On older comics, most now banned for violence actually taught something:
Thanks for this Flash from the Past. I remember watching all those cartoon as a kid - moztly on black and white TV. My father was an accomplished pianist and he learned many of these classics in his training, so I had a double dose from cartoons and my dad.
As a kid I remember wincing when Yosemite Sam would clobber a horse, mule, or camel with a 2x4 or a rifle ("Whoa when I says whoa!" ).
The politically correct is fucking this up. Pepe Le Pew, the cartoons were banned because they "showed harassment".
It does show behavior that is considered unacceptable.
There's a whole spate of older movies where the male star is just as relentless in his pursuit of the "object of his affection."
@WilliamCharles That doesn't make those movies ok either...
@RobinGray - certainly not. But once the ball gets rolling on the standards applied, there are others that fit the same categories. Us atheists can still admire aspects of Thomas Jefferson, yet acknowledge he was a slave owning rapist.
And in this case, I don't think Pepe's behavior was lauded, but rather mocked. He didn't recognize his own stink, which made him try that much harder, unfortunately for him due to cases of mistaken identity.
