Joe listened when they said "let's go"

Believe it or not, Disney deserves the credit this time.
Even as a full-grown adult with adult children, I still like cartoons. As I was raising my two sons, I made it a point to usually keep only one TV in the house. If videogames were being played, or cartoons being watched, it was always a family affair — and intentionally designed as such. The idea was to compel negotiation, compromise, and good behavior all around. Any fighting over what to watch or play immediately resulted in no one watching or playing anything. Kids like to play and watch, so they naturally figured out how mostly not to fight about these things.
My two all-time favorite cartoons are Avatar: The Last Airbender and Recess. Although Avatar has much wisdom to impart to those who watch with mature minds, Disney's Recess is where the most hysterical and profound understanding of "Let's go, Brandon" can be found.
In the Recess episode below, T.J. — the show's main character — has the whole world brought down on his head for inventing a new word for use by kids wishing to avoid detention for swearing at school. The parallels with the current "Let's go, Brandon" situation are as stark and comical as can be.
It's not often a grown man, a U.S. Marine, no less, implores other adults to watch a cartoon made for children — but that's exactly what's happening here. "Let's go, Brandon" is already the funniest thing ever to those who get the joke, but an entirely different level of appreciation is available for the mere cost of few minutes of your time.

A leftard reporter invented the cheer, anyway. She refused to believe what the crowd was really saying, so she deliberately mis-heard it and tried to gaslight everyone.
“What did the man say mommy?”
“Why, he said good luck yourself”
Or
“Mom... what does s-h-i...”
“HOMEWORK NOW JEFFREY!!!”
Maybe the reporter csme by it honestly, and was covering gor the crowd, with the stations best interest in mind.
If it was a hockey game and the Zamboni driver was named Brandon I could totally get it...
Great video!
Truth.
She didn’t think they could possibly be saying what they were saying, so her bias helped her create the new slogan in her own mind.
Now, it’s history.
And the left is trying to cancel something that they started.
Jill needs a leash and poop bag combo gift set.
Like opposite-day Narcissus, they hate their own reflection.
Why does T.J. look so much like Kyle Rittenhouse?
