It gets worse. There was an episode of a kids show (made by PragerU) that talked about a Cuban character’s grandmother, and in the show they travelled to Cuba and portrayed it as looking like a city from fallout universe, with crime, poverty, broken windows, no stores, starving people, etc. Then they time travelled back to the 1940’s “Before the Communists” and it is portrayed as a sparkling utopia.

They then teach how all the woes of the world are fixed through the market.

The episode was literally called “Trapped in Communist Cuba” lmaooo.

Not all cartoons are nickelodeon or disney. This is prager U’s kids cartoon. There’s a reason it is like this, it’s because isn’t a kid’s cartoon with pro-capitalist propaganda, it’s pro-capitalist propaganda pretending to be a children’s cartoon.

The thing I find most interesting about the “Tuttle Twins” is that while it talks down to its audience, it also uses the exact same arguments that regular prager U has, they don’t simplify their arguments to make them easier for children to understand, because they’re already so simplistic.

My bad, my info was faulty. I remembered hearing about it off hand from a video and swore it was on Nicks. Turtle Twins being made by PragerU makes a lot more sense.

They’re fucked up in different ways, not quite at that level yet. Though considering how unprofitable network tv is becoming, it might not be too far off, a decade maybe?

Looking into this more I can’t find any evidence that this “show” aired on Nick. Seems like the user above is just making shit up.

I bet the producers of this show think Squirrel and Hedgehog brainwashes children.
