First part says "Nooo this is cultural appropriation and stereotypes, it is offensive". The reply is "Ha ha that f*cking Speedy, I really like that guy"
Second part says: "This is for you latin american friends, a worthy representation for you thinks Latin America is just Mexico". Reply is something like "WTF is that?"
Why Warner Bros. insists on keeping the Looney Tunes franchise alive?
- You can't show the old shorts with black caricatures, which were considered offensive and removed in the 1960s, and Bosko, the first Looney Tunes character, can never come back.
- You can't show the old shorts with japanese caricatures, even though that's because the japanese sided with Germany in WWII.
- Apparently, the WWII cartoons are also problematic for Italian and German stereotypes.
- Just having a cartoon that is about WWII is complicated.
- You can't show the old shorts with native americans, previously called indians, even using that term is offensive, a native standing there, doing nothing, and using accurate clothing, is offensive.
- You can't show the old shorts with chinese stereotypes either, even though they weren't even intended to be offensive.
- Many shorts with characters smoking and drinking.
- Many suicide jokes while we live in a time where this is taken much more seriously.
- Bugs Bunny is a crossdresser, something considered sexist, and kept kissing other people without consent, other males but anyway, the LGBT community that made Bugs in drag acceptable again.
- Porky and Elmer Fudd are offensive for people with speech impairments.
- Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam cannot have guns, they were at first removed from the HBO Max series and it was hard to get them back.
