Woke Twitter comes for Netflix Canada after problematic (?) Tweet
It all started with the below tweet, which was posted in response to Netflix releasing the Queer Eye season 3 trailer, which features a new Carly Rae Jepsen song:
the gays get stronger every time @carlyraejepsen releases a new song

Some users did not take too kindly to Netflix Canada tweeting this, claiming they're exploiting the LGBTQ community.
Netflix Canada followed up with this:
the response has been a reminder of the high bar corporations are held to for representation, as they should be. As a gay woman & gay man who have run this account for 4 years, we strive every day to ensure our community is seen & heard. We absolutely take your concerns to heart

So ONTD, did Netflix Canada mess up, or are those users overreacting?
