There is a gay agenda.
There has long been debate about the sexuality of SpongeBob Squarepants and some are taking a Nickelodeon tweet as his coming out.

I want to be careful with speaking in absolutes. If I or anyone else catches me doing so in a non-factual way, I am sorry in advance. I am merely speaking to what I believe in my heart and am using poor communication skills to express such ideas.
It seems as though whenever the idea is discussed, the basis of including people of all types on television was so that folks could see themselves represented and not feel marginalized. I know I personally appreciate that this effort is made. Seeing Carl Winslow or Uncle Phil probably had a positive effect on me I never realized growing up. And I at this time seek out content showing people of a similar skin tone as mine when I want to show something to my kids. So i get the need to be inclusive.
I recently got done watching Brooklyn NineNine. I kind of rolled my eyes at how hard they pushed the "Rosa is bi/dates females" stories down our throats in seasons 6 and 7. They spent 5 seasons hardly ever touching on her personal/romantic life outside of 1 (heterosexual) relationship and then come seasons 6 and 7 half of her story arcs are based on personal/romantic (homosexual) relationships. But, I am able to realize this may be helpful to a teenage girl/young adult who is struggling with accepting themselves sexually so I can get over it.
But spongebob? I personally find it VERY hard to beleve that a kid is going to look to Spongebob, see that he's gay and feel better about themselves if they, too, believe themselves to be gay. I dont think anyone is watching Spongebob in hopes of seeing a representation of themselves. A kid watching spongebob more than likely isnt even thinking about what their sexual nature is. Why must their (potentially) first thoughts about sexuality have to come from a cartoon?
Spongebob is clearly asexual, as most kid cartoons are. The creator of the show, who is now deceased, even said as much. Yet here is Nickelodeon proclaiming him to be a member of the LGBTQ community.
Are asexual beings also considered apart of the LGBTQ community? If so, sorry for the rant. If not, here is more proof to me that there is indeed a gay agenda. Set to strike kids as early as possible.
