Not really. Being FLAMBOYANT perhaps but not just being gay. The other side to it is how gay black men choose to identify and partition off their concerns for the community that makes straight men in the community focus on our own issues. Too many gay men care about the gay struggle more than the black struggle and that's where most indifference comes from next to flamboyancy.
But this film wasn't about a flamboyant man yet it's still being tossed in the agenda/stigmatized/you're a disgrace to your race pile on. All that extra stuff in your post had nothing to do with what this film was about. It's projecting,

Where did you see two cards in it?
I edited my post.

He toook the wrong envelope. There are two of each. Duplicates on both sides of the stage. He took a best actress. Didn't check it. The right one was brought out by someone from PWC

Envelopes aren't released until right before the person hits the stage. They are set up separate from stage direction. So hence the dupes on both sides of the stage.

Beattys old ass didn't read the envelope he took.

OK, so here's my theory....

Best Actress was in the Best Picture envelope and vice versa, and Warren had the right card, wrong envelope. He thinks he's reading Best Actress...he's old and senile and hasn't been on screen in over a decade afterall...so when he opens it and sees Moonlight, he gets confused. Faye hardly looks at the card and was about to say Emma, but says La La Land. Emma says she had her card in her hand (the one with her name), and I believe they snatch the card from Warren and read it to say Moonlight.

Either way, someone will never work in Hollywood again.

Think about how savage Barry Jenkins did em once he won.

The producer was up there saying "This is about dreamers" during the time Lala land found out they didn't win.

First words out of Barry Jenkins mouth. "Very clearly in my dreams this could not be true. The hell with dreams this is true!"

:picard::wow::picard::wow::picard::hhh::banderas:
2:21 (Laland Producer) 4:54 (Barry Jenkins)

24 of the exact same cards sit on both sides of the stage.

Someone handed Beatty the envelope for best actress. He walked out on stage with it. There was no wrong card. It was the wrong envelope.

They then ran out the right envelope with the winner.
