The fact that HBO didn't cast Ellen Page as Ellie proves that they are all ageist, homophobic, misogynist, and transphobic! They are discriminating against her by saying she can't be allowed to play as a lesbian just because she's a straight man now, and furthermore, they're erasing her identity by refusing to acknowledge her lived experience for the time she identified as a lesbian, which as we all know, is all it takes to qualify as anything!
