Huh? What? This isn't what a Canadian 90s kid would call it.Transformers: Beast Wars
Yeah, I remember when this show materialized in the US over on Cartoon Network, and while it's not exactly Clayfighter 63 & 1/3rd duology levels of racist, it's still not good.Chop Socky Chooks is a cartoon I couldn’t help but say “Is… this as racist as I think it is?” every single time I saw a commercial for it
As a person from the US I am not familiar with any of these cartoons but I was thinking the same thing."Chop Socky Chooks" just feels racist to say and read
