Bruh lots of cis white gay men got the shit kicked out of them at stonewall I get the police joke but don't you think it's kind of in poor taste?
You do know that this is in direct reference to the upcoming Stonewall movie in which they are explicitly ignoring history in favour of casting the “hero” of the Stonewall riot as a cis white man right? This is about mainstream media choosing to INVENT a character who is the antithesis of the actual historical figure rather than representing her. And that is a big deal. Because if the movie is allowed to gain traction amongst the straight, cis, and/or white people who go to see it, who share it with the younger generation, who use it as some kind of educational “this is a movie everyone should see!”, who may very well argue it should get an Oscar, it represents a deliberate erasure of lgbtq+ history.
