The Boondocks - I will remain a soldier until the war is won. RIP John Witherspoon RIP Ed Asner RIP Charlie Murphy

Having said all that, it’s pretty smart that he hasn’t talked politics much at all since then but I agree with @soy_king

Actual socialists do not care much for the rainbow gestapo, and the T has made this a lot worse. And the people calling themselves coms and ancoms inspire the same feeling as that picture of Stalin looking down in horror at pantifa losers like ADF. There's a reason "tankie" is a derogatory term on the level of "chud" with modern SJWs.

Well that sucks.

Is this why I cannot find any reference to the time that Uncle Ruckus talks about Guatemalans?

McGruder's feelings on Black culture can be summarized as "Black people! Stop acting so stupid!"

Not just black culture. He hits American culture period in the splash damage.

And that's why he's awesome.

To a point. White people extricate themselves out of nigga moments and thus, don't really suffer the consequences. Wuncler Sr. figures out how to monetize those moments, but a lot of conflicts in The Boondocks are Black people--usually Riley or Robert--creating the situation and it spins out of control. No one told Robert to catfish all those catfishing women. No one told Riley to start a gang war over the candy trade. No one told Black people en masse to riot over not having any chicken.

Hence why I said in the "splash". Black culture is still the ground zero and the focus.

I guess you could call this the cheat sheet of the show.

Its amazing how this hoe saw the entire show and somehow managed to boil it down to "whitey bad" while missing 99% of the introspection on the black community which is the main point.

She saw the R-Kelly episode and deadass thought it was meant to be critiquing Tom giving up his blackness instead of (what huey outright spells for the fucking audience) "not every nigga that gets accused is innocent, stop rioting over dumb shit".

Niggers suffer from a special degree of ignorance.

I'm just amazed at how she literally got the direct exact opposite message of what aaron was outright spelling out.

She literally sided with the ghetto protesters blindly defending rkelly just because he's black, and her issue was that tom wasn't black enough.

How do you even accomplish that? Its like reading "to catch a mockingbird" and coming out thinking "That nigga was clearly guilty, I'm glad he's dead."

This is why, to an extent, I can accept why the new TV seasons of The Boondocks could not come out in the Cancel Culture-Woke™ era. You will have these kinds of viewers wishing wanting more jokes invoking nothing but anti-white episodes and anti-Trump episodes, yet if McGruder did an anti-BLM episode that mocks George Floyd, they would be the first to boycott HBO or Netflix for being anti-black.

You can’t convince these people that they ”understand” The Boondocks if they really believe that they are not their own worst enemy.

The issue is that in this case they actually are their own worst enemy but for the entirely wrong reasons.

The whole point of the episode was aargon going "black people please stop rioting over dumb shit, you're just damaging your causes without any help from whitey and doing more damage to the black community than whitey ever could"

Yes, there are valid critiques of tom (from the perspective of the black community) like the fact that he's a prosecutor instead of a defender and sends people to get assraped in jail (a fate he personally considers worse than death as he's so terrified of being assraped himself) but on that particular episode he was right and the protestors were wrong, that was the lesson being imparted.

I meant to say this by the way Huey is a person who doesn't put up with peoples bullshit but also doesn't complain about how terrible the world around him is while doing nothing to improve upon it I can respect that in a person no matter the politics both in fiction and in real life

Underrated, hidden gem of social commentary from a Season 4 episode. Pointing out that goes against the LGBT+ community is haram.

I think it might actually be commentary on how certain aspects of Black Culture had grown up being influenced to not be particularly considerate to gay people and, with the rapid growth of acceptance of the LGBT community in the early -mid 2010's (which was when Season 4 was made), it would leave a lot of black kids who grew up with "the gansta" life style in a tough spot when dealing with those subjects, especially considering the onset of social media.

One insensitive comment and your reputation is screwed. You know, as I type this out, it might be tackling both points...

Then again, it is Season 4, so I'm likely completely over-thinking it.

I’m legit surprised that trans headcanons for Riley haven’t already begun proliferating on social media.
