Are they "problematic" by today's standards? They tend to beat up Cat and it's played for laughs. Today's society is so soft and sensitive that they seem to hate a lot of old stuff for being "problematic".
Aren't they supposed to be bullies? Are bully characters considered "problematic"?
>>152988446They're assholes. In fact everyone in the show is an asshole. And not even the fun kind of asshole.
>>152988446lets be real, bullies have always been cringe. if you are gonna tell me they were just fighting for the nerds to stop being socially awkward and open then i am sorry but you fell for a meme.With that being said I don't like how some creators never humble themselves and make the bullies a bit sympathetic because only hurt people hurt other people like how Butch Hartman made Francis not only look like a zombie but he was supposed to dance ballet? I mean....that's what Tom Holland does but that different situation
>>152988446Anon.Think about what you said, and then scale it way back to your point of reference. How would people from the 1940s, think of people back in the 1900, or late 19th century.
>>152988446no but they're the kind of characters that make grown-ass autists cry hard about mean-spiritedness on deviantart and pretend that it's normal to react like that
>>152988513>Butch Hartman made Francis not only look like a zombie but he was supposed to dance ballet? I mean....that's what Tom Holland does but that different situationWhat are you smoking?
>>152988593sorry it's 3 am for me.
>>152988513>if you are gonna tell me they were just fighting for the nerds to stop being socially awkward and open then i am sorry but you fell for a meme.Yeah, if anything the kids known as bullies were often the most socially awkward of all at my school. Nobody liked them much. There were also popular kids that would talk shit sometimes, but they weren't strictly "bullies."
>>152988446I'd argue that of the whole show, as >>152988469points out. About the only character who isn't a complete dick is Dog.
>>152988513>only hurt people hurt other peoplenot true
>>152988857ok then tell me where are the kankers' fathers then...
>>152988446>Are they "problematic" by today's standards?Who the fuck cares? People who watch cartoons looking for shit to complain about need to get a life.Even NEETs bring more to the table than people who do that shit.
>>152988769>About the only character who isn't a complete dick is Dog.What about CatDog’s parents, Randolph Grant, Marvis and Dunglap?
>>152988446much as the kooks speak of their 'anti-bullying' movement, in reality, they are the bullies, so what we're actually seeing in cartoons today is characters like this in a prominent position as "friends"usually girls who learn how evil their rich fathers are, and how they must stop listening to him.. while still being snide, snotty bitches.because the actual goal is to make US the 'bullies'
>>152988894Thank you for being someone who actually watched the show and know that not every character was an asshole nor is the show that meanspirited compared to something like Invader Zim, a show that everyone here sucks the creator's dick over but is way worse than anything CatDog did when it comes to how it treats Dib.
>>152989459Shut up, bitch.
>>152989495Fuck you. You're mad I'm right, Jhonen dick rider.
>>152989538No, calm your tits
>>152988446I don't give a fuck about madeup prog issues and I don't give a fuck what they think.
>>152989573Prove me wrong, then?The episodes "Dark Harvest" and "Bad, Bad Rubber Piggy" are 10x worse than anything CatDog dealt with. One episode has Zim stealing Dib's organs after stealing the entire school's organs and the other one has Zim fucking over Dib in the past until he's disabled and mentally stunted.
>>152989615Are you really willing to die on the CatDog’s hill?
>>152988894Fuck man, it's been like two decades since I last watched the show.
