I feel like whenever television shows kill blacks/gays/women everyone gets all up in arms about oppression and meanwhile the writers are just like: "Uhhhh, they died for a plot same as anyone else?"

Dead dudes are the same, I highly doubt there's some sort of evil agenda.

Unless this is about Orlando in which case that's a whole other can of worms that can't be boiled down to "Emegherd straight people hate gays!!!" amd you're sorely mistaken if you think that's the case.
