Does anyone else think that the popular "Hanna-barbera" cartoon shows from the 60's & 70's were racist?
I have asked this question before at other websites. The main shows I'm talking about are "Yogi Bear", "Scooby-Doo", "Hong Kong Phooey", "Magilla Gorilla" and a few others.
You don't have to be high on weed to see how stereotypical these shows are.
By the way, I never liked any of those shows. The 90 degree angle character animation is real cheesy.

Oh, yeah! Jose & The Pussycats was pretty suggestive for a young boy like me at the time. OMG...am I a perv?
I'm sorry, I don't see it. Unless you're saying that the animals were supposed to represent members of certain ethnic groups, just based on their names. But I never saw that, and I still don't. Yogi Bear, after all, had his name based on Yogi Berra. Magilla Gorilla was just a rhyme (They also had Squiddly Diddly). Hong Kong Phooey was a parody of the kung fu movies that were popular at the time, along with being one of their comedy super heroes. And Scooby Doo was just a stoned dog.
