just saw a meme that said "it's june which means it's illegal to be straight"
this is all in good fun and understood as such
but at the bottom, blending into the background, this version said, "asexuals are OK but y'all are on thin fucking ice"
and that is not in good fun. or acceptable

for those who don't know, a lot of ace people are targeted with "corrective rape" not only in heterosexual contexts but within the queer community where the assumption is perversely that the problem was they just haven't had the right queer sexual experience yet and need it foisted on them (which is rape)

Now, this is a lot more fucking complicated than we're going to get into in this meme, but please do some reading so you don't repeat these sort of ideas that lead to horrendous actual experiences for actual people.

Holy fuck Ariel Schrag and Rhys Ernst, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?
I'm not even counting the racism ("weird asian pussy", lots of negative stuff about black folks), descriptions of butches and masculine women as "ugly" and descriptions of trans bodies as "freaky" and "disgusting".
And this shit is marketed as a comedy.
