How the hell did they get away with this? This makes that City Wok guy from South Park look tame.
You may of not noticed but SouthPark did show dicks of the kids tiny little wieners from time to time. Side views of sex, the scissoring episode with Garrison as trans with his ugly breasts and his reverse sex change with his new wiener flopping around being grown on a mouse, dicks exploding and flying off of people but even with all that I was confused with this ATHF episode.
I'm all for dick humor but the dicks are fairly detailed and all they did was say dick and have dicks on screen the entire episode, I feel like it wasn't just them being moronic but sending a message to someone like an executive or boss that pissed them off, it wasn't funny but really awkward out of place episode imo.
I was talking more about those dick-collecting asian stereotypes than the actual dicks.
>dick-collecting asian stereotypes
?????????????????????????
Wong Burger's minions
I've never heard of dick-collecting being an asian stereotype before, is there something we should know?
I mean, Asians do tend to use penis in their weird folk remedies. But I think the joke is just penis stealing Asian minions are funny.
Anon I'm questioning the existence of the supposed stereotype itself, not an example of Asians collecting dicks. One occurrence does not a stereotype make.
All I can think of is when WWE had a group of Japanese wrestlers who tried to castrate a guy, but they didn't want to collect it, just cut it off because he cucked one of them. Perfectly reasonable in comparison to the dick harvest in ATHF.
Like Scalp Hunters with a chinese medicine tweest
what the frick am I looking at
ATHF Dickisode episode.
A character from Aqua Teen Hunger Force named Dr. Wongburger had his offensive Chinese henchman go out and cut people's dicks so he could use them to build a ship to return to Dick Planet.
The fact that they didn't sound Asian helps.
The first time you see his henchmen they dance and chinese parade music or something plays.
Based.
Frick the CCP
I hope you don't actually think they're communists.
different anon but they literally are
So, China is communist?
So china doesn't have rich or poor people or a free exchange of goods? Fascinating.
I don't know what the frick they are, ideologically.
>Claim to be Communist but allow people to accumulate vast wealth
>Don't give a shit of the ordinary Chinese citizen is being worked to death so a guy born into money can get richer
>Private healthcare not public
>Worship their leader like a God who cannot be questioned
>Suppress all dissent
>Micromanage people's lives to the point that tattoos and cigarettes are badthink
>Rewrite history to suit their own ego/insecurities (Hong Kong was apparently never a British colony)
As far as I can see they cherry-picked the worst parts of authoritarianism and oligarchy
Oh, okay. Good. Yeah, frick the CCP.
They're basically ultra-authoritarians just one step away from fascism, still waving the flag of Communism. The only thing that separates them from outright fascism is the fact that their economy isn't vertically controlled through a small set of organizations that are directly affiliated with a military-government hybrid. Which even then some sectors of their economy ARE organized in that way, but the PLA and CCP are still pretty distinct even if heavily intertwined. If they brought more of their economy under the government's command and dissolved any clear distinctions between the PLA and CCP, they'd literally be fascist though. It's like Fascism Light TM
They got away with it the same way they got away with Minoriteam.
No one at Turner was paying attention and if Turner wasn't paying attention that means the FCC wasn't either.
It was censored when it aired on TV and they only aired the uncensored version once as a special with a TV-MA rating instead of TV-14
I was thinking you were going to go with the dicks everywhere. I mean, the censors must have had a fit having to censor all those dicks.
you don't think it was other people that did it, right? the ATHF production team just made two different versions of the episode, one with the dick textures swapped out It wouldn't be all that difficult.
I didn't hear about an alternate version until
brought it up.
Iit's been awhile since I watched that episode. But, that is still more censoring done than usual.
>early or mid 00's (don't remember, not looking it up) so a little before second wave militant political correctness enforcement
>absurdist stoner cartoon
>played late at night on specialty block for adult animation
Maybe the last time period you could get away with something like this, plus difficult to view as malicious racism when put in the context of "dick stealing villain in the cheap flash cartoon about the fast food detectives." Like even if you're the kind of hyper sensitive media critic looking for shit to be offended by, this instance is so silly you'd look like an butthole trying to take the creators to task over it.
It's one thing to have this on a show not targeted towards kids. But then you have Omi from Shoalin Showdown.
He huffs propane.
who cares about chinese honestly? they're not oppressed in the US. if anything THEY are the majority. as far as the world anyway.
My favorite gag in the entire show is when Frylock tells him to call someone to take him home and after the dramatic zoom in Wongburger is just like, "I will." Stupid resolution.
Back in the day, people could understand the context, which is that stuff like this wasn't really making fun of asian people, the humor comes from how ridiculously outdated and crass the stereotype is.
