The rent controlled apartments cost $2,000 a month! Ouch. The median household income is $80,090. I can’t imagine paying 2k in rent on $64k/yr.

Takei’s view is an interesting perspective I hadn’t considered, but I disagree that it would have been better to make a new gay character.

I don’t know how to respond. Do I call Takei a homophobe? Or Paramount racist for not listening to him? Or do I try to find some way to condemn John Cho? I don’t know how to communicate on the internet without accusing others of wrongdoing.
