[quote=@Rica] This time someone took an assault rifle and a Glock and shot up a gay night club on Latino Night in Orlando. 50 people dead and 53 people injured. They're related. I'm sorry but the fact that queer characters are three times more likely to die in media despite the fact there are so few queer characters is a problem. We're treated as disposable and then people act shocked when someone acts like it in reality. They are related whether anyone wants to admit it or not. We're sick of being killed in both fantasy and reality. Stop. Killing. Us. [/quote] I'm a white dude, we die all the time in movies or whatever. If anything, the straight white dudes would be your go to disposable peeps because nobody's going to bitch and moan about it. I doubt the statistic you're pulling is very true or could be misinterpreted, but I'm open to see sources that explain it. And unless the media presented centers around gay life (a valid genre worth exploring), then I wouldn't really expect there to be a whole ton of gays. Just like how I'm not mad that there's an underrepresentation of Armenians in the media because I know there's a grand total of like five of us. And whenever they kill off an Armenian I'm sure that jumps the statistic to like 100% of Armenians on TV are killed (because there's like one), there's still no giant conspiracy to kill all my people. We've been there, done that already. Orlando was motivated by a lot of stuff, apparently he pretty much hated everyone (equal opportunity hater) and was motivated by Daesh's shenanigans. Now, that's true that *they* have an active oppression against homosexuality, seeing as they're giving gay folk one way tickets off of Raqqa's rooftops, but the Islamic State's view on homosexuality isn't exactly representative of the West's. So no, the answer is that there's no real, major conspiracy to kill all the gays. Chill the shit out, man.
