The Disturbing Secret Behind an Iconic Cartoon: Sexual Abuse (2018)

I grew up watching that show, and can’t ever enjoy it like I used to. The 90s weren’t as great as they make them out on Portlandia. A lot of lower middle class kids turned to cable tv for escape when they felt like they had no allies.

This is good reporting…

But it hurts knowing what entertained you when you had very few allies came at someone else’s expense.

(Allowing someone like that to do shoe after show… shouldn’t have happened. Full stop.)

Also: this was previously posted:

(But trying to leave a substantive comment rather than come in and yell “first” like it’s slashdot.)

There was a documentary made also, perhaps based on this article?

Title needs (2018).

All kids love log.

The pattern I keep seeing is: if the art is deviant the artist usually is too.

It’s so sad that people covered for this creep for so long. I could never watch Ren & Stimpy even as a kid. It was obviously the product of a degenerate mind.
