Don't care; there is a huge push to whitewash history including most if not all of Looney Tunes for "racism". I find that nothing short of stupid and disturbing, 1984 isn't supposed to be a manual of our future and present.

Who specifically is pushing for the whitewashing of most looney tunes episodes? Can you provide any evidence on that claim or sources?

There really are just 11 specific episodes that are very obviously and nefariously racist.

And to be clear, the US government isn’t censoring them. You are allowed to go watch them if you can find them. 3 are in the public domain. It’s just that the company that owns the rights to them (United Artists) isn’t interested in airing them or selling them.

If you wrote a book or a song and decided later that you didn’t want to sell it or perform it anymore, that’s just you exercising your personal copyright and property rights, not 1984-style government censorship. That is actually the opposite of state control.

Most so-called "liberals", aka "the Left". Of course, this concerns everything overall instead of just Loonie Tunes. This is not unlike villifying Columbus or the Founding Fathers or the Confederate boots on the ground and attempts to remove them from history. Who- or whatever the subject being put up for whitewashing is, it's stupid and disturbing and they are not getting my vote come hell or high waters.

We must appreciate and respect history, both the good and the bad, lest we are doomed to repeat them.

The media goes where the money is, for better or worse. The money right now is in whitewashing everything including history. "Diversity", "Equity", and "Inclusion" (aka DEI), which you might be more familiar with.

Speaking as a minority (Japanese-American), sincerely fuck that noise with a rusty spork.
