The fact that every Mileven argument I ever see can be countered or proven wrong easily.
"Mike is straight" it's never been explicitly stated.
"They've been building Mileven up for 4 seasons" season 1 was mostly platonic, season 2 hardly featured them, and 3 and 4 both showed their relationship failing when romantic and looking bad for both of them.
"Byler wouldn't make sense story wise" literally watch the show with your eyes open please.
"Byler/Mike being gay would be unrealistic" the show about supernatural horror 🤨. A repressed gay boy trying to conform with a girlfriend is the most realistic representation for queer people in the 80s I've ever seen in media.
"Bylers are delusional" then why do we have the most proof and analysis for it? You just have to be media literate and open minded to see it.
"The actors wouldn't want to do that" Noah, an openly gay man? Finn, an actor who has played multiple gay characters and kissed a boy for a role before?
And most of the time they just ignore us anyway. Honestly, the show is so much more exciting when you keep an open mind to anything happening Mileven's should really try to do it more.
