#is because media illiterate cishet people literally refuse to believe their faves are gay

Still thinking about that time I made the mistake watching the blood ridge clip from Rickternal Friendshine on youtube (I think when adult swim first uploaded it so all the comments were fresh), and all the straight guys of the fandom had the audacity to try and claim that Rick wasn't propositioning a relationship with BP or that he totally didn't want a romantic (and likely deeply sexual) relationship with the man.

Like, my brother in christ HE SPELLED IT OUT FOR MEMORY RICK AND THE VIEWER THAT EPISODE, PLUS RICK ISN'T EVEN REMOTELY STRAIGHT, HOW IS THIS NOT CLICKING FOR YOU??

I'm glad it's mostly sensible people now that it's sorted by top comments, but I was literally so pressed by the sheer audacity of those guys that I wrote a like 10 paragraph analysis comment on the video explaining how in no uncertain terms rick was in love with BP... and STILL had someone say "ok but not to marry him"
