Broke: Chinese censorship of queer stories going "and they were VERY GOOD FRIENDS"
Even more fucking broke: Netflix adaption of queer stories going "and they were BROTHERS"
Guys, Netflix is going to make a modern day adaptation of Dorian Gray and they're making Basil and Dorian brothers
#haha what the fuck#They really took the work of the most FAMOUSLY QUEER AUTHOR IN ANGLOSAXON LITERATURE and made it straight#I do not care if they only straightwash his relationship with Basil and maintain Dorian's queerness#it is still such a weak ass move#just bc you don't want to show two men can have a very complex and profound relationship beyond “official proper gay couple” or “brother”#TV so scared of showing men having relationships beyond “w/ his girl partner” “w/ his male partner” “w/ his bro”#depict men having complex and rich and messy personal life like proper human beings you cowards
