I hear you all the haters that didn’t want Sasha to win. I hear you and I am here to point why I think you are being irrational right now. Yes, an educated artsy white queen isn’t the most revolutionary thing about the future of drag but Sasha is not just white, she is from Russia which is one of the coutnries that right now treat lgbtq+ people the way Nazis treated Jews. So maybe it is radical enough.

As for Shea while watching the show I compared her a lot to Bob as for me they have the same strong points (performance, humour) and the stick with one silouete in their looks. Don’t get me wrong I love Shea, I just didn’t find her that different that what we already had. Sasha I think it’s the first queen adressing lgbtq+ history in the show. And the small comments make difference. As for Peppermint, yes her winning would be the most revolutionary thing ever but she didn’t serve good looks throughout the season. And she had been weak in multiple occasions. Again, I love peppermint and I would prefer her win because that would truly be revolutionary but I can see why Rupaul didn’t choose her. Still, Sasha deserved that fucking crown. (Plus, it was a very good plot twist because I too thought Shea was going to win, everyone thought Shea was going to win)

PS! I edited my post because it was point out to me by the lovely @misskelleywentworth that a few of my points were phrased pretty bad.
