• They’re mad cause she’s black in the new cartoon lol. I dunno I haven’t seen it and don’t care to, so perhaps it’s actually a shit show. But let’s just say the rabid anger at the show feels suspicious.

        It’s a show in which the main character, Velma says

        I spit truth without a filter, like every comedian before Hashtag “MeToo”

        It’s been designed to maximise outrage from as many camps as possible, to drive clicks, engagement, youtube videos (my recommendations has been flooded with ‘velma sucks’ videos - most of which are coming from libs, not reactionaries, though that might just be my feed being a bit curated after so long.

    Velma. I think it’s that new 2023 show on HBO, Ig. Some fans of Scooby Doo don’t like it not just because of the race swapping (obviously, something about most of the characters either being cynical assholes, braindead idiots, or both and the show reliant on meta humor and social commentary as jokes), but I feel like others do hate cuz “dis hwite caraktur is now blakc” and probably for racist reasons.

    Like I didn’t enjoy the pilot either (not my cup of tea). I just moved on with my life.
