Obviously, but calling gay rights a "battle already won" when the third largest country in the world by population still has one of its two major political parties fighting tooth-and-claw on the issue seems premature.

What do the 2 largest countries by population do?

Sadly, it's not solved in the rest of the world either.

LGBT rights in Poland and Russia are in dire straits. In Chechnya, I think they still deport gay people. In far too many countries, homosexuality is still illegal. Even in the Western world, growing up gay or trans often is associated with a measurably higher level of stress.

Of course, it got better, but it's still not over.

OK. It's missing my point, though. Gay rights is a bad example in some parts of the world, clearly. But my point was these people are usually vocal about issues that aren't really controversial.
