No, I swear I’m not making this stuff up: New York Times writer Charles Blow – quite possibly the dumbest man working in the media today, which is saying an awful lot – actually used his op/ed space in the fake newspaper of record on Friday to go after the greatest French skunk who ever worked in cartoons, the esteemed Pepe le Pew.

About 30 years ago Pepe Lepew came onto the field at a San Diego Padres game and caused a game delay. People in San Diego are still talking about it.

Speedy Gonzales by Pat Boone would never make the top-40 these days...

These guys were more authentic anyway.

Blow must be desperate for content subjects. Are the cartoons even shown anymore?

Porky Pig is gone, for making fun of speech impediments.

I swear, the democrats remind me of the muslims, who don’t want any joy, or music in their society. These are cartoons for pete’s sake. I venture to say there will not be ANY CARTOONS in very short order. Everyone is offended by EVERYTHING. Take me home LORD JESUS, this is my home and “I’M SICK OF IT, AMEN.”

A lot of two-legged skunks are jealous of Pepé Le Pew.

Oh for the days when we were carefree and lighthearted and could laugh at ourselves and any old thing.

These leftist grumps and curmudgeons are committed to wringing all the simple joys out of life. They won’t be happy until EVERYBODY is miserable.

If a domino effect were to occur does everyone realize that suddenly, without warning, millions of tattoos will either go out of style or become collectors items almost overnight?

Of course few would know it now, but a Pepe le Pew is a parody based on Pepe Le Moko, a character played by suave Charles Boyer in the 1938 film Algiers (also starring Hedy Lamarr). It is something of a distant precursor to Casablanca.

Pepe le Pew mocks the ladies men and "players". Anyone who isn't brain dead surely remembers the apocryphal line "come with me to the Casbah". Pepe le Pew is a send up, and it is far and away too subtle and nuanced for today's wokesters to even begin to understand, let alone pass judgment upon.

Even Bugs Bunny needs to be canceled. Has he ever asked, What’s up Doc?” to a female? Yes, Bugs promoted misogyny! Good riddance, Bugs!

Just for fun, we should start being offended and make lists of things that are way wrong:

Winnie the Pooh, Donald Duck, Sonic Hedgehog, Bugs Bunny are all wandering around pantless, razor wire, those bad fences, armed troops in D.C., etc., etc.

LOL!

“Television entrepreneur Jonathan Klein placed more emphasis on the threat posed by Newsmax and OANN, saying simply: “They were out-crazied on the right.”
