Why'd they try to cancel Kermit?

i think its the muppets

they were removing episodes or censoring them with trigger warning nonsense

because the swedish chef was racist.

its actually quite malicious and disturbing.

by mixing wholesome characters such as Kermit and admired historical figures such as Washington with racist trolls (that kid with the red hat and the troll face, I forgot his name) and trump-inconditional hateful dweebs like the Goya guy they launder the latter two into mainstream acceptance.

next thing you know you will hear magans saying the racist kid and the Goya guy did nothing wrong

its basically "can enough triggered liberals scream about this online" and that can happen to everything

there was a couple crying about how mario odyssey encourages rape culture. thats fucking stupid, but its the type of thing that if enough fucking stupid people cry about it and loud enough, then things get cancelled or censored or whatever. just because of a few unstable people who shouldnt have access to the internet

This isn't even remotely true. The Swedish Chef is still intact.

The episodes removed were the one with Johnny Cash singing in front of the Confederate flag, the one hosted by convicted pedophile Chris Langham, and the one hosted by Brooke Shields which had copyrighted songs from The Wizard of Oz.

chase (i think its his name) is a police dog.

All Cops Are Bad, therfore the dog is normalizing police behavior and teaching kids that its "okay" to be a police officer

yes, thats literally their arguement

i might have gotten trolled then, but i swear i read he was given a warning or censored or something

It's pretty funny because it's true, which is also sad...

Fox News only cares about shit like the "war on Christmas" or raunchy music videos like WAP.

pretty sure none of them give an actual rat's crap about Paw Patrol or The Muppets... lol

This is the end goal and it's working. Even though it seems ridiculous now, it's a powerful tool to get culturally conservative people to accept heinous things.

I know and it still pisses me off lol. Like we are dealing with a massive humanitarian crisis in Yemen and they arent talking about it. Not sure if CNN or MSNBC is either

There's only certain times of day that CNN, MSNBC, and fox news are legit news. Rest of the day is entertainment presented as news.

Thread Ferret badgers and rabbits among the prime suspects in the hunt for how Covid-19 spread to humans
Reason User banned (2 weeks): xenophobic drive-by
This just rubs me the wrong way. Like, "prime suspects" for what? Being trapped in horrible wet markets and fur farms against their will? It's unbelievable to me these places are even allowed to exist

haha, thats just lol

from a logic point of view, wet markets exist largely in poorer countries because its "fresh" and preservation of meat with freezers and stuff isnt always that easy/simple/cheap. its largely based on poor countries doing what they have to do. I regularly went to a wet market in cambodia too and thats where we got the meat (the only thing that was killed live that we ate was frog though)

so the weirdo mods probably take that as "poor countries (in asia especially) do things i think are stupid". While we can get what the guy means and how its not offensive or xenophobic

The mods, at this point, HAVE to be looking through some sort of specially modified glasses that make everything look offensive.

That HAS to be it.

I like Gone with the Wind. It's a really great movie.

You have to be literally insane to not see why people would raise a frown at some of the things that happens in it, though.

Or racist. Insane or racist.

I dont no nothin bout no racism

banned for 1 week for ableist remarks, threadwhining and history of prior offenses

>_> its easy, but man, they arent joking. its deranged.

i think a lot of the mods are proven to be mentally not there though. its probably that which causes all the problem since when one of them quits because its "too much", they just hire another weirdo instead of a normal rational person and it continues the cycle
---

I think they meant Pepe frog, but they're too dumb to know the difference.
and also too dumb to know that pepe's own creator already killed it because he didn't like it's being used as an alt right icon.

Actually that's only one wing of arguments.

There's another that's basically like "it's propaganda for Republicans by saying govt services can't handle things but private entities can"

Both of course are nonsensical. They're also in the minority and paw patrol is pretty much at no risk of "being cancelled"

oh lol thats even worse.

but yah, the triggered libs want it cancelled, i think thats the point. but yeah, hope not. paw patrol is kinda decent for what it is.

better than shit lilke noddy's toyland detective bullshit. who what when why? the fucking one that looks guilty like it always is

"Triggered libs" are like a handful of people in this case.

People complain. Social media makes them louder. But the numbers tend to be oft inflated. It occasionally seems in certain instances the outrage over the outrage is worse than the initial outrage (see the Rudolph "cancel" from last year, which was one dude clearly tongue-in-cheek).

Point being, the "outrage culture" knife is cutting both ways. Libs aren't alone as participants. Lest we forget how many conservative boycotts there are now.

yeah i know, ive seen things where an article made it seem like it was a huge deal but literally 2 people complained to a network or something.

i dunno if signal boosting is the right word, but its like that. a small group of nutjobs can make something seem like a big deal. its worse when news articles then point to those with words like "growing discussion on this big issue" just by cherry picking 3 nobodies too.
