Then there are the parents who are OK with the authoritarian elements in children's media but wish the authorities didn't always have to be white and male.

"I watched 'Paw Patrol' once with my daughter, and on that episode, Skye volunteered for a mission, but then Ryder picked two male pups," said Rebekah Pajak, a mother of a 2-year-old and a 1-year-old in Chicago. Skye is the only female in the core team of six rescue pups on the show. "I remember thinking, 'There's a glass ceiling in this cartoon!' "


Or maybe Skye, whose capability is flight, was the wrong choice for the mission. Should Ryder have picked her anyway for diversity's sake?

My favorite character is Rubble, the bulldog who drives the bulldozer.

But he doesn't get picked for every mission either.

I honestly didn't know that there was racism afoot in Paw Patrol

Mayor Goodway, a hispanic woman is the town mayor.

And just guess who the bad guy mayor is?

Mayor Humdinger, a white guy who wears a top hat and a Snidely Whiplash moustache.

If anything, Paw Patrol OVERDOES it on political correctness.

I hate liberals so much.
