While acknowledging the magnitude of the case seems unproblematic, identifying its impact and its beneficiaries is a less straightforward task. In this contribution, I raise questions from a critical queer perspective while centering on the concept of a value-based European society. I argue that the Court’s underdeveloped elaboration on the politics of values eschews material structures of oppression and exploitation and thus risks foreclosing actual transformative legal interventions.
