(Anonymous) 2012-10-12 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)If Finn had bitched at, bullied, berated or blackballed Santana, I'd be willing to get into the nitty gritty of 'own medicine' with you. Maybe.
But he outed her. He fucking outed her on a show that purports to be strong on LGBT issues. With no consequences for him at all.
He outed her, and the story cast him as the hero instead of as the idiot who should have been smacked upside the head by his gay brother followed by everybody else in the cast for a Very Special Episode about how you never ever ever ever out somebody else.
I'm sorry that you missed out on a friendship you enjoy. But no fucking part of that blame lies with the fans who called Glee on its shit.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-12 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)Not saying that means SHE deserved to be outed but...actually I don't remember where I was going with this. That show is stupid as hell and it hasn't made sense in forever

(Anonymous) 2012-10-12 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)Like, there's a bit in S1 where this exchange happens:
Kurt: (Addressing the club) Can we please talk about the elephant in the room?
Santana: Your sexuality?
The conversation moves on. It's a bitchy Santana jab, it's not an outing.
Maybe there's another buried in there somewhere, but I don't remember it. And this is the one that I've seen mentioned in some - frankly bizarre - beatifications of Finn.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-12 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)Also, this reminds me: I HATE how fucking stupid they made Brittany (she was already dumb in the first season, but it seemed like her character had been eating a diet of lead paint chips or something because she just kept getting less and less intelligent). I've always disliked it when tv shows made characters so dumb they can barely dress themselves. Brittany is so child like (she still thought babies came from a STORK) that it got to the point where I was honestly skeeved out by any pairings involving her

Re: &
but yeah, i agree with you. whether santana deserves a taste of her own medicine or not is an entirely different argument. whatever your feelings are on that doesn't change the fact that there is no excuse for outing someone. nor does it change how shitty it is that the show didn't reflect that, and that finn walked out scot-free (as he usually does). outing someone is not "fair retribution." making a major life decision for someone is not the same as issuing insults. you could be putting someone in danger, ffs.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-13 06:53 pm (UTC)(link)And whatever Finn did wasn't exactly "nice" but he didn't do it to be a nasty person. Or because he was miserable and he wanted her to be miserable. He did it out of spite. But he was the only one that recognized that there was more than meets the eye. He saw past her mean attitude and he wanted her to be the amazing person that he saw her as. That's why I love them. It's the only friendship on the show that came from someone seeing a person as more than just their hollow reflection.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-12 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)But extravagant verbal burns and cartoonish violence are part of Glee's quirky aesthetic. Except when they aren't. It's the same with Sue - if we're taking bullying seriously that woman belongs in prison. But it's played for laughs with her (and I think it's genuinely funny most of the time). Except when it isn't. Stupid incoherent show.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-13 02:14 am (UTC)(link)But I guess we all have stuff like that -- I am convinced Kurt and Quinn SHOULD have been besties because both bitchy and ambitious in a way less needy than Rachel's, but they barely talked ever in actual canon. Woe.
