Here’s a blog entry at a “progressive” web site, pondering how Disney may be “prejudiced” because of the stereotypical casting in Cars. It’s certainly valid to criticize the film for that. It’s one of my major gripes with it. Finding malapropisms such as “prodigious” make me wonder just what sort of education is happening at “Progressive U”, but this is just a howler:
Another thing I noticed is the mayor of the town on route 66 has an old timer black voice. Which that in turn makes it seem like the black man is suppressing the town full of “white voiced” cars.
I also noticed that the classic car in that town had a black voice to it too. That is kind of telling me that the old time Cadillac is just for black people.
Who’s going to break it to “redneck_hunter2022” that the mayor has blue eyes and that the old Cadillac was a Mercury, and is also white? Perish the thought that the blogger might oh, I don’t know, read the credits.
This is funny on many levels, my favorite being the “prejudice” on the part of the blogger who heard those voices and assumed “black”. Really? Blacks have different voices? That bias speaks volumes.
They may not be teaching English at “Progressive U”, but at least they aren’t teaching critical thinking.
Progressive education. Well, it’s certainly an oxymoron when you use both words.
