Abuse in fiction setting off sensitive reactions

 

You know as a kid I grew up in some really interesting times and I enjoyed entertaining themes that took things really far like any kid, I don't know a single child or even a teenager that were offended by any of the things back in the early 1990s when everything in media was pretty much fair game...Today you can't make fun of anything without making some wussified person upset enough to sue you to hell and back if they could. You can't promote violence even if it is fictionalized, you can't do this, you can't do that...I've come across a lot of grievances where people would single out comedy or abusive themes in media because it offended them personally, or they were highly uncomfortable with the elements in that particular show. 

Ed Edd N Eddy was probably the first time in my life I actually witnessed female characters behaving like sexual aggressors, and because of it I became smitten by those characters and I liked the Kankers for their brazen predatory behavior. Fast forward today there are probably complaints and people bitching about the way the Kanker Sisters were portrayed because lets be real, if the Kanker were to make a comeback today they would be very different characters... 

If Dan brought the show back, he would probably censor and cut out all the parts where the Kankers are sexual aggressors. If the show was remade,rebooted, or got any updated versions, their personalities would be heavily altered to the point where you wouldn't recognize who they were anymore other than their appearances...But taking away their aggressive demeanor would 99% kill these characters for me if they weren't the same brass give me that dick or I'll take it Kankers. But I prefer it if they were preying on Nazz sexually instead of the Eds -laughs- 

Try to imagine them doing this scene today, and the negative reaction it would get...
It would be even worse if the gender roles were reversed. Dan would probably receive death threats
from these stupid fucking people. In other notes...I wish Nazz was in Edd's place...This entire scene would have made me hard back then if Nazz was forced into some heavy Lesbian abuse action. Strapped to a tree, nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, just forced to get lipped fucked by another girl.

Back then in 1999 when Ed Edd N Eddy debuted on Cartoon Network, nobody complained about the Kanker sisters out of control behavior. We tolerated it because it was funny, and because we loved how different it was to see female characters portrayed in this manner. Granted no show would ever portray male boys behaving like sexual aggressors toward female teenage girls, it would cause a massive backlash. Why would there be a backlash you ask? It's because there are TOO MANY sensitive fucking idiots in the West crying and advocating for censorship if something severely offends them. 

Just a few moments ago I was on google  looking up some content on Meg Griffin because I have my own Meg Griffin character. I wanted to fix her I felt like she was a tad bit too muscular and I wanted a chubbier toned version of her instead, you know... Not fat, but I didn't want her to look like an athlete either. I was on google searching up examples to see what other people came up with in terms of how they created Meg to get an idea.

So I came across this video link on youtube related to Meg being the victim of abuse with text that read "This is Not Funny!" Out of curiosity I decided to click on the link to see what the commotion was all about...I already knew the comment section was going to be filled with 90% of people bitching and bemoaning about how Family Guy makes them uncomfortable because all the characters are abusive in some way. One comment posted the most predictable comment of all "I hate this show because everyone in it is a pedophile." Which shows their IQ is below 20, because the only "Pedophile" in Family Guy is Herbert, yet his attraction toward Chris wouldn't make him a pedophile because Chris isn't a child. He's only 16 to 17 years of age. However it wasn't really about the other characters, it was about how Meg Griffin is treated by her family and so on...Everything from "You must be a racist misogynist to like this show!" To "Only people who get off on child abuse would watch Family!" Were the usual personalized attacks toward anyone defending the shows depiction of Meg as the punching bag and victim of abuse.....

The reaction reminded me why I strongly hate Western Civilization and just Modern society in general...Yes Peter treating Meg like shit is annoying because he's incredibly obnoxious and a fat scummy slob, and I can't stand the fat fuck no more than I can tolerate any of the other characters in the show. However, I still see it as a dark comedy where characters are intended to be crappy individuals to each other. I mean yes it's a bad comedy no less and not because of how Meg Griffin is treated, it's a bad show because the characters are stupid, they're all annoying....Most American shows are like this.

Family Guy is a heavily liberal television show, with liberal jokes, memes, and so on....Sort of like how Seth wanted American Dad to be Conservative, you know Stan is painted as the guy who assumes that every Muslim must be a terrorist, yet you have people who see this and they'll say "Well gee Stan is a bigot!" Granted I'm pissed Seth got rid of Linda Memari which is the only reason I even watched American dad those couple of times whenever she was present, I was hoping there would be more moments where she tries forcing Francine into wanting another woman. 

 To be honest I hate these shows because they aren't funny, and the characters are really annoying. Family Guy characters are even more irritating than the ones in American Dad. The people who were offended by Meg's treatment fail to also understand that Meg herself is a dark and cold individual. She isn't a pure or innocent person, she definitely has a dark side. In one Episode she tried to drug her brother so that he could be raped by another guy, and she was literately sitting in the room watching to see if it would happen. I'm not sure, but I think she did succeed at drugging Chris because she wanted to watch him get assaulted in his sleep I forget why she even did this.

Meg is a disturbed individual in her own right, so to single out her family as terrible people while overlooking darker traits that Meg herself has is just fucking ridiculous. It wasn't the only time Meg did something dark, she kidnapped her Dog and tried to molest him. She set up Bonnie so she could fuck her husband and steal him away from her... Point is, Meg is a psychopath she's not a normal person no more than Peter or anyone else in her family.. They are all dysfunctional as hell people...But yet the comment section was filled with people who feel that Family guy takes things "too far" with it's abusive moments where Meg is victimized. They were treating the character as though she's a real person, on top of the fact that they tried claiming how it affects them personally to see her being abused by her family members, mainly Peter. So they see the whole thing as promoting "abuse."  

 Personally I think all these people are goddamn morons taking a fictionalized show so seriously, if they had it their way they would sanitize the whole entertainment industry so it will be one big borefest. I mean not everything is suppose to be sunshine and roses, but the thing about the West is that the people got mentally weaker, softer, and a lot more sensitive, dumb and stupider too. Everything fucking offends these losers nowadays which is why they support censoring media. But because Meg is a female character being mistreated by her father...There is no mention as to how Lois mistreats her daughter, her son, or how she abuses her husband despite he's mentally challenged, that is unless he's pretending to be. Instead all I'm hearing is whining about Meg being abused by her "Misogynist father," and how "disgusting" the show is for normalizing "abuse," especially toward a minor. 

Now that I'm almost in my 40s I see a bunch of grown people acting overly sensitive and ignorant toward abuse in fictional television shows. I really don't like Family Guy, I hate it because I can't stand the characters, they are all highly obnoxious as hell. I didn't start liking Meg until the Prison episode where she beats up her bullies and forcibly kisses Connie deep with her tongue. In a way I wish she had of done that to her own mother too...Kicked her ass, and then molested her while Peter is forced to watch. That there would have been something I would have done if I had of had anything to do with it...And I'm aroused just think about it, but oh wait I did something like that!
