Maybe not internalized homophobia but at minimum it’s just kind of annoying and gives me bad vibes

Plenty of queer people hated on Guardian Spice when it came out because it was the hip new thing, but the whole trend of hating on it (despite it being a legitimately terrible show otherwise) was only really fueled by homophobia in the first place, regardless of what those who jumped on the train afterward believed. Same exact vibes I’ve gotten about picrew hate, furry hate, everything.

Sorry fam, I have no idea what this is aside from the brief Google search I just did and even less idea what the discourse around it is

All I know is that whenever I see a Picrew avi, I'm likely to see the most dogshit take next to it (see above). It's not that I think it's like cringe in itself or whatever. Anecdotal evidence to be sure, but there you have it.

And what's your point? (Some) queer people like them? So what? A lot of queer people like Pete Buttigieg and being racist on Grindr

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
