# YOUR FAVE IS PROBLEMATIC: REAL LIFE # ENGAGES IN THE BURY YOUR GAYS TROPE (via @roosebaldton)

lmfao ‘none of the straight characters died’ newsflash roger taylor brian may and john deacon are real ppl and they’re all not deceased but okay then

I can’t believe this is the swamp of idiocy we’re living in.

Wait, I thought the film wasn’t covering the AIDS crisis? That’s why I thought a lot of people were (still very inappropriately) calling for a boycott. So do we want Freddie’s death to be shown in the film or not?

ITS 👏 NOT 👏 A 👏 TROPE 👏 IF 👏 IT 👏 ACTUALLY 👏 HAPPENED 👏 WE 👏 ARE 👏 PEOPLE 👏 NOT 👏 STORIES
