They’re oh so magnanimously okay with the gays when they’r not being “in your face about it” (aka literally just showing as much affection for a partner as any straight couple, or mentioning it in passing, or doing anything that could call attention to them being gay/trans/etc)
But having a musical that revolves around a trans woman, a gay couple, and involves AIDS? That was simply too much for their (self)righteous sensibilities, and must be protested!
I mean, they could have just not participated, kept their mouths shut, and ignored everything about it, but at least now we know who the secret garbage people are.
