#genuinely crazy how some online one piece spaces are just insanely queerphobic

[melonteee]

once again in awe at how violently queerphobic one piece fans can even exist when there's a literal entire arc about Luffy being saved by the LGBT+ community. There are literally lines like "It may be hell, but at least it's a gay one!" and "Queers never die!" as Luffy HUGS his queer friends. This shit is said positively with Luffy LOVING these guys.

Impel Down screams that pirates and revolutionaries are formed due to societal rejection of a person, and Luffy loves anyone and everyone for whoever they are. I cannot imagine the tunnel vision a person must have to ignore these themes and still hold such prejudices when THE MAIN CHARACTER of the series they love would fucking hate them for the prejudices they hold.
