Laughter is becoming a premium, as the hypocrisy of Hollywood includes an overwhelming troupe of gun control activists promoting the disarming of Americans, even though a heavy arsenal of firearms enhances the intensity of action films. The animated sect of the entertainment world has taken the next step and deviated to aggressive and caustic editing of classic cartoons to phase out guns in timeless gags featuring loveable characters of the past century.
Recently, the brass at the Warner Brothers brand of the “Looney Tunes” opted to begin a surgical campaign removing all visual references to guns in cartoons from the 1940’s and beyond. The humorous protagonists of Bugs Bunny, Yosemite Sam, and Elmer Fudd are set to undergo indoctrinating revisionism, with Fudd being the first casualty, and effectively waiting for their approval of background checks, as guns are planned to be erased from the franchise’s animated ecosystem. Fudd’s rifle has been vaporized, as the shift to political correctness continues.
The cosmic shift to pacifism lacking elements of the “wild wild west” within the cartoon subculture marks the radical nature of the current political climate of a nation in limbo as the 2024 crucial election is on the near horizon.
While critics and the Second Amendment community responded by the blatant propaganda move by Warner Brothers to revise entertainment history through the progressive cleansing of intellectual property, a writer from the studio on the cleansing project attacked the commonsense response to those opposed to the pivot towards preserving the original narrative of cartoons.
Animated genre writer and a member of the campaign for the gratuitous editing of classic productions, Michael Ruocco, employed Twitter to blast gun rights advocates in engaging on an “X” (formerly known as Twitter) rant attacking masculinity and insinuating that those to choose to exercise their fundamental rights in owning firearms are lacking in certain male capacities. In responding to the valid complaints of end-users, anti-gun activist managed to offend both males practicing reasonable self-defense as well as older Americans. “You know how many gags we can do with guns? Fairly few. And the best were already done by the old guys. It’s limiting. It was never about the gun, it was about Elmer’s flawed, challenged masculinity.”
At least he did not include the tiresome phrase of “Okay boomer” in his initial diatribe.
As far as conjuring rumors of apparent inadequacies endured by legions of men failing to live up to satisfying the bedroom standards of their partners as a correlative function of reasonable self-defense by skeptics, Ruocco has secured his “he/her/may/badger” status in the aftermath the controversial post. Haphazardly, he has earned viscerally elbowed his way onto the lucrative future lecture circuit of speakers seizing profiting from the groupthink of college campuses, coupling with the live television fictional iteration and entertainment inflation of iconic “professional” wrestler Hulk Hogan. The plot cannot be more delicious and decadent than a 1980’s midday soap opera dissected, parsed and distributed by the Chinese government in a prelude to Deng’s “One county, two party system” industrial-grade propaganda.
Ruocco continued his tyrannical “X” platform manifesto to quote the usual platitudes of the gun rights activist movement in citing mass-murder (shooting incidents) as the majority of firearms-related deaths in the nation. While the falsehood is regularly debunked, with no thanks to the tainted Center for Disease Control (CDC) statistics, anti-gun liberals regularly choose indifference in formulating a detrimental and intellectually dishonest narrative that circumvents logic and reason to incite their base. Where is the room for hilarity?
Within the irreverent plot of the Christopher Buckley novel “Thank You for Smoking”, the chief characters discuss the insane idea of cutting the act of smoking out of classic films, and replacing the cigarettes and cigars with alternative images. As a testament to the principle that fiction parallels life, the current zombie-nightmare emanating from the Warner Brothers studios indicates a dwindling and unsettling societal IQ, and that those in the entertainment industry can be their own worst enemy as they have amnesia to the fact of the presence of armed security providing a wall of defense throughout Hollywood.
