically worse on civil rights" party during the 1930s for reasons other than their own civil rights ... I'm sure that 1) they still supported getting equal civil rights and 2) liberal Democrats weren't complaining.

Again, this gets into the dangerous and irresponsible idea that if you don't support whichever party is more supportive of "X rights," you are an opponent of "X rights."  That's simply a tactic to demonize your opposition, and it's a simple-minded one at that.  The country would be a much better place if and when support for gay rights is seen as a bipartisan issue.
