I bought collections of Looney Tunes for my first grandchild fifteen years ago. They all came with disclaimers from that insufferable racist Whoopi Goldberg even back then. Mel Brooks said years ago that Blazing Saddles could not have been made under these conditions. Most of the humor in that movie is laughing AT the racists.
I purchased a copy of “Blazing Saddles” before it is banned.
The only reasons I can think of that the woke Left is so incensed by it are ignorance and stupidity.
Ignorance because I doubt they have seen it, and stupidity, because if they did see it, they didn’t understand it.
The movie is brilliantly anti-racist. Mel Brooks explicitly made it that way. All the actors in it understood it was made that way.
The blacks in the movie are thoughtful, funny, and talented. The whites in the movie are racist, stupid, inept.
And, as Mel Brooks says in interviews about it, one of the best ways to combat racism is to ridicule it. Leftists are too dumb to get it.
