I have no problem with the rainbow flag, and they have about as much creative freedom as everyone else around the world. I don't care about your orientation. I care about art, creativity, and the freedom that people have to express them.

I agree with this person. You should not say one queer fiction is fine, but the other one is not fine, or at least from a moral standpoint. If you're going to criticize a story, criticize it for their quality, not for their uncomfortable depictions of anything.

This person, for example, complained from a moral standpoint. "This does not apply to incest and sexual assault topics. Those topics are not okay. They are icky and disgusting." Okay, so is murder, and yet fiction celebrates murder all the time.

"You can call out queer fiction without antagonizing the queer aspect of it." True, but your callout amounts to "I find these topics disgusting." That's not a sign that the fiction is immoral. That's a sign that this fiction isn't for you, and you should read something else.
