“yuri on ice isn’t progressive because it doesn’t represent the homophobia that plagues same sex couples-” oh I’m sorry I forgot that I loved to be reminded that the world fucking hates me, thanks for reminding me that all lgbt media needs to show bigotry to be good you ass!!
THIS THIS THIS THIS!
I’ve seen people critisise the show specifically because of this point which is completely the opposite of what the show has been trying to be.This show was meant to be - as pointed out by either kubo or sayo I don’t remember - a safe haven for everyone. The show purposely avoided homophobia because again it is meant to be an enjoyable trip, not a reality check.
An aspect of the show that I very much love is that the relationship between Viktor and Yuuri is normalized. No one bats an eyelash at their affection. “we shouldn’t do this we’re both men!!” or “aren’t you both guys?? You shouldn’t be doing this!!” isn’t a thing in this show. They are both men yet neither of them nor anyone else gives a single fuck about that fact. They’re just in love, period.
It makes people of the LGBTQ community feel safe and happy, to see such positive representation where homophobia is not an issue. It is an issue indeed, but maybe for just 20 minutes we’d like to forget that fact.
TLDR; no one from the lgbt community wants to hear ur bs about this show not showing homophobia.

I love how it’s basically a plot point on The Borgias that everyone wants to bang Cesare and he’s got a reputation for being good in bed.

First they came for the scientists…
And the National Parks Services said, “lol, no” and went rogue and we were all like, “I was not expecting the park rangers to lead the resistance, none of the dystopian novels I read prepared me for this but cool.”

i’m loving all this violent response to nazis stuff that’s going around but i also want to say like be careful out there because not all nazis are fucking clowns like richard spencer. most of em carry weapons and will not hesitate to cut your ass up and leave you dying in a dumpster. if you don’t know how to fight, don’t take one on without backup. and even if you do know how to fight, watch yourself. i don’t want to see any of you getting killed

WE NEED 3 SENATORS TO CHANGE THEIR VOTES TO PREVENT DeVos FROM BEING CONFIRMED!!!
The vote to confirm Betsy DeVos as Sec of Education was delayed. The hearing of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions will now be held at 10 a.m. Jan. 31, according to an advisory from the committee.
And now to act (esp my ME, GA, NC and SC friends)! Betsy DeVos is up for confirmation as U.S. Education Secretary, and many, many educators have expressed strongly that she is not qualified to ensure quality education in this country.Please consider calling one of the following Republican Senators (key in the confirmation vote) to express your opinion on the appointment. At least 3 of these need to be convinced in order to block DeVos’ nomination. Don’t email. Don’t tweet. Don’t complain on Facebook. Call them!
