Yesterday Miguel covered how COPS and Live PD were getting canceled due to this latest outpouring of Leftist anti-cop sentiment.
Give them an inch and they will take a mile.
They got their inch.
Now they want to take my kids’ cartoons away.
From The New York Times:
The Protests Come for ‘Paw Patrol’
A backlash is mounting against depictions of “good cops,” on television and in the street.
Excuse me, but what the actual fuck is this garbage now?
It was only a matter of time before the protests came for “Paw Patrol.”
“Paw Patrol” is a children’s cartoon about a squad of canine helpers. It is basically a pretense for placing household pets in a variety of cool trucks. The team includes Marshall, a firefighting Dalmatian; Rubble, a bulldog construction worker; and Chase, a German shepherd who is also a cop. In the world of “Paw Patrol,” Chase is drawn to be a very good boy who barks stuff like “Chase is on the case!” and “All in a police pup’s day!” as he rescues kittens in his tricked-out S.U.V.
But last week, when the show’s official Twitter account put out a bland call for “Black voices to be heard,” commenters came after Chase. “Euthanize the police dog,” they said. “Defund the paw patrol.” “All dogs go to heaven, except the class traitors in the Paw Patrol.”
Chase is my son’s favorite Pup. The little girl loves Paw Patrol too.
Last week, Tom Scharpling, an executive producer of “Monk,” criticized his own show on Twitter: “If you — as I have — worked on a TV show or movie in which police are portrayed as lovable goofballs, you have contributed to the larger acceptance that cops are implicitly the good guys.” Griffin Newman, an actor who appeared in two episodes of “Blue Bloods” as a detective, donated his $11,000 in earnings to a bail fund, inspiring other actors who have played cops to do the same. LEGO has halted marketing on its “LEGO City Police Station” and “Police Highway Arrest” sets.
And he loves LEGOs too. I thought it was the job of corporate executives to guide a company to make money. Now it seems that at least half of them are there to make sure a company loses money to virtue signal to a tiny minority of people who are never satisfied.
In a nutshell, the trope of the “good cop” has to go because the prevailing narrative of the Left is that cops are racists who hunt black people for sport.
Cops already rank among the most humanized groups in America; the same cannot be said for the black Americans who live in fear of them. Cops can dance, they can hug, they can kneel on the ground, but their individual acts of kindness can no longer obscure the violence of a system. The good-cop act is wearing thin.
Humanizing cops is bad.
Humanizing the police through an anthropomorphized talking dog on a kid’s TV show is bad.
Kids today cannot simply enjoy a show that tries to teach positive life lessons. TV shows have to destroy children’s innocence to make them Woke.
That’s the new rule. CNN said so:
I’m getting just a little tired of this bullshit.
The Left is coming to burn everything they don’t like and nothing will be spared.
I don’t know if the Left is aware of the sleeping giant they are poking with this.
Take away Paw Patrol and leave parents with a bunch of crying little kids stuck at home all day and I guarantee you at least half of those brand new gun owners are going to look to take their frazzled nerves out on the fuckers that did that to their children.
