  • Yep, I’m a parent and a fan. That’s how I know it doesn’t fit the bill for conservatives.

    The show includes episodes that touch on mindfulness, emotions, and inclusivity. While not overtly political, its emphasis on emotional intelligence and gentle parenting has been called out as part of a broader shift away from “traditional” discipline and family values being pushed by ‘liberal media.’ Bandit, the father, is an active caregiver, while Chilli, the mother, works outside the home. The show portrays Bandit and Chilli as highly engaged, emotionally available parents who embrace play-based parenting. Or as conservatives call it, ‘soft parenting.’ They also occasionally include diverse characters and family structures, which has already sparked backlash from conservative groups who oppose media normalizing non-traditional families.


  • How? Feels pretty Babylon Bee level to me. They are literally getting rid of the dept of education so that part is just real, and Bluey is way too ‘woke’ for conservatives to ever get anywhere near it. Also ‘giant iPad’ is just silly.

    Now if it said “Department of Education Replaced with PragerU Kids” That would be much better satire.

    But whatever, if the consensus is that I’m wrong then I guess I’m wrong, but to me this just feels like really low effort content for the lowest common denominator. Which I guess we need since 22% of the country are brainwashed morons and 30% can’t be bothered to vote.
