    Okay, long story short: I know how hard-left this sub is, and I'm pretty much to the left myself. I can't stand crooked law enforcement. I fiercely support Black Lives, and I think we need reform badly. But I happen to enjoy some movies/shows/games that have police characters. And I'm getting beyond fed up with seeing a certain movie (Zootopia) that impacted me so much get attacked from the left in this manner. Basically, I don't agree with how some in the hard left keep holding it up as "cop propaganda" or "fascist", which it isn't, and people accusing it of "getting racial allegories wrong" when in reality, the movie is an allegory for prejudice as a whole. Like, I don't find crap like this funny. I find it infuriating. Because it's not true. https://i.redd.it/0qy9v4on7gs31.jpg Some hard leftists accuse the film of missing the mark because the "predators" evolved from eating prey mammals to eating fish and bugs. That's not meant to symbolize anything in real life, it's just something that happened with those animals in a kids' movie. It doesn't clash with the movie's messaging at all. It's not "police apologism" because the police department is depicted as inept in many ways, and the story contains a moral against unfair profiling. Now for some reason, the "NP" link option isn't working, but I discussed this before in BreadTube and Complete Anarchy. I'm asking you how you feel about this because I once encountered a thread in this sub mocking Judy Hopps, doing the whole "ACAB" thing, and I was legit upset by it. If you think I'm some kind of idiot, weirdo or loser for getting so emotional about a movie aimed at kids that's part of a big corporation, that's your right. But people have been sharing "Judy's a pig, smash the state" memes in the Zootopia sub. And as someone who can't watch certain scenes in the movie without crying my eyes out, they really bothered me and I didn't think they were fair at all.

    Beastars is Zootopia if it didn't self-censor itself out of cowardice and is all the better for it. We need more manga written by giant chickens.

      Nu Pogodi is Beastars if the wolf was some random lumpen and the rabbit was a twink.

          Hmmm, I don't remember him having any truly problematic messages regarding nationalism. He obviously always has the baddest and strongest dudes ever always be Japanese, but America is really the only nation he drags through the mud. I don't recall him insinuating that any nation or ethnicity is inferior really.

          Now his thoughts on sexuality however are truly bizarre and maybe even deranged

    The sequel comics redeem it. Honestly it is kinda amazing and if you have any love for zootopia you owe it to yourself to read it.

    Spoilers but she gets pregnant with a fox baby but it has significant developmental issues so she has an abortion. They divorce over this. The She becomes a liberal politican to uphold women's rights with her new wife. Her ex husband, the fox, shoots her as her motorcade is passing by a book repository and she dies.
