Christians are threatening to boycott Netflix over 'wicked' superhero drag queen cartoon

[DonViejo]

By Bil Browning · Friday, July 6, 2018

The Christian Film and Television Commission is demanding Netflix cancel plans for an upcoming drag queen superhero cartoon, saying the show is “driven by a politically correct transvestite agenda.” Netflix, predictably, hasn’t deigned to acknowledge the ridiculousness.

A petition started by the group asks supporters, “Netflix offers wholesome shows like ‘Clifford, the Big Red Dog’ and even ‘VeggieTales.’ But do we really want our children to sit down to watch a fun new superhero cartoon series and instead have them lose their innocence to sexual wickedness?”

At time of publication, over 26,000 people had signed the petition.

The group also strangely insinuates that the company is forcing employees to create the series against their will. They claim the show will cause children to “lose their innocence to sexual wickedness.”

“Netflix has taken the skill sets of those who create wholesome, educational content for children and has inserted the homosexual agenda into their content,” the would-be censors claim.

1. They should boycott it then.

NETFLIX is a subscriber service if you ain't subscribed you ain't getting it.

If they have any reception in their homosexual-proof rural bunkers

3. Oh for christ's sake

4. What a bunch of pathetic snowflakes!

5. Not every cartoon is intended for children

A lot of Japanese anime is definitely not. The people objecting need to learn to deal with the world.

There are dozens of animated movies and TV shows that were intended for adults. Just see Wikipedia's lists:

6. But they are OK with our "Groper In Chief"?

Now there is the real embodiment of sexual wickedness, all you hypocritical slimeballs.

9. That's the fucking irony of these morons.

They support Trump and all the filth and ooze that he brings. They support his unconscionable decision to separate children from their families, then they claim that they support kids. I'm pretty sure Jesus would hate these assholes.

7. Now if they would just stop raping little children

then I might listen to them. Also, what a great thing for Netflix to offer positive role models. Good for them.

10. "Christians".. they were already boycotting netflix

because of .. wait for it.. Obama!

11. I seriously doubt Netflix will notice

Besides, If Netflix buckles on this, they will undoubtedly go after Hulu and the Handmaid's Tail next.

12. I wish Christians would boycott this country and get the fuck out !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

13. Perhaps they should just skip viewing it, instead.

What a concept, eh?

They’ll be giving it fabulous publicity!
