These days, lots of demographics will start to agree.
Who wouldn't?
"If you want to be a faggot, check this box"
I would be a villain too if I had to choose either that or be a part of the Alphabet Mafia. Gays don’t even want to be in it, too.
They have a point, you know.
I guess they're just going by modern Hollywood ideology where you cannot portray select minorities as bad or evil.
No matter how often they’re portrayed that way in real life.
I think he's asking "would you rather be a gay hero or a straight villain?"
Even without the gay factor, modern heroes are so one dimensional and boring that honestly I'd much rather be a villain anyway. I can deliver thought-provoking monologues that make the audience wonder who the real bad guy is: me, or society?
And then I'll die some wacky ironic death like being turned into ice cream or some weird shit.
Any Muslim knows that a Muslim who takes their entire holy text as unalterable truth WOULD be considered a villain by the west. There could definitely be arguments made within their sect whether or not that's a bad thing, but there isn't an argument that they'd look like heroes. Of course, while much, MUCH more common than a Christian who takes their entire holy text as unalterable truth, there's still large segments of the Muslim population that don't... But given the choices offered, of that group I could see many of them saying they would want accurate and fair representation over mocking and blasphemeous false representation, even if it relegated their representation to a "villain" role.
Because even just the mildly religious aren't huge fans of blasphemy.
What's the difference?
Ha, underrated comment! LGBT are villainous/terrorists and terrorists are faggots.
