Thinly veiled racism in the queer community, the majority of queer spaces out there are white centered, and don’t even get me started on the media. Hester rivalries, boots, that mf love Simon crap, Hollywood loves gay white people

And that’s your excuse? Because People are upset about seeing gay people of color on screen? Who cares? People are ALWAYS upset about seeing any gay people on screen, the least you can do is make some of them black. And when has appealing to an international audience EVER meant making all of the characters white??

I got that and it’s still a stupid statement. Yall like to spread about this delusion that white people are more accepting of queer people, yall have the same problems with homophobia as any other, it’s not specific to any race or ethnicity. Quit lying to yourselves.

If that's the case then why are so many lgbtq movies banned in third world countries?

And the NHL has been ridiculously homophobic for years. Why do yall act like gay marriage wasn’t legalized in this country 11 years ago, and trans people don’t even have all the rights they deserve yet

I would say that’s more due to the country’s culture and government than race?? Those movies would get banned there regardless of the race of the gay character.

Exactly, it’s an American organization, and there are tons just like it. Just because America doesn’t murder people or ban films because of their affiliation with the queer community doesn’t mean they’re not just as hateful as any other country, not murdering someone for being gay is literally the bare minimum

Saudi Arabia bans white lgbt shit just the same as non-white lgbt shit. They ban the straight shit too. That’s not a valid reason for Hollywood to never make queer poc love stories
