sexualizing little kids is evil - kids should be allowed to be kids.
But their “ratings” are a secondary issue - as long as they have subscribers, they don’t have to worry about that as much. They have big cash flow even if ratings would otherwise be too low to sustain them with ad revenue.
My children grew up without Nickelodeon, and without cable TV.
Both are in their 20s, and conservatives.
Virtually no normal who comes into contact with actual members of the LGBTQ+ movement support it after actual exposure to the agenda. Nor do a lot of the more normal gays.
Great news but as long as cable subscribers (millions of them) are forced to subsidize low rated basic cable, there will be ZERO change.
One thing John McInsane was correct about—he fought for it, IIRC, in the late 1980s and early 1990s—was the right for CONSUMERS of television entertainment to CHOOSE their own channels. He was against bundling.
Picking your stations a la carte would likely get RID of low rated garbage stations like fake news CNN, LOGO, etc.
Or those entities would have to appeal to more folks....
China as they build up their Military BIOWEAPONS Nukes MEN etc must be either LTAO or Funding this BS!
Ratings mean spit when liberal money continues to prop up these shows. They are a constant wedge trying to isolate conservative America from the rest of the country.
I knew to the moment when the ‘60’s counter culture died. It was an ad in Newsweek for ripped, worn-looking jeans worn by an obvious hippie. I realized that once the hippies were being marketed to, the real counter culture they were a part of had turned mainstream. Overnight, people who had maintained the button down collar and good looking dresses during the hippy movement were now all dressed as hippies.
When I saw more or less straight-laced parents virtue signaling by dressing their kids up as drag queens, I got a similar feeling. The LGBT culture was on the cusp of vanishing. Like the ersatz hippies who became stock brokers, but dressed like hippies all through college the stupid parents subsumed the real gay culture into irrelevance. I noticed some time ago that butch lesbians were no longer fashionable. Now, they mostly identify as “queer” to make room for the new “trans” women. (Trans women can’t be lesbians because that would make them heterosexual men in stupid clothing. So, something had to give and it was old-fashioned lesbians who had to convert to something else.)
There have always been homosexuals. But instead of forcing bakers to bake their wedding cakes, they’ll just go back to being regular men who occasionally hook up with other men. Lesbians will be much quieter, not because they don’t like other women anymore, but because the loud, in-your-face brashness is just no longer new or cool.
You probably won’t see many more gay weddings or gender reveal parties either. The feeling of being part of a social movement has faded into irrelevance. Something else will come along, but it’s not here yet. Enjoy the respite.

You Can’t Do That On Television and keep your audience...
The 70’s “HR Puffinstuff” but not as pretty but just as short sighted.
And the money nugget you were all looking for:
“Since July of 2020 — during a time when American kids spent more time at home than the prior three years combined — Nickelodeon’s viewership dropped from 1.3 million average viewers per week to a June of 2021 average of only 372,000.
In other words, Nickelodeon has dropped more than two thirds of its audience.”
I am not 100% sure, as I wasn’t paying much attention, but I THINK I saw a commercial last night for Nickolodeon, and it was 2 gay “dads” of different races, sitting cuddled on the couch together, with their biracial child of unknown gender.
Who funds nicolodeon and the other perverted producers of porn? Do we do it through our cable subscriptions? (I cancelled mine 3 years ago).
We must destroy all woke companies.
