They did the same thing with Stan Lee at LA Comic Con this year. Bringing dead people back with AI is absolutely distasteful and soulless indeed.

Happy 55th, PBS. You really gave us so much good content, and that they got us one of the most longest running children's series ever even though it was on NET before but PBS made it well known.

I would never entrust my ID to any site just to verify my age. That is not happening ever.

Yep. I even cancelled my own CR subscription yesterday in light of this news.

After finding out that Crunchyroll decided to switch to OOONA for subtitles, I've officially ended my Crunchyroll subscription. It was a hard decision, but I guess I've gotta keep on sailing the seven seas for anime. #FreePalestine

I wanna stress, it is good that dudes are finally here. In fact, UNFORTUNATELY, people don't take our concerns seriously unless the person pushing back is also a cis white het dude. So, actually, yeah, we need more dudes doing exactly this.

It just took a while, is all.

Just as a side note, I think women were like, "Hey, can you guys please pay attention to this shit happening on YouTube?" And then finally a fight over whether or not One Piece is political popped up in recent weeks, and dudes have finally come to the table for the conversation.

As of late I've been seeing a whole lot more TikTok and YouTube creators FINALLY pushing back against Nazi weeb rhetoric. Like, are we finally tired of dudes downplaying the portrayal of our real world through anime/manga fiction? Are we finally not putting up with it anymore?

This is why I don't trust age verification systems where it prompts you to upload your scanned ID.

Just in case Elon's seal of un-approval isn't enough, believe me that Dead End is perfect Halloween viewing for kids and young people - especially (but not only) if they identify anywhere on the queer or neurodiverse spectrum

It's probably going to be a very odd day

Screenshot of Elon Musk tweeting "this is not ok" as a reply to Libs of TikTok posting "omg. Dead end paranormal park, a show on netflix, is pushing pro-teangeder on CHILDREN. This show is advertised for 7-year-olds. It's being promoted on netflix kids now. Parents - beware" with an attached photo of Barney from the show.

Elon's tweet has 3.6k comments, 8.7k retweets, 60k likes and 4.2million views
