wow subtley racist

BEST CHILDRENS CARTOON EVER

[milowerx]

@narbagepl0x I dont see how it could be racist when the entire cast was Indian and the co-creator himself was Indian. What did you see specifically that was racist?

[narbagepl0x]

@milowerx the correct term is "Native American"

also this video is stereotyping native americans as savage beasts

[milowerx]

@narbagepl0x Um not to nitpick but this is East Indians... from India? NOT Native Americans, so yes Indians is the right term. How on earth do you get savage beasts?

I remember when this was on the contest for new series on CN. I still can't believe Kids Next Door won over Swaroop, I thought this was ingenious. Of course, CN was heading in a different direction at that time.

@sighedeffects The wrong direction in my estimation but whatever... Thanks for commenting on my cartoon!

Dude, this totally deserved to have its own series.

And instead of material like this, we get total drama island...

@narbagepl0x did you even watch the video? they all have INDIAN accents. they think the cow is sacred which is INDIAN. the boy talked about his native INDIA. the grandma wears a traditional INDIAN robe. dont correct someone if you obviously dont know what your talking about.

This was pretty funny, but kind of racist.

I remember the scene where the cow was leaking milk was in all the commercials.
