Scooby Doo and political correctness...

My son is sick and I am sitting here watching Scooby Doo with him and it just struck me how racist this show is!

Just look at all the stereotypes these RACISTS perpetuated!

Fred: An educated, gay white man who is a natural leader! *thanks to JediMaster for pointing out that Fred is gay*

Velma: A very intelligent white woman who solves mysteries and is basically a lesbian, as she is slightly overweight and not very attractive. Smart women cannot be attractive... didn't you know?

Daphne: A stereotypical model type. No brains, always in peril. If a girl is attractive, she can't have brains, right?

Shaggy: Stereotypical weed smoker!

Scooby Doo: Shaggy's dog... obviously a reference to marijuana.

...

Damn! Its true! of course, it could be argued that Fred is a GAY white man, since he wears rather effeminate clothing, and shows no interest in Daphne whatsoever. If this is the case, then the entire group is made up of minorities (A gay, a straight woman, a lesbian, a drug addict, and a talking dog)

They were obviously Communists,
robbing the good capitalist children
of the products of their consumerist utopia

And you tell lies. Clearly, none of that was ever said on an episode of Skewby Dew.

Didn't Scooby have a sister or cousin whol looked exactly like him but she was called Scooby Dee? She looked like Scooby Doo in drag. Or maybe I dreamt it...

I doubt that Fred is gay. No self-respecting gay man would wear the same outfit in public more than once, never mind for twenty-odd fucking years!

Good point, but you have to realise that Fred was in the closet, and operating on little to no income. Besides, no straight man would ever wear a neckerchief!

Y'know, I think Scooby Dum was mocking all the poor mentally challenged folks out there! He's clearly a stereotype for retarded people! Man, how did Hanna Barbara get away with this for so many years?

I tend to think Velma is your classic penis envious, closet sadomasochist, fag-hag to Fred and crew.
She secretly craves a hard cock, but instead settles for Shaggy's 3 minute ab workout on her jungle muff while Fred and Daphne are in the front seat driving the "Mystery" Machine.
