Imagine hearing Mr. Rogers singing about something so innocently 40+ years ago. It didn’t raise a single eye brow. The last thing that was on anyone’s mind then was gender.

They sure can. It all depends on how much the radicals want to push the issue. If they can remove a Confederate statue from a park, they can remove Mr. Rogers’ books from libraries and ban his shows from being aired.

The Left got everything that they could get out of ordinary homosexuality as a political organizing tool. Homosexuality is pretty much accepted and homosexuals are no longer an oppressed minority in need of subsidized housing and affirmative action, so the Leftists had to invent a new category of the oppressed that can never achieve equality for obvious reasons.

Or they can rewrite his books, as they're doing with the old classics by removing "hurtful" words.

With modern digital AI, they can even redo his videos so he'll sing the opposite of what he originally sang.

Mutilating someone and ruining their life never hurt anyone. It’s just the bigotry of far-right wing extremists that causes the harm./sarc

Even these many years later, he’s still beloved by millions. Good luck with that, leftards.

They’ll be canceling such icons as Monty Python, Mr. Rogers, David Suskind, JK Rowling...

They do not have that much power. They’ll wear themselves out and discredit themselves bigly.
