There are a whole bunch of of people in an uproar because Glee stole a musician’s cover of … what?  Baby Got Back or something of the sort?

.

And I’ve seen posts from people saying “this is the last straw”, “I’m not watching anymore”, “they’ve gone too far”.

.

But where were you all through all the bullying by Sue?  Through the repeated misogyny, the fatphobia… the transphobia? 

.

I’m not denying it was a shit move to “steal” someone’s music without credit.  But it’s certainly not the most problematic or shitty thing that Glee and those involved have done.

.

This show is repeatedly oppressive to its minority characters (be they poc, or queer, or trans or fat or what have you)- with little or no recrimination or consequence to the oppressors.  

.

Where was all of your outrage then?
