The character is on US versions too and for very political reasons.
When has Kami been on a United States episode of Sesame Street?
Is that a joke?
It’s one of the reasons I stopped watching. :p
In other words, you don’t know the answer.
Lyme disease isn’t a disease that orphans kids in South Africa. Cancer is way, way down the list of cause of death in South Africa. When the Sesame Street character was created back in 2002, HIV was an epidemic. And again, not that it matters, but many who contracted HIV in South Africa were/are heterosexual. You seem to be operating under the false idea that the South African character with HIV appeared on the United States Sesame Street.
So yes, you are wrong.
And you seem to be operating under the mistaken assumption that the left did not and has not used that to indoctrinate young kids into ‘gay is ok” and ‘be safe/use a condom and you’ll be fine” across the planet. Nothing the left does is without service to the agenda. NOTHING.
So yes, I’m right.
How will NPR fundraising appeal to/guilt the middle class parents now?
The “left”? The South African left? Because the U.S. hasn’t ever had Kami on American Sesame Street. I’m not certain how you could go about condom use and gay indoctrination of little kids in the U.S. using a character who’s not on US tv.
Further, when has, and why would South African Sesame Street discuss that “gay is ok” with kids, when HIV in South Africa is not really a gay disease in that country?
Again, who is this left you are referring to? The U.S. left or South African left? When has condom use been mentioned on Sesame Street? How about “gay is ok”? I’ve been unable to find any examples of either.
