After repackaging Mr. Potato Head, Hasbro is eyeing up another change with a long-standing family favorite: Monopoly. The classic board game that has been played by Americans for generations is getting a 2021 style reboot. Hasbro is even letting the public vote on what’s appropriate content for a Monopoly Community Chest card.
Monopoly has really has stood the test of time. But, not many classics can hold up to the strict demands of today’s new woke society.
So, the longstanding board game’s Community Chest is getting a refresh that Hasbro believes will sit better with today’s more sensitive players than the legacy cards which take a more classic approach to culture and capitalism.

Those Community Chest and Chance cards are pretty much timeless as they are. There is nothing “outdated” about them. The beauty contest card they are replacing as outdated was obviously meant to be humorous by having a picture of Uncle Pennybags winning “Second Place” in the contest and you get $10.00 - it’s a funny card. Now it will be gone.
These people are just messed up. Too much time on their hands.
They mention Mr. Potato Head - they also got rid of Mrs. White in Clue as well.
