Ok as much as I adore The Politician, it really rubs me the wrong way the way queer characters are treated on this show

So while I have absolutely no problem with bi characters ending up in male/female relationships, the fact that all the queer women on this show ended up either with male love interests or single, especially with the fact that McAfee and Georgina both perpetuate the idea that bi-women with eventually leave the women they’re with to be with a guy is NOT a vibe

Plus I’m not gonna even start on whatever that “No Homo” bullshit thing was with Payton and River (probably some shitty ass biphobic way of rationalizing Payton and Alices little nuclear family by invalidating Payton’s only mlm relationship because CLEARLY he’s straight guys, he’s not gay, and there’s OBVIOUSLY no middle ground between the two)

I also really hate the way polyamorous relationships were depicted in season 2 as something that can never actually work out and no one will ever be genuinely happy unless they leave the polyam relationship to be in a “normal” relationship (adding to the list of biphobic shit this show did when they claimed that one of Dede’s partners was “basically gay” once they split up)
