"They" know how to manipulate the psyche and pretty much disarm and neuter a person without actually sending you somewhere
Look at TV ... how do you suppose America accepts queers like it does ?
There’s just no “there” there. From the very moment the footage was televised and ensuing short-lived popularity, I never imagined her having her own talk show, writing a gripping account of her life in the ‘hood, or becoming the next African-American icon. She had her 15 minutes of fame, then flamed. She just wasn’t up to taking the ball and running with it. Opportunity knocked, but she didn’t answer.
For starters, those who write and cast the characters for sitcoms wrote in so many 'gay' characters that people thought they were 1/4 to 1/5 of the population...
Television is all about conveying perceptions, which it can do with the sound off.
Truth? Whazzat?
