That link to YouTube actually makes another point; "cancelling" doesn't actually make anything any less available. I'm sure Mr. Skunky Q. McTortureporn has already found new places to publish his ... "literature" (I was gonna say "e621", but then I realized, oh, yeah, you guys do stories a lot, and "vivid description" implies this wasn't visual media). And you can find all the Pepe le Pew and Speedy Gonzalez and Elmer Fudd with a gun and the Censored 13 and you want somewhere on the Internet real easy, often right there on YouTube.

"Problematic" is not a one-size-fits-all label or necessarily a condemnation of an entire work of art. Nor is it a way of dividing movies into Good vs Bad or placing yourself in a morally superior position. It's just an enlightening way of re-seeing films. Happy viewing!-Mark Harris, film historian

I don't know if I've said this before, but Speedy Gonzalez was actually my favorite as a kid. Now, Pepe's usually pretty funny, and definitely stars in the better animated and paced shorts of the two. At least they have excuse of being, you know, over a half century of cultural changes old (unlike the aforementioned Mr. McTortureporn).
