    I used to think this way, but then I found out that Disney is actively censoring media that they’ve bought the rights to, so now my argument is that you should pirate stuff to keep the original art available

        Macross 7 by Disney directly, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and The Simpsons by various other rights holders

          Also add Community to that list. Can’t watch the DnD episode on Netflix anymore because there’s a gag about Chang’s unfortunate dark elf cosplay looking like black face.

            It’s okay, black face will be acceptable soon in the US under the current admin.

              Sad but true. At least it’s gonna be funny watching the same companies that went overboard and removed the harmless instances just to virtue signal do a complete 180 and allow genuinely hateful content on their platforms.
