I'd be interested in seeing how the opinions go when you add "person C's grandchildren" to that second question.

Literally the only episode of Muppet Babies was one where they spent the time trying to figure out what a thing was, and it ends up it was a tea strainer the whole time. So Nanny showed them how it worked, and made tea for them.

I can't believe that the Jim Henson company would ruin this with an entirely new girl muppet.

"no personality" proceeds to describe her personality. That's some nice and concise idiocy there.

They address age-appropriate social issues like sharing, being kind to each other, honesty, and trying new things. They're not exactly crushing the patriarchy

I was in the right age demographic for the first series and until now I didn't realize that Skeeter wasn't just Scooter. I didn't remember that Skeeter was a girl.

The best part of muppet babies was when they opened the closet door out onto a giant star destroyer shooting lasers. That poo poo was wild

Literally every one of the coveted bits of 80s media these guys love suffers terribly from all this stuff they yell at SJWs about - where a team of white dudes has One Not White Guy who is clearly there to be Not A White Guy of the team, and that character was developed less and all of their issues or any bit of personality just went back to them being Different. The 80s was a time when a white woman was considered interchangeable with a black man for "token diversity" - you didn't need both, if you had one or the other, your bases were covered.

No see token diversity was good because it let people who wouldn't normally get their own shows be in shows. Now black people and women have their own shows so they need to leave the shows of white men back the way they were. White people including minorities was progressive and cool. Minorities including minorities is discrimination against whites. Please watch the following 50 minutes video and read the accompanying hundreds of pages of literature I've typed up on itsokaytobewhite.blogspot.com thanks.

I have to go now. My planet needs me.
SJW has become such a meaningless term. It made sense when it was used to describe the kind of people who tried to be woke and were really bad at it: the tumblr types who would claim that non-Mexicans speaking spanish is racist, then deny the existence of Spain, or the people who would claim that a lesbian not wanting a physical relationship with a pre-op mtf trans person is a bigot, or the people who would get really angry about white people eating asian food.

Now it's just become a term for 'thing I don't like' or 'media where a woman/non white/LGBT person does something' or 'people to the left of Nixon'. I just checked the reviews for the Incredibles 2 and there's a minority calling it SJW propoganda because elastigirl....did stuff in the plot (ignoring that it was a good movie!). It's become such a meaningless buzzword.

It's worth remembering that, like politically correct before it, SJW was an insult crafted on the left for other leftists. After the right latched onto it, it was just a matter of time until it got beaten into total meaninglessness.

I'm not entirely sure what Marxism is, to be completely honest. I'm not even sure how to accurately describe socialism, beyond it being better than what's in America right now. I know there's generally higher taxes, but not enough to bankrupt anyone, there's better healthcare, and the government is more involved in helping citizen welfare, and better pay.



I think. I'm not sure, and I'm honestly scared to say that, because I don't want everyone coming down on me for it.
