I don’t care for the gay/lesbian scenes but overall the show has been really good, I enjoy apocalyptic end of the world books, movies, and TV shows.
But are the gay/lesbian scenes any more or less shocking than scenes of being beheaded as in Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon ??
In both Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon they had incest scenes between brother/sister and 1st cousins, etc.
The violence of the Sopranos wasn’t child’s play.
Even broadcast network shows have had gay/lesbian scenes, the show Nashville about country music had a number of gay scenes so did the show The Walking Dead.
The point is, The Last of Us isn’t breaking new ground, quite a few other really popular shows on HBO and other broadcast channels have had equal violence and depravity.
Beheading isn't going to be normalized. These people are trying very hard to make perverted homosexual behavior appear normal and natural, and by doing so they are very likely going to get more converts and more mass support for this sick behavior.
It's propaganda. Beheading isn't propaganda and won't have any effect on the mass audience. Showing f@ggotry as normal *WILL* have a detrimental effect on the nation.

See my earlier message in this thread about how Hollywood, after "Silence of the Lambs" portrayed a homosexual in a very disgusting and horrifying light, created a Homosexual approval board for movie and television scripts.
Better yet, look it up yourself on the internet.
*THIS* is why f@ggotry has become so common in movies and televisions. It is not because people want it.

In the 1950s, this homo stuff would have gotten the movie people arrested and sent to prison. I think it should still be that way.
I hated the detour from the main plot. From what I gather we will never see these characters again, so even apart from the gay subplot it did not drive the story forward in any way. There is too much stuff I want to know in the main story for them to have wasted half of an episode on this.
Even Hallmark Christmas movies had two gay men liplocking.
I cringed.
