In the project about "VeggieTales," a student who worked on the presentation told The College Fix that accents of the evil characters in the show sounded like they were Latino or from other minority backgrounds, while the heroes of the show sounded white.

The show's villains include a zucchini named Mr. Nezzer and a group of peas called the French Peas, which speak in broken French accents.

I'm all for calling out racism, but it what world does French not sound white.

I don't think a religious show is going out of its way to please everyone.

This is what students are learning and presenting on these days.

And then they whine when they graduate with $100,000 in student loans for a worthless degree.

Fuck 'em.

Not every school 24/7 but it's definitely common in public institutions these days.

Not that you'd have a problem with it if it was every school 24/7 tho.

The guy who keeps a list of suspected communists on GameFAQs made a generalization about something. I am utterly shocked

For the event, students presented projects including "White Avoidance," "Civilized vs. Uncivilized," "Kill the Land, Kill the Indian," "White Women's Role in White Supremacy," "Gun Ownership and Racial Bias," according to The College Fix.


This is just the tip of the iceberg,

Students at California State University San Marcos claimed "VeggieTales" was racist because the villains in the show use ethnic accents while the heroes sound white.

That's not true at all. Mr. Nezzer, for example, had that deep goofy hybrid voice lots of kids' show villains have. And the grapes of wrath had country bumpkin voices.
