So, after I watched this can I claim mental rape? Because I feel very very dirty and horrible inside. It's like simply watching it made me a little bit racist.
the "East Asian people are yellow" thing needs to die. People who have jaundice are the only people who are yellow. Likewise, American Indians are not even sort of red. Sunburned people are sort of red. Not that those things are the most racist parts of the video.
wtf. the black puppets look like they have jaundice and angry at society. If this was shot in Arizona today, Jose would be arrested and sent back to Mexico.
@14 Even if it were true I don't see how having too much time on your hands is a bad thing. I know that I much prefer minimizing things I have to do like work, so I can things I enjoy, like watch funny internet videos.
red yellow black white... after the Mexican puppet popped in on the screen I would have sworn they'd add in "brown" but they didn't... I guess he's color Jose.
BEG, this is a really weird-ass rendition of "Jesus Loves the Little Children." Each segregated racial group sings the chorus with stereotyped voice and musical styles. But before the white children start to sing (to a country/ western rhythm, natch) they play the first few bars of the French national anthem, just to add to the freakiness.
Would it be giving the producers too much credit to suppose that inserting the first few bars of Le Marseillaise before the white children (the lyrics of which translate to "Arise, children of the Fatherland") was intentional? If true, wouldn't this make it even more creepy?
Eh, it's a bad cartoon but I thing everyone is overrating a little bit. I hate bible thumpers as much as the next slogger but they were just trying to be inclusive of all races and when trying to make the race of a puppet easily noticeable you have to resort to some obvious stereotypes.
That was awesome. Almost peed a little I was laughing so hard. Christians are so painfully deluded that even when they try to be inclusive it's horrifying...

Also, I'm shocked that I didn't actually here "Jesus ROVES me". Where was that part?
Also, was grey felt really the best they could find?

Not like I can lipread MUPPETS anyway, for god's sake.
AGH!
Black???

This looks like something out of the 70's so I'm going to be charitable and say... LSD induced. Yep. That's the story.
o.O
yum yum!
