Trying to think of anything relatively fascistic about the animation. Might need to rewatch it.

>>190878
It's a fucking reindeer! What possible problem could they have with it?

>>190881
If I had to guess, it's because some kid gets bullied for having a birth defect and runs away to join a gang of misfits who were all cast out from society for being different.

take your pick. these people literally hate everything that is beautiful and good in the world.

>>190878
For fucks sake there should be a study done to find out how all these leftist became braindamaged. Did their mothers smoke too much weed while they were in the womb, or is there another environmental factor?
Why do leftists want to destroy all classics?

I also wholeheartedly agree with Trump Jr.

It makes perfect sense why they hate it so much. Rudolph is their polar opposite.

>Rudolph is a special and unique character
>His attempts to change himself to fit in brought him only misery
>He saved Christmas and found true happiness by accepting himself for what he is rather than trying to live a lie

>SJW's are so similar and mundane that the half-assed NPC meme struck one hell of a nerve
>The bedrock of their lives is to seek happiness by changing themselves to try to fit in and stay in lockstep with popular opinion/consensus/political correctness. To suggest that this lifestyle might bring misery is the highest heresy to them.
>They are incapable of loving themselves for who they are, and feel compelled to adopt a persona where they are a demi-fluid omnipsuedosexual genderkin

>>190878
How in the hell is a leftwing film from the 60s about a Homosexual reindeer and a Homosexual elf trying to find their ways after being shunned by their respective conservative-traditionalist societies "too rightwing" in 2018?

>>190878
>"Rainbow puss!"
Guys, were they time travelers?

>>190878
I'm going to need a link to see just wtf their problem is.

>>190901
But isn't it about not judging others by their differences/appearances and letting giving everyone a chance to express their personal talents? I think it's a great story to teach children, regardless of politics.

>>190903
That it is. But I guess the author never watched it to the end. Assumptions is often the biggest, and most used, tool in a leftists toolbox.

>>190878
This is gay, rudolph is the fucking ur example of "diversity is our strength" programming.

>>190905
Diversity is only good if everyone acts and thinks the same in a leftist utopia. Basically an oxymoron, like "communism will work... eventually".

>>190882
But... but the message was that being different is good since your unique skills make you valuable... how do they fuck that up?

>>190907
>unique
>skills make you valuable
I think I might have found the part leftists object to...

>>190881
Its the Frankfurt School at work my dude.

>>190895
>Homosexual reindeer
Rudolph wasn't a homosexual. He had a crush on that female reindeer, Clarisse or something I think her name was, unless she was a trap.
>>190905
The "diversity" leftists want is really just replacement. Having a diversity of skills is fine and healthy for a nation.

>>190881
The left will get mad over anything.

I’m beginning to love this site

>>190878
They Hate it because its a part of white culture.

>>190922
Mmm yes, best standard imageboard /pol/.

>>190924
This
It hasn't been bastardized, so they want it destroyed.

>>190901
It's hilarious at what was progressive (and likely made by Jews) 60 years ago is maligned today by modern progressive Jews. Actually talented and creative Jews (even if a bit subversive) would be horrified at the weapons their descendants lob now.

>>190901
>look at these fictional strawman antagonists antagonizing the main character for the purpose of being proved wrong at the end of the movie, isn't this movie so evil?
And then everyone fucking clapped.

>>191105
Ikr. There's nothing offensive/controversial about it.
The whole point of the movie was that judging others by their appearances/differences is bad; but by enduring the bullying, and seeking out a means to use his own unique talents, Rudolf was able to make a name for himself an earn respect among his peers.
Really makes you think.

never liked christmas until now

While we're in the Christmas spirit, here is another classic that is being place on the sacrificial alter of SJW.

>"Baby, It's Cold Outside" is getting a chilly response from Canadian radio stations.
>At least two of the country's biggest radio operators — Rogers Media and Bell Media — say they've decided to pull the controversial Christmas favourite out of their rotations this year.
>Earlier this week, Cleveland radio station WDOK-FM announced it was no longer playing the song in response to listener feedback[1]. Some took issue over lyrics where one singer is trying to persuade the other to stay inside, with exchanges that include, "What's in this drink?" and "Baby, don't hold out."

We should team up with /pol/ and protest by having everyone call the station and request "You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch" over and over until Christmas.

>>190891
This post made me less depressed.
>>190901
These fucks always talk about how (((viewers))) are noticing shit and how (((they))) are calling shit out. We all need to just start asking them to tell us who (((these))) people are. Fucking kikes, the lot of them.

Critical Theory is about analyzing something, picking out elements that justify your victimhood complex and/or agree with what you believe and/or say what you want the media to say, so you can paint that media as a raxist secist phobohomic piece of transh.
"Pokemon promotes child abuse and animal abuse!"
"Yu-Gi-Oh promotes gambling and violence!"
"Spider-Man is sexist because his girlfriends keep dying!"
"Naruto is sexist because the girl ninjas aren't as strong as Madara Uchiha!"
"Rudolph isn't the story of a different kid learning his place in the world and learning to contribute to society, he's the story of a poor little babs being abused until he's useful! It's transphobic!"
"Batman is sexist because Batman's mom died and all the wamen are too sexy but Batman isn't!"
"My Little Pony is RACIST, SEXIST, HOMOPHOBIC, AND SMART-SHAMING!"

>>191888
>Smart-shaming
Oh god, I thought it couldn't possibly be real. Should've known not to underestimate just how retarded these people can be...

>>191809
>It's criticism and that's it. It isn't about destroying anything
See, the problem with that is that it is criticism used to justify destruction. "Critical theory" itself may simply be about picking things apart and finding the underlying tones and themes, but those observations are then used as a justification for censoring or otherwise removing the offending film/book/whatever from circulation. There's no reason to analyze anything under Critical Theory other than to find some kind of fault with it.

A perfect example is the controversy that >>191672 brought up, the removal of "Baby It's Cold Outside" from a radio station because some SJW faggot thinks it's about rape. Analyzing that song from the perspective of Critical Theory could lead to the conclusion that, although the intent of the lyricist was just to write a song about cutesy flirtation, the patriarchal attitudes of the era that person lived in were deeply embedded into the fiber of his being, and as such the finished song is about rape even though it's not actually about rape. Basically, because the author of the song lived in an era in which these supposedly patriarchal or rapey attitudes were accepted, the song he wrote advocates rape. What does this mean? Well, because in Current Year these "patriarchal" attitudes from the past have been designated as Wrongthink by the social justice club, the song now cannot be accepted as part of our popular culture. The actual intent or meaning of the lyrics is rendered irrelevant because of some faggoty, uptight college kid's personal subjective opinions of both the intent of the song itself and the morality of a past era. From a SOCJUS perspective, there is no other possible view and no other argument matters.

In a nutshell, that's all Critical Theory is: nothing but a bunch of wacky mental gymnastics used to justify censorship. That's its only purpose and that's all it ever accomplishes. It's fundamentally no different than similar arguments made in the past by religious authorities to discredit or censor texts that went against Christian scripture. To say that Critical Theory itself is just an analytical tool that does no damage is missing the point. A hammer is only a tool, but if it's being used to bash someone's brains in then it's destructive.

>the underlying tone of the film is, "Deviation from the norm will be punished unless exploitable."
This observation is actually a little ironic, considering that "Deviation from the norm will be punished unless exploitable" is basically the unofficial slogan of the modern left.

>>191810
>Also, "now"? These criticisms of Rudolph have been around for a while now. This isn't a new thing; it isn't something Huffpost came up with; Huffpost just condensed the criticisms that were being spread into a coherent video.
Also, this point is completely irrelevant. It doesn't matter how long this objection to Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer has been around, or whether it was dreamed up last night by some snotty editorialist at the HuffPost or some snotty academic over a decade ago. This is probably the first OP has ever heard of it and likely the first anyone on this board has ever heard of it, since most of us here don't follow the kinds of """""intellectual""""" circles that such observations would likely be discussed in. I know I've never heard any of this prior to reading this thread.

Whether the HuffPost is the author of this asinine criticism or simply the curator of it doesn't matter; it's a moronic, baseless objection to a beloved Christmas special, cooked up by someone with too much time on his hands for no other reason than to take a steamy shit on something that has brought joy to millions of happy children. This analysis, as well as everything else Critical Theory has ever come up with, deserves to be ridiculed as the empty garbage that it is, regardless of who happens to be spewing it at a given moment.

>>191904
Yeah, a feminist blog seriously claimed MLP S1E1 was their new word for "Anti-Intellectual", "Smart-Shaming", because the pretty purple Unicorn learns she needs to go away from Canterlot and go to Ponyville and make some friends, so the magic of their friendship can save the day.
...Do you ever have one of those moments where you feel like an addict who just became lucid for a few seconds, and you wonder when the world became like this? SJWs said "This sexist" about a show starring a purple horse named Twilight fucking Sparkle.

>>190884
When do we just start another holocaust?

>>192580
When more than 51% of conservatives would support such a thing.
Which means we need to shift the window, redpill more normies, and fight the leftist lies.
We're done taking leftism's shit lying down.

>>192630
I'm afraid we're not gonna be able to shift the Overton window much farther than it's already been shifted. At this point, if we want to get serious, we'll have to convince the fence-sitters and unaffiliated that we're the good guys in this situation.

Huffington post has to stir shit up around Christmas time to get clicks.
Last year it was the song Baby it's Cold Outside, this year it's a traditional cartoon.
This whole thing is about censorship, plain and simple. Those commies deserve a bullet.

>>190878

Nice.
