You've got these right-wing social commentators sucking each other off over liberal bias in the entertainment industry, saying that Sesame Street is brainwashing children to be weak and that the show is somehow being made under false pretenses, when it's teaching basic social etiquette and building personal skills.

It's fucking boggling that some dipshit hack like Ben Shapiro has gotten screen time on primetime television calling children's educational programming unjustified and disingenuous in its existence, because "treat other people with the same respect and courtesy you'd like to be treated with" is apparently some hippy dippy lib propaganda that weakens our culture as a whole. You'd think he would like Sesame Street, given that he sounds like a fucking Muppet, but there you go.

It's the same limp-dicked moral outrage that the Teletubbies got in the 00's, about how Tinky Winky was a clear representation of homosexuality with his purple body, triangle antenna and red bag. We're coming back around to 2002, 2003 where a bunch of insecure morons make headlines for ascribing their own horseshit insecurities to children's media, because small dick energy or whatever. It's a shit trend, and the people backing "urr libruls are teaching sin to children!!!" rhetoric like this are a bunch of mouth-breathing losers.

I mean, those things don't go all that well with some of the stuff the right likes to push, so really, it makes sense.

Pretty much shitting on giving kids self esteem and feeling special and claiming he made people grow up to be entitled. Typical right wing bullshit against individuality and feeling good about oneself without money and power coming into it. One host called him "evil".

What generation of kids would you rather have in a war?
A generation grounded on our current Sesame Street or a generation grounded on the blood soaked sand of Afghanistan?

The should be teaching conservative values like calling the police whenever you see a black person and ICE for everyone Hispanic not this empathy crap.

They should also show the importance of child imprisonment.

Taking a peak at Fox News is a good way to lose all empathy for...I mean, the sort of people who would be on Fox News. These worthless peons aren't even qualified to sweep the floor.

Sesame street.

Just because you are kind, doesn't mean you can't throw down.

Hate and fear is all they have, so it makes sense that they don't want future generations to have those traits. They'd have no generation to restore their dying demographic.

Seriously, hating on Mr.Rogers?
