minus-squareEmpricorn@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down14·2 months agoIs anyone able to say this meme isn’t straight-up racist? One of the show’s only persons-of-color, and he’s literally at a gang hideout looking for crack. WTF!?
minus-squaresamus12345@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·2 months agoMost of the cast were people of color. Bob, Mr. Hooper, and Linda are the only white ones from back then I can think of off the top of my head.
minus-squareEmpricorn@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months ago“Most”? Is that true? I genuinely can’t remember…
minus-squaresamus12345@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoMaria, Luis, Susan, David, and Gordon are the non-white ones I can remember. That makes 5 out of 8, which is most.

minus-squarethreelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.worksOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12arrow-down2·2 months agoIsn’t that kind of the point of “bertstrips”?

Not really my kind of humour, but I’m trying to populate some of the communities which were on feddit.de, which has since shut down.
