Only 150?
How many episodes did they make?

Oh C'mon----Pepe Le Pew is just a funny cartoon character.

His character was meant to be a mockery of the "Gallic Lover."

Agreed.
He is a "Karen" "Hillary", for sure.

Politics perverts reality to service its own agenda.

Is he off limits to be mocked?
Seem like a weird place to draw the line. The 'Gallic Lover' trope has been a creep by Anglo norms for quite awhile even if it was able to be played for laughs up until recently. The joke only ever worked as a result of culture clash but over time the level of clash has increased to the point it doesn't work as a joke for most audiences anymore.

Nobody should ever take Pepe LePew seriously (I'm not talking about the poster---I'm talking about the cartoon character).

He was meant to be portrayed as having tragic flaws. His cartoons seek to instruct people on how NOT to woo women. He was a fool, not to be taken seriously.

Frankenstein's monster isn't so great, either----but is he being "cancelled"?

Nice "bubble" arse, btw.

Is Frankenstein's monster no longer relevant and largely offensive and not-funny?
Apples =/= oranges.

At this point it's uphill battle if anyone wants to rehabilitate the character because his whole shtick is being a creep and not many people laugh at that bit anymore. He's basically season 1 Apu, the character only exists to be part of a joke that not many people find funny anymore.

There's no doubt he'll be posting there, but I'm not sure he'll be making it compulsary to see those posts unless you "follow" him there, or go to the specific post.


I doubt there would be any issue with posts against him (as a site-wide policy), instead relying on an his individual ability to remove posts to\replys on his personal page (or block users from accessing\posting to it), although even then some may remain under an "I don't mind what they say, it's more important that they are talking about me" approach, showing he is still "relevent" to people - Judging by their posts, he is very "relevent" to some on this site...

As to asking for money - were the requests for money related to running the site (understandable, given it is another organisation, rather than him personally, who owns\operates it, and would need funds until advertising (or some other source of funds) commences to help cover costs, or was the fundraising for him\political reasons (which, if connected to this new site would be questionable)?



I'm not expecting it to be subscription based, nor have any requirement to see his posts (worst case I would expect is that new accounts may "follow" his by default, but that this can be stopped by a user, and I don't think the site would even have that)... More likely, it will be a case of taking his favourite features of other platforms and trying to combine them into one platform in order to draw users from those platforms onto this. How well that works out will be interesting to see, given many people may create accounts there, but primarily\solely use the previous sites rather than this new one due to their "contacts" (and history, etc.) already being there...

"Woke" people may not find him funny.
If you haven't guessed, I'm not "woke".

You guys take yourselves too seriously.
And many on the left have a poor sense of humour.

Are you suggesting he might censor posts through deletion?

You're also old, I'm bordering on too old for media companies to care about my eyeballs so our opinions aren't the ones they're listening to. Ask younger people how they feel about Pepe Le Pew.

Also, if the left have a poor sense of humour why are there so few right-wing comedians outside of the niche of 'right wing comedy'? Left wing comedians tend to also be mainstream comedians and not have to rely on pandering to niche audiences like Steven Crowder or the guys Fox News hires to challenge late night shows.

You better lay off that viagra.

Possibly, depending on how the site is designed, but only on "his" page - I doubt that fnord, or others with similar views, would have much risk of their opinions about Mr Trump which were posted on their own accounts\pages on that site being removed... Doubtless fnord will wish to inform everyone should this occur on his account there.
