I'm the least SJW around and even I find a lot of the narrative choices Glee makes offensive tho.

I think "narrative choices" is a good way of putting it, honestly. It's not the subject matter itself that's inherently sacred and shouldn't be touched. It's the fact that Glee as a show is so fucking basic, the way it's been written ever since early s2 when these "after school special" type episodes REALLY started making an appearance, means that all you can ever expect when you hear Glee is tackling [problem of the week] is 45 minutes (and not even that much lbr) of contrived material where [said problem] is introduced and then neatly wrapped up by the end, never to be heard from again.

A character gets in a life-threatening accident and goes on hiatus for several weeks, leaving a serious cliff-hanger? Let's come back and barely spend 5 minutes addressing what happens to this character but spend every other fucking second to a character that doesn't need half of the screentime/solos he gets. Let's introduce his family and make that the focus of the episode, when we haven't met so many other character's far more relevant family members.

A major character experiences bullying that drives him to attempt suicide? Episode ends and the character is never heard from again. Oh but hey, guess WHICH character is the one to sing the song the scene is set to, whose only IC context for singing is that they think it might be a good song to use (nevermind that it's a solo for himself) at a future competition?

I'm surprised as fuck they left the Beiste storyline open to be continued, honestly. But let's not even talk about that disaster of an episode, because I don't really need to be reminded that they spent the whole episode lecturing the female characters about making light of domestic violence (in a scene they incidentally had to shoehorn in, forcing characters to be OOC to start off this plot in the first place) and have the boys too busy going off and having "bro" scenes to help a fellow "bro" graduate. But do the boys learn anything about DV? Do the girls help a "sister" in a similar situation out? ... Do the girls ever have any private group scenes that don't REVOLVE around the boys? Does the boy in this situation STILL fail but STILL graduate while the girl was never even given a chance to improve and assumedly just fails with no lip service given to the issue 'til the last possible second?

Yeah, I mad. This show is such a misogynistic piece of crap sometimes, but fortunately I think most rp'ers understand that.
