Two Bluey episodes pulled by ABC

[icyfroth]

Fans and families have been left shocked after the ABC pulled two episodes of beloved cartoon Bluey, due to “racist” connotations.

As families around the world get more and more hooked on Bluey, they’re also adding new and unlikely words to their vocabulary.

“Cheese and Crackers …”

“For real life …”

“100 dollar bucks …”

If these words sound at all familiar to you and your little ones, you’ve definitely watched your fair share of the popular ABC series.

All are very innocent when used in everyday conversations.

But there is one word used on the show and copied by diehard fans that has been deemed “racist”, resulting in the mysterious disappearance of two episodes using the word.

The word used in the episode, as well as another, is “ooga booga” and as a result of the complaints, TV bosses have decided to rework two episodes.

Two interesting articles distinguishing between Jewish (people) and Judaism.

' Back in the day ' - the only allowed to lend money - were the Jews - they were the money lenders.

This has tainted them throughout the ages.

And because they prospered - well - we all know.

Still would like to know why the Brits - were the worst.

You don't think labeling an entire nation the biggest racists known to man isn't just a bit prejudgemental?
You know, kinda like the whole definition of racism?
