#love how i lost a follower because i called the pirate show a slave owner pirate show and they said i was being bad faith 😭😭 #and then when i explained my reasons and dressed down why i dont want to watch two slave owners and traders fall in love #very patiently if i do say so myself they decided to unfollow rather than confront why they think its #in their own words ok to use slave owners as characters since there were lots of slave owners before the 1900s and there still are #so what we just arent allowed to use them as characters now #like yeah buddy i dont think we should be using slave owners and traders as characters in uwu gay fantasy shows #i think its a good rule of thumb that we dont turn slave owners and traders into white gay icons that parasocial tenderqueers go to #the graves of to do some cutesy little ceremonies to honor them as if theyre these peoples blorbos from history #dw babe i blocked you so youll never see anpther post from me 💋 #like EXCUSE ME for thinking some kitchsy little comedy show shouldnt pinkwash two ACTUAL slave owners from history #like im so very sorry i told you that i want better representation for gay people than LITERAL SLAVE OWNERS #i guess im not a very good ally 🙄 #the way they were like we should give them a pass because theyre a big show that is bringing marginalized people to the public in good ways #as if we dont live in an age where we have more rep than ever before and have to give a pass to a show that decided to make two slave owners #into two little uwu smol bean gays for the tumblr communitys consumption 🙄🙄🙄 #i just know they unfollowed because i said id seen better rep and better writing elsewhere 😪 #like no way that wasnt what offended them most 😂
