The Kirby cartoon from the early 2000's (yes, a show about Nintendo's Kirby for kids) is now "inappropriate by today’s standards" according to the box set warning. (archive.vn)

I've been rewatching shows from my childhood and there's a lot of stuff in old kid shows that the left would pretend to be offended about so they could shit it up. A good example is that most shows back then had at least one episode where male characters had dress like women/girls and hilarity ensued. Shit, one show I watched had an episode where one of the boys dressed up as a girl and accidently tricking his bully into being attracted to the "female" he was dressed as. It was actually funny instead being all about the character's "gender identity" and they didn't do it to earn the praise of a bunch of clapping retards who thought they were getting a gender studies lecture. It was a breath of fresh air compared to today's media.

I was rewatching some old episodes of Batman The Animated series, and it was surprising to see Poison Ivy as a sexy femme fatale along with Harley Quinn being Joker's devoted girlfriend/henchwoman as opposed to the two of them being frigid lesbians like in today's DC media.

Is Margot Robbie’s Harley a lesbian..?

Sure, she’s not very good, but is she actually?? How does that, uhh, work with her origin story then..?

Also, isn’t Poison Ivy’s whole power her ability to control men??

Not saying you’re wrong, necessarily. I just don’t understand how this works, in context, lol…

in Birds Of Prey, Margot Robbie's Harley "emancipates" herself from the Joker and starts a gang of girl boss badasses. There is also the recent cartoon titled Harley where Harley and Poison Ivy are literally a lesbian couple, and their dialogue and humor mostly just consists of misandric snark.

Also they had to completely gut Poison Ivy's character, because in the original Animated Series she was conniving and manipulative. Her team-ups with Harley was based on a power play by Ivy to control Harley into doing what Ivy wanted (similar to how she controlled men).

But having Ivy manipulate Harley and groom her into her sidekick in the "modernized" HBO cartoon would be too much like reflecting real life lesbian relationships.
