This cartoon did piss off parental watchdog groups. It was one of the leading factors to why there were so many Scooby-Doo clones in the 1970s.
Here's some fun animation history trivia, the world's first ever toy-based cartoon was 'Hot Wheels'. Based on the Mattel toy of the same name, it ran for two seasons from 1969 through 1971 on ABC.

I think that they got this "This thing is very popular, therefore I hate said thing and want it nuked out of existence!" mindset. They've been doing their damnest to cancel, callout, or do whatever because they don't like a popular thing.

The word "white culture" is inherently funny, cuz if you said that German culture and French culture were the same because of their race, you'd sound absolutely unhinged

White supremacists claim to love their culture, but have absolutely no interest in participating in it

America has a culture of violence, even Japan during the Civil War told the US to "fuck off" while America was doing what it does best.

We have to do this more. Just call out white supremacists about what white culture is. American culture protects freedom of speech, expression and religion. All things he's trying to claim have been taken from white people. Hes afraid of equality because to an oppressor equality feels like slavery.

Literally love how he mentions Irish and Italians who weren't even considered really white up until the 1950s. The Disney movie LADY AND THE TRAMP has both Irish and Italian racial stereotypes.

White culture is theft from other cultures through domination. White culture is never admiting your favorite foods/films/music is made by people you want to use and oppress. White identity isn't even real, half of it wasn't even considered white a hundred years ago.

All the people yelling and bitching about the deal with Netflix only to get a more disastrous deal that'll destroy Hollywood.
Hopefully WB stays firm and they don't cave in.

This isn’t just a shitty movie.
This is the kind of movie methodically tuned to drive a person insane just by watching it.

I am PARALYZED with anger and disgust. For movie night tonight at 6:30 sharp, my neighbors are choosing to watch the Lilo and Stitch remake.

You know, the one where Nani is a bitch, ABANDONS Lilo, breaks their family and gives her over to the state.

The problem is that this is not about protecting children from predators, given that Roblox implemented similar measures purely to placate parents & those still failed at protecting minors.

This is just a smokescreen for stealing and selling your data. People need to do their jobs as parents.

Many people have gone independent anyway. Given how the company treated those like Alex Hirsch and Dana Terrace, who'd wanna even work there for sleazy vulture capitalists at the top?

all of this to say: evil can sprout from anywhere, and grow into forms you could never even imagine.

i love how the Earthbound/MOTHER series can convey such deep and complex concepts in such a digestible package.

Porky/Pokey starts out as just the typical bratty kid next door, goes on to join an evil cult, aid a corrupt billionaire, pledge his allegiance to the ultimate cosmic terror, become a fascist eugenicist dictator, and is ultimately damned to a fate worse than death (and doesn't even mind).

poetic.

Their "art" is founded on hatred. Be it a shitty webcomic or an AI-generated game that runs horribly, the "Keep politics out of our escapism" crowd proceed to use that same escapism to just rant about whatever BS they got from Truth Social, to barely disguise their hatred for other people.

Okay, revisiting K-Pop Demon Hunters and paying closer attention to the lyrics, as I have with Hazbin Hotel's songs before.

Yeeeeeeep. Saja Boys' entire villain song is about parasocial relationships. And this is reflected in the end song, Golden. An extension of idol culture and the grind.

This also means that for a long-ass time, Disney's monopoly on this genre was so bad, people have gotten used to musicals spelling out the plot.

Why the Cats movie was so bad: most of the subtle nuance was lost in translation. Musicals were LITERALLY a lost art in western animation.

There has been a serious need to have the A and AA games market to be backfilled. Astrobot was a fantastic and perfect example of games that should be made available once more, similar to Spyro and Crash.

Not everything needs to be a 'Halo Killer,' but we need SMB Wonder in the libraries.
