    1. that’s not 900 shows

    2. your list includes things like;

    Calvin and Hobbes: While Calvin’s dad isn’t exactly foolish (he’s a patent attorney) and just as irritated by Calvin’s antics as Calvin’s mom, there’s also plenty of strips showing him trolling Calvin by telling him outrageous lies about how the world works (such as the world being black and white until the '60s, or wind being caused by trees sneezing, or Calvin not being brought by a stork but a pterodactyl, etc.).

    Which is notably not what you were complaining about.

    1. there’s a difference between it existing in some shows throughout the history of mankind and it being the overwhelming majority of television like you implied. Every show I listed was popular and well recieved. Your list includes Fan Fiction which isn’t even television.





  • Why assume anyone who disagrees with you is only doing so because of a character flaw?

    When did I say anyone who disagrees with me has a character flaw? It has just been my experience that whenever someone complains that they are being discriminated against for being a white male, as soon as anyone looks into it turns out they got in trouble / got yelled at because of some action they had taken. As OP said: happens all the time.

    Also note that saying “maybe that person was upset because of an action you had taken instead of the colour and shape of your genitals” is not a personal attack. I am neither condoning the yelling nor condemning some unknown action. I am presenting an alternative view to the scenario that has been presented with very little information.
