Blank screen when filtering a collection for certain array values with "equals" instead of "is in"

Describe the Bug

When I try to filter a collection on a property that is a hasMany relation and use the "equals" operator I get a blank screen and the following error:

[Error: Failed query: select distinct "users"."id", "users"."created_at", "users"."created_at" from "users" left join "users_rels" "4f704f54_123f_4661_90e5_71f0edee30e2" on ("users"."id" = "4f704f54_123f_4661_90e5_71f0edee30e2"."parent_id" and "4f704f54_123f_4661_90e5_71f0edee30e2"."path" like $1) left join "interests" "f1c01e26_80fb_4c44_9c38_5b99a8ce7377" on "f1c01e26_80fb_4c44_9c38_5b99a8ce7377"."id" = "4f704f54_123f_4661_90e5_71f0edee30e2"."interests_id" where "4f704f54_123f_4661_90e5_71f0edee30e2"."interests_id" = $2 order by "users"."created_at" desc limit $3
