They don’t have any beliefs or values, they just think about whatever combination of words they think will get them the farthest, then they say it. This is why they don’t care about hypocrisy.
Wait, they have something against Bluey? Other than that it sets quite a high bar for dads (and moms)?
(I try to be that cool)
Bluey is a foreign show with a girl main character (although this meme implies the dad is the main character, it’s actually the little girl)
I believe most MAGAs only first heard of Bluey when an episode was removed by Disney distribution for showing the father taking on a mother’s responsibilities to show his kids.
But it is a seriously heart felt and well written program for children. It actually fun to watch compared to children’s programs PBS has produced recently.
The dad is the real hero of that show. Well, for me at least.
Bluey was first recommended to me by a dad of a then 5yo, and like the one in the show he was very enthusiastic about playing an emotionally honest and complete role in his child’s life, as well as messing up sometimes or, well, being a bit of a child himself.
I remember one episode of the first 2 seasons where he played with his kids too rough and didn’t even notice until the younger one started crying, then he apolgized and they resolved the situation. These moments make Bluey stand out sky high against most other content kids in that age bracket are offered.
Seriously, what does MAGA have against Bluey? It shows them what it’s really like to be pro children & family.

It shows them what absolute shit fathers they are by comparison. And it shows their kids that healthier parenting styles exist.
It’s harder to continue abusing someone once they learn the abuse isn’t “normal,” and that they’re not just being “ungrateful,” “spoiled,” “problematic,” or “entitled” whenever they complain about the abuse or ask for a basic need to be met.
yes, this is exactly what I meant
I need tosee that episode because that sounds extremely wholesome.
Season 2, episode 13, dad baby.
Not available on Disney+, readily available on the high seas.
Amazing episode.
Wait…THAT episode was removed?? What the fuck? There’s absolutely nothing wrong with it. It was a dad playing, yet again, pretend with his kids in the Bluey way. Disney, as always, can go fuck right off.
yup… supposedly it was because they have “strict guidelines” surrounding birth and body themes.
Family meeting (fluffy episode of season 3) wasn’t on right away, and they have also modified some specific sound effects related to things like bathroom noises and such.
Just…wow. Welp, if ever I needed a good reason to go buy the physical copies, it would be this right here. Assuming the dvd release doesn’t have any of that bs censorship.
Thank you!
For the record - I highly recommend all of them.
The emotional depth on some episodes is staggering. They cover a lot more than you’d expect in a kids show, and with thought and care.
Yup, bought the Blu-ray set for ~$35 so I could have a hard copy, the show deserves it.
I believe that episode was Dadbaby. Bandit pretends to be pregnant and ends up “giving birth” to Bingo. It’s fucking hilarious and Disney are a bunch of small-dicked fuckwits for removing it. They have also removed quite a few small scenes from other episodes too, such as a horse taking a dump at the Market.
Get a VPN, go to abc.net.au/iview, sign up for free and stream the episodes as they were meant to be seen.
Isn’t that like… a trope done on like every beloved sitcom Including the Brady Bunch?
It was more specific than that. It was the dad pretending to be pregnant and give birth.
Wait, Disney pulled that episode? What for? He just carries his kid around in a papoose and pretends to be pregnant because it’s a fun game for the kids.
Because the US has a bunch of delusional fundies in it who unironically think kids should be told babies are delivered by storks? 🤷
Right, I forgot that there’s a whole lot of people who just lie to their kids for no real reason.
The answer to that is always the same, has been for 10 years.
We just put it on the pile. Forget nothing. For later. Hopefully.
I think that happened on Full House
I used to play it for my blue heeler when I left the house. I watched the first episode to see if it was ok for my almost 3yo. I’m never letting her watch that episode, I’m not committing to that freeze game 🤣.
I think if you have something against Bluey you probably just haven’t seen it. If you’ve ever been in a family or wanted to be in a family (in any roll) it can appeal to you. Personally I like to watch with a glass of wine and have a healthy cry.
God, I’m glad I’m not the only one. Bluey has made me cry more times than I can count.
I try to somewhat base my parenting off of Bluey. I ask myself, “Would Chili or Bandit act this way? Would they look at me like a bad parent?”
It’s such a good show. I will fist fight anyone who says otherwise or has a problem with the show.
Cricket 😭
So much same. Such a loving family model.
I have not watched much, but some cousins were in town and wanted to watch it.
I got sucked in. Someday I hope to get to watch it.
Just keep in mind its not a realistic depiction of real life parenting. Its a wonderful ideal and a great show, but its pretty well unattainable.
I like to be in the Kings Hawaiian Roll in my family.
“called Epstein terrific”?
This guy is mentioned tens of thousands of times in the Epstein files, and has abused children personally.

As I’ve said numerous times and will continue to say… The Republican Party is beyond hypocrisy. It’s beyond double standards. The is no objective reality. There is only what definitions, interpretations, or perspectives serve them. Whether or not they are currently emphasizing long-term, short-term, or something in between or what audience they are aiming their disinformation at might influence what they say but the truth itself is irrelevant. There is no good-faith, only an attempt to influence how they are seen so that they can abuse that misconception later. They are wholely disingenuous.
Unfortunately, some corporate and Zionist Democrats are also picking up the strategy and we’ve started living in a country where trust and the rule of law is just another avenue by which to exploit others. Admittedly, it’s been like that for most of the nations history but there was at least a pretense that people could believe in, albeit naively.
Things need to change, fast, before the entire population descends into might (and power, money) makes right at all levels of society.
I’ve cut people out of my life because they reposted Mrs Rachel as being antisemitic for caring about Palestinian children. That’s when I realized, no jokes no reason no logic can get through to them.
In the words of Kyle Reese
“It can’t be bargained with, it can’t be reasoned with,it doesn’t feel pity or pain. And it will not stop, until you are dead”
Bluey hate was not about immorality. It was about emasculation. The dad isn’t running the household like an army base (ironically the most socialist of all government bodies). Fathers must be alert and ready for threats to his family. Anything to do with children is women’s business and feminizing. Femme clearly deteriorates masculinity. Big strong masculinity crumbles in the face of anything that isn’t eating steel and living in caves.
Nothing the right says or does is genuine except for the desperation to be powerful.
It’s the Teletubbies are bad all over again
That’s not a double standard. It’s just a shitty standard.
