This is the main reason I've held off of Nightvale, even though it's right up my alley. 95% of the fandom seems to be talking about Carlos/Cecil, wank over how brown Carlos is, or fanart of Carlos/Cecil cuddling. It's really unfortunate when you actually get queer representation in media and the obsessive fangirls ruin it.

Yes, how dare people celebrate an ACTUAL canon queer couple for once. They should just shut the fuck about it and ignore it!

Your logic infuriates me. The reason people are over the moon about Carlos/Cecil is that it NEVER happens, ever. How dare you tell people not to be over the moon about it. If people's only reason for getting into WTNV is Carlos/Cecil because they're looking for any minute scrap of representation they can find, that is totally fucking fine and people have no right to try to silence them for it. Fuck's sake!

It doesn't strike me as queer representation celebration, it seems like obsessive fangirling and fetishizing. Fawning over a pairing (who gets very little attention, as far as I can tell) to the point of ignoring everything else in the source material is obnoxious.

The race wank is even worse than the sexuality/gender wank. But what annoys me the most is this: Finally, there is a gay POC in an important role without his sexuality being his defining trait - and what happens? He's not ~special~ enough, he clearly must be a transgendered, disabled gay POC! I don't even mind their headcanons, but some of them were really aggressive about it and this whole "Noooooo, not snowflakey enough" only demonstrates that they only care for how ~special~ a character is and not actually that there is any queer represenation.

What's the correct level of appreciating a queer pairing?

Not obsessing over and fetishizing it to the point that it literally doesn't matter what else is in the actual storyline?
