people critizing those of us upest about the finale and claiming that people dont have media literacy are conveniently forgetting the fact that the creators have been pedaling this show as groundbreaking for the queer community since day one (and it WAS). so when youre attempting to pioneer a genre/theme (in this case, queer love) it's perfectly reasonable for people to have critique of how things are handled. hell, i happen to think there are plenty of ways Izzy could have had a gratifying death in the show. But thats not what happened. Let people have their feelings about. Just block people if you dont like their take, it's not that hard. But maybe take a moment to think about why people are upset.

#ofmd season 2 #ofmd spoilers #izzy hands #fandom wank #its just so frustrating how nasty people are being to each other about it #unsurprising cause its fandom and fandom is nothimg if not volatile but god is it disappointing #anyway if people really wanna be jackasses about media literacy im happy to dust off my bfa in theatre and get down to business #ive been studying storytelling for years so i feel pretty confident in my judgement when i say s2 finale was poorly written #media literacy is becoming tumblrs new overused turn of phrase
