"Why is it that EVERY TIME States' Rights are invoked, it's to protect bigory?

"I could totally get behind States' Rights if it meant I was actually supporting real freedom, but if you argue that States' Rights mean that more people are less free and less equal? (and that seems to be the case EVERY TIME)"

Dog whistles. I didn't see anyone say "states rights" about Massachusetts v. United States, which cited the Tenth Amendment to say Congress didn't get to tell Massachusetts that same-sex marriages in the commonwealth didn't count under federal law. (I almost wish they had used that phrase, it might have made a few bigots' heads explode.)
