It's more of this, "back in my day, we all knew it was just jokes!". It's simply not true. Literally and episode of Seinfeld got pulled from the air for being considered offensive. It hasn't changed, it's just easier to find and share, now. People have been outraged about popular culture since long before any of us. Married ... With Children, All in the Family, etc. All had literal protests. I don't know of anyone who watched old shows and was like "wow, this show would not go over well today! this is terribly offensive and thus not funny" Infact, the opposite was true as networks loved rerunning old shows. And people still laughed at the jokes. People literally protested Married With Children, in the 80's. And who did that? College students? It appears it was a Christian mom who wanted people to "think of the children!" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terry_Rakolta At least I assume she is religious. You don't see a difference to college kids doing this and a religious activist? Like, college kids in the 80s, what do you think it would have took to offend them? --- chill02 to me: you are beautiful <cite>darkphoenix181 posted [p:914151792] in Kinda funn...
