The number of Harry Potter apologists who excused the Fantastic Beasts movies' lack of gay content. I've become the unfun one because I point out the laziness, insincerity, and disdain JK expressed towards people like me.
And I'm just annoyed they left good writing on the table. A wizard's ex turned evil. In a time where LGBTQ spaces were incredibly limiting. In a setting where you're already hiding parts of yourself. And they're going to not mention that at all? And instead they're going to shoehorn in a heterosexual relationship with a character who would've been better off written as ace or too invested in his work to maintain a relationship.
But yeah, I totally believe Dumbledore was written as gay from the start
