Ohh well during my times we had this fearful dog, powerpuff girls, samurai jack I guess and Dexter? Ah and ed edd and eddy
Idk maybe I missed some messages in them
I guess there was also this stupid Czech thing where this animal who digs in the soil whatever it is called in English was having all sorts of stupid stuff happening
You know what I never got anything of the kind from these things. They were just funny mostly and kinda scary in some places. I don’t know, maybe it is something subconscious.
I just remember wanting to slice everyone with a lightsaber at some point. I guess there were plenty of lessons about dismemberment in Star Wars.
Actually Star Wars had plenty of these lessons but from the perspective they were kind of… well. Fitting for a monk more than a normal human. Not really that great.
Lucas is nuts claiming it was a kids movie series. Maybe phantom menace but even that was like cmon people got sliced in half and politics lol. I am a rice field worker if OT are children movies.
You don’t even understand half of the Vader, Luke stuff until rewatch when you are much older. Actually I almost went to monastery or something thanks to Star Wars and got super religious and dogmatic at one point roleplaying a Jedi of course for a whole school year or something. That was quite embarrassing
Then I got a bible and started reading and repeated to everyone who wanted to hear and those who didn’t the selected holy warfare quotes. That was also quite embarrassing
If the bible had more warfare quotes who knows what I would be doing today, fortunately there are only like three in total. Unlike in Koran I guess. Poor muslim kids.
Still better than the cursed smartphone zombies we all turn into
Not my generation, no. It was always about enterprising and cunning more like. Something like American dream and all that. Get rich and stuff. I really don’t think many people were raised with a focus on altruistic values. It was singular kids that seemed to be kind when others were rather trying to climb the elementary school social ladder and were taught that money is the measure of all
I was taught loyalty is very important personally and that kinda bite me in the butt in the end
Remember when giving a shit about others was touted as a virtue?
Empathy is Weakness, Ignorance is Strength, Equality is Woke.
They don’t like being reminded.
I don’t think it ever was actually. At least I don’t remember anything like that. Do you remember something?
Children’s TV shows

Well and the Tom and Jerry too I think?
Courage taught us to be empathetic and stand up for those we loved, no matter how scary the challenge was
Ed Edd and Eddy taught us the importance of the family we choose. Even if your parents aren’t always looking out for you, your friends are.
Dexter mostly taught me not to be an insufferable “intellectual” asshole like that little fucker was
Tom and Jerry probably had a message? I dunno but it was fun
Was never interested in Samurai Jack

When was that? Surely you don’t mean the 50’s?
Generally, when we were kids, whenever that may have been. We were taught that sharing and compassion were good things.
That’s fair, and in that case I’m glad that it never stopped being touted as a virtue.
Even if there have always been selfish idiots who fail to learn that lesson ruining it for the rest of us.
