I'm not really sure about this post, to me both of these points seem... flawed. (It's about that baker vs same sex people case, so nothing outrageous)

Oh, I can imagine all three of those people exist. But it is pandering to create something designed to appeal to one specific person. Not only that, it's pandering to a market that can't sustain any form of artistic output.

All of these 'I just want to see meeeeeeeee' representation morons don't realise how solipsistic they sound, especially when they keep piling on the identities they need to see represented in media. Not even needing one trait, like skin colour or sexuality, but that specific combination they identify as this moment.

It's bullshit, just as much as the reeeeeing about representation also is always about the biggest things in the media. They never go looking for what they claim they want - it has to be forcibly inserted into whatever popular thing they're already into. For all they say representation matters to them, they're very reluctant to actually look for it. Or acknowledge it when it's not in, say, the MCU or Harry Potter.

@Oscar Wildean - AFAIK, one of Oz's latest tweets on that topic was,

If there is no difference between a straight character and a gay character, what is a writer or performer to do when a gay character is called for? Just not address the gayness? But if gayness is not addressed at all, then what is the value of having a gay character in the show?

And that was a line no one managed to find anything to reply. "Calling a chicken a duck won't make it quack", I guess. Tumblrinas 'claiming' characters as gay won't crank the characters' (nonexistant) hormones to eleven, either. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
