I could not believe - COULD NOT BELIEVE - that Rick and Morty actually touched on the Israel situation in last week's episode.
It passed in the blink of an eye. But it encapsulated so much of how voices in the media are terrified of speaking out about the situation in the middle east.
(Warning - gory cartoon robot-crocodile death in the clip below.)
Sure, this is a show that airs at 11:30 at night on Sunday on Cartoon Network - not a powerhouse of political reporting. But the fact that the character could even harbor doubts about the sanctity of Israel, and that the creators had the courage to make a joke about it...
I had to rewind the clip to make sure it had really happened.
That's a good find Winston!
To me it seemed like they were conditioning people to have a mental block against questioning it. Rick is quick to say he is not 'racist' and that he was drunk when he said that. You need to see the next episode too it has a lot of symbolism!
Yes @realconspiracies, I did see what you posted, it was after I saw this one...definitely throws a different perspective on things! I hope @WinstonAlden can pop by your page to check that blog out!
