things I’ve learned from 1872 so far:

Steve and Tony spend time in saloons together

Tony sings to Steve on a regular basis. Steve may or may not enjoy it / join in some nights.

Steve protects his damsel in distress.

Tony getting extremely angry when Steve gets killed

Then depression settles in as he grieves over his lost love

Steve’s death triggers him building weapons again, something he said he’d never do again.

After Steve was killed and he couldn’t prevent it, or considers himself too late to, he would sacrifice himself and die if it means taking down the people who shot his sheriff. So he would gladly die to take these guys down and avenge his husband Steve.

Rose Mallinger, who was killed at the Tree of Life Synagogue yesterday, was 97 years old. 97 years. She lived through the Holocaust, was on this earth, a young woman as 6 million Jewish people were killed for being Jewish. Spent her whole life surrounded by people who looked at the atrocities of the Holocaust and said “never again.” Lived 97 years and died at the hands of a gunman who killed her for being Jewish.

Out of all the comics to address discrimination within the LGBT community, The Flintstones wasn’t what I expected. But here we are.

Issue #4.

Fred and Wilma are facing discrimination from the people of Bedrock for their monogamous lifestyle, which goes against the free-for-all fuckfest that is the norm in the prehistoric society. A clear metaphor for same-sex couples.

They go on a getaway trip with a bunch of other married couples. But on the trip, they discover the trip leader, despite preaching acceptance for married couples and being a trailblazer of social reform, has his own prejudices. Specifically against same-sex couples.

In the next two pages, Fred explains why they’re ought to care about more than just themselves when it comes to preaching tolerance and rights.

isn’t this the same comic where fred and barney committed a genocide

The very next issue to the marriage one is the genocide issue.

This comic doesn’t fuck around
