I know some people want to cancel #PND already because of the biphobia portrayal. But that’s a real thing that people really feel. And yes, it’s problematic. But why cancel a show for portraying a flawed person? Flawed people exist. It’s a chance to tell that story. 1/ https://twitter.com/siakingg/status/1319563241647788032
It’s a chance to engage in a dialogue we often avoid in the LGBT+ community. And that’s what I find problematic about cancel culture. They’d rather avoid conflict than address it. #PearlNextDoor is written by lesbian writer and she’s gong to share her communities struggles. 2/
Let’s engage rather than flee. In order to truly stand in solidarity with each other we have to confront that which divides us. Being triggered and running away from the challenge solves nothing. I trust TIFC to tell great stories that push us further #PearlNextDoor 3/
You can see they’ve done their work and they take this seriously. They know their art matters and the stories they tell have meaning. Thank you TIFC for always challenging and inspiring us. #PearlNextDoor
