A well-meaning Pride post has sparked backlash from fans of the queer-coded yellow bird, Chuck
I’ve written about a lot of gay characters in video games over the years, but I didn’t know until yesterday that Angry Birds has what seems to be a pretty explicitly queer bird in its ranks. Well, at least that’s what fans thought until an official post through the game’s social channels labeled him as merely an ally. The fans are not pleased. It all started well-meaning enough.
This is not an exaggeration, this is literally what happens. They’re trying to get them to make an egg for them to eat. It’s a whole thing. But Chuck blushes at the notion rather than reacting with immediate anger, which some fans read as further evidence of him liking boy birds. “Y’all choose the gayest character to make the ‘straight ally,’” @TheLameShiver wrote. “THAT BOY IS *NAWT* AN ALLY THAT IS A WHOLE ASS FRUIT BASKET RIGHT THERE,” @FIeshbook said.
