It's been mentioned that sexual and other inappropriate stuff is ending up in children s programming in recent years. I now see why. Pay attention to your in class shows. Yes, Americas Funniest Home Videos now has things like a priest rubbing his privates in church and crossdressers getting their dresses ripped off. The 1st time I ran Disney sponsored episode yesterday, I accidentally let the 3rd graders see the priest playing with himself, though it didn't register in their minds, but it did the Korean teacher. He was like, "ooooooohh!" with a voice inflection of being fascinated by it. I immediately made the video skip ahead and then it turned out to be a great video by skipping that part when I showed it again.
The show is mostly clean and very fun material, but they are slipping sick crap in for like a split 10 seconds once in each episode. This is a family/childrens show I'm talking about, not an adult entertainment show. The kids love this show and it carries a lot of value, but edit out or skip parts you know are inappropriate. Dang, they're really getting tacky these days with sneaking in sexually charged scenes into kids shows.
What else are you seeing in children shows that is just too tacky to be comfortable showing? |

To be fair, if you were to rewatch some of the crap we watched as children now you'd be shocked at all the sexuality and crazy political messages thrown in there. But, like your students, it just didn't register on that level when we were their age. Instead it brainwashed little girls to dress like sluts and boys to beat up on one another. I wasn't terribly interested or aware in the hysterical anti-Communist propoganda involved in Transformers or that He Man was challenging the omnipresence of God when I was 6. They just kicked ass as far as I was concerned. I doubt kids understand that SpongeBob is basically a stoner's paradise, for example.
Having said that, I decided to find a version of a song on youtube yesterday for my camp class at the last minute but then got extremely paranoid and scared that a phallus or something would pop up. Luckily only a nice set of boobs showed up so the Koreans just didn't recognize them.
ZING! |

Those are just the bits you see. I was on youtube one night with the search 'subliminal' and there was a New Age sounding guy's video about how he'd noticed subliminal messages on advertisements on the computer, like still photographic images on pop up ads. Things like Mom and Dad with their kid between, just their heads. And, on Dad's cheek as he kissed his kid's cheek, the word 'SEX' scrawled three times. They are light in colour and embedded in the pixels but register on the subconscious mind.
Another youtube video (search 'subliminals') found bizarre stuff in Disney animation videos when he stopped/freezefamed/paused. For example two mice in a rollercoaster car. One is sprawled back as if it's getting serviced with the other mouse doing the servicing. An insert, which is a book the servicing mouse is reading while keeping the momentum so to speak, has some full blown sexual imagery. What is that doing there?
The theory is that supercharging people with sexual interest keeps them fixated on basic need/kness jerk and their sensual cravings, which can be subliminally transferred to shopping, borrowing money to shop, and never looking seriously at what's going on in the world. Particularly the roundabout that's going on keeping them paying taxes, in debt, tolerating inflation, an economy that feeds the bankers loaning out money, wars that feed the banks yet kill people, etc.. In effect rendering people helpless. More animal craving than higher awareness.
What's it doing in DISNEY? The younger you start the better.
This is their theory (this guy on youtube and others like him) and I think the whole premise is absurd. That would mean there are huge, controlling interests engineering our lives using technologies like mind control. One would have to be paranoid to assume such evil exists in a democracy. I drink too much coffee to risk being paranoid. It would throw me over the edge. So those guys are boffo. |

Western society has become such a contrast. Everyone runs around paranoid of the potential pervert watching their kids, then they laugh at a priest rubbing his privates on TV (and the kids watch this too). That's American humor anymore -- so much is sexually-based.
It's getting worse, and I have started wondering what other cultures think of it. Strike that... it makes them assume Americans are sleeping with everyone and fooling around when they're probably doing that a lot less than Koreans. |

| I don't know anyone that swears off Disney movies 'because they contain subliminal, mind controlling, mental programming', do you? And if it's in Disney cartoons you can be damn sure it's in any other kind of video entertainment. Ooooooo scary. So more hair of the dog, serve it up! |

I showed the Simpsons movie to my kids yesterday. If you show that one to your kids, you might want to skip over the scene that flashes a shot of Bart's doodle. 
(As for the other scenes, nobody took any notice of Otto's bong hit. Except me. Insert Homer's hungry drooling sound here.) |
