I feel a little bad Benji because I totally get it as a black bi woman that you wanna enjoy media without always having to worry about being oppressed, but also at the same time that is the truth to our stories, its a double edged sword. Idk if this has been talked about enough with yall but Louis in the books is not originally black nor set in this exact time period so I do think the show did a great job tackling that bc it wouldn't have made sense if they tried to do like 'race-blind' writing and stuff.
