Yellowstone is pretty worthless. It was a decent concept to start but got so far off track it's not even watchable. |

First, he's male. Second, it's the suburbs. Third, of 10000x more importance, it's one instance. https://xtramagazine.com/power/lesbi...he-1930s-70201 Believe it or not - the vast majority of lesbians in this country weren't rounded up and murdered in the 1930s. I'm sorry if that disappoints your sensibilities. Nor were homosexual males in the 1950s and 1960s regularly murdered before the Stonewall Riots. I did spend a decade of my life living two blocks from the Stonewall Inn, but putting that to the side, is there anything else you can provide a single example of 20 years later that you think should represent a true reality on a television show you're watching? |

For the record, History is not being rewritten. Fiction is being rewritten.

I was worried in the final season they would try to get too cute, but it feels very honest and very real with how it's ending for some of the characters. |

When I saw Franklin flying a plane I was 100% out on Snowfall
There was a bunch of other things that contributed but I couldn't continue after that Was the shark jump moment for me |

I think it was to more signify that he made it. He had tons of money to do whatever he wanted including buying a plane and learning how to fly it. He wasn't going to be stuck in the shitty projects like the rest still were, he was "above" them all.

Keep on name calling, because you apparently you believe that it was a Utopia of equal rights, and such hate crimes never occurred consistently like African American hate crimes during this time |

Not that there was simply discrimination....but rather, some form of genocide. I hope you see the difference. |

Never said genocide, you're putting words in my mouth but they were seen less than human hence many using the word queer as a slur. Gay people hid their preference in lovers because of it. The Great Depression spiked such hate crimes enabling white supremacists raiding homosexual centric nightclubs killing anyone in sight. |
