Cory, the Trump-supporting cop from Winder, Georgia, featured in Season 1, is “one of the most dynamic changes I have ever seen, next to Neal,” Brown continued. “Cory texts me photos of him doing the hair routine that Jonathan taught him. He’s now an activist. His job and his position as a police officer is changing. He’s just extremely evolved now. Every time he does something that he used to not do, like comfort someone who had a negative point of view or ignorant point of view, he texts me like a proud kid, saying, ‘Look, I just did it!’ It’s pretty phenomenal to see that type of change because that’s so impactful for our country. To me, this is what our show is all about.”

I don't mean to downplay the positive aspect of that change, but that's interpreting "activist" very generously. While I'm glad that sometimes homophobes can change, I'm also disinclined to throw one a parade because they're... well, starting to behave like a decent person. To me, it feels a bit like when people gush over a man who "babysits" his own kids or who barely manages to pull off a caregiver tasks that women are expected to do every single day, with no thanks. It's just a little too "omg yaaaaaaay you for achieving the bare minimum!"
