Seeing a lot of “nobody cares” in this thread which tells me that a lot of you don’t have any trans or queer friends. Representation absolutely matters and I will feel extremely proud until this blind motherfucker costs the Knicks a game.

I think (some/many) people mean well when they say they don't care, but I think that's a disappointing response. Saying you don't care when a marginalized group finally gets representation within an industry means you didn't care that they were not previously welcome in that industry. "Firsts" matter because they are the end of "nevers."
