I think acting like heated rivalry is cringe and unimportant is in and of itself cringe and i think acting like you're cool for not watching a tv show is even cringier
the popularity of the show forcing an extremely conservative sports league to talk about gay issues en masse + the celebration of gay love and gay sex in a political moment where both of those things are increasingly (once again) under attack in a very public way is cool and i won't be made to pretend otherwise
