Why would I want to criticise diversity? Steven Universe has various relationships which are gay by human standards, but if you look deeper and acknowledge that gender is a social construct, are straight. That’s novel and unique and interesting and different. Why would I criticise such interesting ideas that make the show feel richer? I don’t understand your need to categorise my analysis of the show as joyless. There’s lots of joy in it. It’s cool!
SU is great! So of course I believe you have joy in it
I think the takeaway here is that your intent got lost in your delivery. Personally, I find it helpful to come back to a thread I was downvoted in a week or two after the fact when im less invested and more objective. Distance can help me understand why others disagreed. Respectfully, I think you should consider doing simmiliar. These sort of lore analysis makes sense in a SU focused place, but here and now your original comment reads like homophonia. Nit trying g to attack you, but inforn you how it comes across.
And that’s why Ruby and Sapphire belong here, because they’re ostracised for who they love, and it doesn’t really matter what the justification for the oppression is
Can you explain how this excerpt from my original comment reads as homophobic?
