And it makes no sense for someone in an apocalyptic world to decorate their dead, abandoned city with modern woke gay shit now when that political and cultural fad never would have happened in their world. You might as well put in internet memes in the show even though they never existed.

California voted on prop 8 to ban gay marriage in 2008 and Hillary and Obama both publicly did not support gay marriage. The dystopia in the show/game started five years before any of that lol. Purely the woke game and showrunners injecting their politics into the show at the expense of logic and world building.
Another bizarre criticism in a long line of them. Are you contending there wasn't a large gay community in Seattle in 2003 and that said community wouldn't have displayed pride symbols? LMAO

Enjoy your fake gay show. The last of us is nothing to the rest of us.

Yes, my suggestion for those who are this triggered by watching gay characters on TV would be to stop watching the show with a gay main character. You can avoid these dangerous and scary woke situations that way.

Seattle has a notably large LGBTQ community,[1] and the city of Seattle has protected gay and lesbian workers since the passage of the Fair Employment Practice Ordinance in 1973. Seattle's LGBTQ culture has been celebrated at Seattle Pride which began in 1977 as Gay Pride Week.[2] Gay cabaret traveled in a circuit including Seattle and San Francisco since the 1930s.[3] Seattle had gay-friendly clubs and bars since the 1930s including The Casino in Underground Seattle at Pioneer Square which allowed same-sex dancing since 1930, and upstairs from it, The Double Header, in continuous operation since 1933 or 1934 until 2015, was thought to be the oldest gay bar in the United States.[4][5]

Seattle's gay shopping and recreation area is centered on Capitol Hill with rainbow-painted crosswalks, bars, bookstores and other venues.[6][7]

In 2013, Seattle overtook San Francisco as the United States city with the most households composed of gay or lesbian couples (2.6%), and was the only U.S. city with more than 1% of the households being lesbian couples.[8]
Pride symbols in 2003 Seattle? Impossible. LMAO

Clay: “It’s an alternate reality where the world ended in 2003”

Us: “So just pretend it’s an alternate reality where gay pride symbols were ubiquitous in 2003”

Clay: “Absolutely not”

having a gay pride parade does not indicate what the show indicates

it is a falsehood

and a terrible show, a complete waste after a very good season 1

false equivalency

i didn't react this way to season 1, nor to Andor

this show is a farce

a gay farce

and the pint size lesbians have plot armor, which is the most ridiculous thing of all

enjoy your show about lesbians with a side order of violence

Wait. Clay's speaking about something he knows little about because he exists in his incel bubble wrapped in misogyny?! I never saw this coming.

Completely false. I dated a girl with a gay best friend. We hung out. He hit on me. We laughed.

Demand better from your entertainment than homosexual propaganda.

The city was not smeared with gay shit in 2003.

Seattle has literally been one of the most gay cities in America forever.

Yes, there were gay people in Seattle in 2003 and yes, gay people also displayed gay pride symbols all the way back in 2003.

It's a hilarious criticism.

Yeah and it's literally in just one little neighborhood.

Man, I ****ing despise these people. Just some of the biggest losers you'll ever run across.

The way the show portrays it, Seattle was Gay Mecca in 2003.

That is simply false.

This show has reduced a promising premise to a gay psyop.

Total destruction of Season 1. Enjoy your lesbian romcom. No one will remember this garbage.

There you go, guys. Clay knew a single gay person who hit on him, so he has a PhD in everything tangential. LMAO

You postulated that I was biased against the show because I live in a gay-free bubble.

Simply not true. Not only did I have that above experience, but I dated another girl who's friends were deep into the theater scene in KC, and several times hung out with the director of a show she was in. He was a gay married man. And an absolute hoot to be around.

I also attended a performance of the Heartland's Mens Chorus a few years ago. Everyone in the show is gay.

There is a time and a place for gay. Post-apoc zombie fiction ain't it, and it has ruined this particular iteration of the genre.

Have fun with your very mediocre, very disappointing post-apoc gay romcom. I won't be watching any more of it, and I look forward to never seeing this trash franchise surface again.
