  • LGBT people are something like 10-20% of the population.

    It appears to be 5.5% of the population.

    The reason studios put LGBT content in movies and games is that a lot of people in the real world, aka their customers, are LGBT.

    If their population were small, disproportionate representation can still have a positive impact for awareness. That being said, I think a big reason for the representation is the percentage of people in the arts that is LGBT is greater than the general population. It would be tough making content and looking in the eyes of so many creatives while not including characters like them in stories.

    Side note:

    Maybe it’s not too realistic to have a bunch of out queer characters in a drama set in Elizabethan England.

    All the recent period pieces I’ve seen have LGBT characters. I’m going to use this as a moment to advertise My Lady Jane. It’s not an entirely accurate depiction of the story of Lady Jane Grey (for obvious reasons), but it was an entertaining show.



  • That might be your read, but it’s not correct. This guy does not rationalize things the same way you would. Here are all the parts of his statement that should convince you.

    Try peaceful means first, but be prepared to fight to get the Dems out of the fed government and military by any means necessary.

    Stop obsessing over diversity. We are all diverse and DEI is a cancer. Thankfully we rejected the DEI candidate and will have a real President instead of Weekend at Bernie’s.

    Rally around the Trump, Musk, Kennedy, and ride this wave to the highest hegemony for all Americans
