MODERATORS
Johnny Bravo's one of those rare cartoons where you got raw, condensed toxic masculinity in a character - and the entire show he's just the punching bag and none of us batted an eye because we just immediately accepted that his behavior was dickish and every woman was justified in kicking his ass.
Yeah, it's satirical, and the comedy is seeing him shut down for his behavior.
So we can agree if it came out today it would be labeled as 'Woke'
If it came out today, it might hit that sweet spot of being too edgy for liberal parents and too "woke" for conservatives
I was kind of thinking the opposite, because satire goes over a lot of audience's heads now. He'd be taken out behind the barn like Pepe Le Pew.
