Not even any well-thought out disagreements with your reading, just endless cries of “Woke!” And “Forced Politics!” that wouldn’t have convinced me of anything even if I actually HAD hated that video!

the fictional violence was even JUSTIFIED. You just described your own allegorical reading of the movie, that a lot of bad faith people just took and ran with. Either by taking everything you said WAY too literally, or making up shit completely out of whole cloth!

But I really didn’t get thrown into the intense rage over that video that a LOT of other people did, and was actually pretty surprised to find out other folks hated it so much. I could probably talk about this a lot more myself, but the bottom line is not once in your original video did you say

Damn, I didn’t know it was possible for Family Guy to have ANY type of even remotely fucking positive/neutral mentioning or crossover with Bob’s Burgers anymore! Oh well, it took several years and really crappy TV seasons, but we’ve FINALLY got at least something!

I thought it was genuinely some of the best queer representation I had EVER seen on American television. It also looked really charming and funny as well, but the joyful diversity of every character/relationship in the show was definitely a major factor that drew me in initially.

The extreme use of ai generated images by pro-Palestine groups makes it nearly impossible to vet all images when mixed with real ones. What isn't impossible to vet, is the 55,000+ people Israel has murdered so far in Gaza.
