What do you mean?

If I understood you correctly, it would be something like (as rhetorical example) liberals wanting the government to take action in ensuring same sex marriage even if that goes against the cultural beliefs of the majority?

My rebuttal ,if I understood you, would be to point at the difference between a democracy and a dictatorship of the masses.

You hopefully can't legalize lynching in a liberal democracy even going by their original intent, which includes human rights and civil liberties.
