You think you are saying that there is a "dismantling of our rights" but this is about the tension between (what people might perceive to be their) rights.
E.g. Ted has a right to be gay. Bill thinks he has a right to employ who he wants. Ted works for Bill. Bill hates gays and doesn't want them working for him.
It works for all of these cases. This legislation is the state coming down on the side of some rights (freedom from discrimination on the basis of personal characteristics, freedom of thought, freedom of religion) instead of others.
