Most of the LGBTQ people think this is a "Look, they support us!" thing.This isn't even gay by DC comics standards
Not really. I try telling some of my more woke friends, DC will write whatever shit they need to write to appeal to younger demographics, comic sales have been on a nosedive for a decade now. If Al-Qaeda was popular and culturally accepted to some marginal degree with 16-30 year olds, Simon Baz (Muslim Green Lantern) would be blowing up government buildings on every issue. The only colour they give a fuck about is green.
This ideological stuff and it's cultural impact has placed DC in a precarious position, though. Ezra is clearly mentally unstable but they can't afford to cancel his Flash movies, if it isn't because they've put too much money into it it's because they're aware he's crazy enough to start a lawsuit on the basis of discrimination. Despite his behavior justifying termination, the court of public opinion would scorch their sales. The best thing they can do is just run out his contract and never contact him again.
