Above the fray.
Why is every historical male figure always getting gay accusations thrown at them

There's a line said in the trailer that supports what I've always felt the aim was.
If a respected/revered figure from history is implied to be gay, it might help lessen the stigma in the mind of the person who looks up to him.

"If you accept a queer Lincoln, you can accept queer people overall"

Scholars who think otherwise, or who might challenge the evidence are afraid of being seen as homophobes in academia, so they stand down.
