Hallmark channel alternative is 100% not gay

He was keeping those secrets because he loved her so much that it scared him!! And he didn't know how to express himself to her!! He's a good man!!!!!

 

Those all sound like things our favorite college football team would do.
Does that mean....? Oh no!!!!

 

“Sounds like…” Yes, this is how the disguise works.

 

Well, why can't you?

 

As usual, Kareem has the most humane, cogent take. I will limit to 4 paragraphs but recommend the whole observation, one part of one of his two weekly Substack newsletters


My Take: I do not doubt for one second that Bure believes she is doing good. I do not doubt she feels love for all the groups she professes to love. Nor does her company have a legal obligation to be inclusive. However, she does not have the moral high ground she thinks she does. She is not a victim of “the toxic climate in our culture right now”—she is an unwitting promoter and enabler of that toxicity.

To be clear, I don’t think she should be forced into diversity—that should be her company’s choice, even though to reject diversity, which is meant to bring all people together, is an immoral choice. Hiding behind her narrow interpretation of Christianity—which many Christians would reject—is not a justification.

Had her company just gone about churning out their Hallmark-style by-the-numbers Christmas movies (which, by the way, I think are sometimes fun and even touching), it would have taken awhile for the audience to catch on to their exclusivity. But she boldly wanted to make it clear that gays were not part of their White Christmas world. Though she is well within her rights to make that call, others are within theirs to reject that business model. That is not “cancelling,” it’s making a consumer choice.

Although she professes to love all groups—includingLGBTQ+—it is not really a show of love to deliberately exclude them, which is an announcement that they are not a welcomed part of your Christmas community. That is the anti-Christmas spirit. It is also the same rationalization that many in the entertainment businesses used to keep Black, Latinx, and Asian characters out of shows.

There is always the happily married sister coming home for Christmas that annoys the single star of the show and the random star guy who helped fix a flat or something.

At some point they end up in a sleigh in the snow, because... Ya know... thats normal.

HATE those movies. My wife calls them revenge for all the football and hockey I watch during the Holidays
