I think left is Bryke (Bryan Konietzko and Michael DeMartino), the creators of Avatar the Last Airbender.

Right is probably that foot guy. Dan Schneider. I don’t know if he’s a pedo or not, but he’s certainly a bit creepy.

But Avatar doesn’t have a lot of blood or any sexual themes. While Schneider’s shows had really weird scenes putting children in sexually suggestive situations. I also don’t know anything about the creators of Avatar becoming bodyguards

Not convicted of anything, if you watch that show on Nickelodeon pedophiles then he comes out as a really good guy (to the kids, he sucks to the adults). He was the only one who offered to help Drake after he was raped and he didn’t push anything

But his shows were sexually suggestive and involved kids so it can’t be him

It’s almost as though people obsessed with children are more likely to commit crimes involving children. We see it with the Right all the time.

What does that make Mr. Rogers

He was too busy being good to everyone around him to have time for anything else.

I wrote in another comment, but if you examine his life, he was NOT a conformist. My favorite thing about his unconventional style was that he knew he needed a radical music program but had enough humility to know he needed someone else to direct it (he was a very talented musician). So he found the local and famous jazz club pianist and directed him to play whatever sort of music he desired. Johnny Costa, one of my personal icons, was very confused at first because he thought his music would be far too advanced or technical for a children’s show. And if you watch the show, you will notice that he plays every single song in a unique way, every single time. Can you imagine that? Playing the same music for 30 years and almost never playing the same thing. He was an absolute master of not hitting the note that your brain expected him to play, yet still playing enough to resolve and release the tension of the melody. It really is beautiful music.

Whoa, tangent. But seriously, MR was a rebel and the highest calibre of person that Pittsburgh has to offer.

If it ever came out that Mr. Rogers was a Saville, I think the internet would collapse. For sure there would be millions defending him proof or no

Only thing I don’t like about it is the visual representation of the villain as a cleancut man with glasses and the good guy as a short haired chubby dude.

You know what a pedophile looks like? Literally anybody.

In a comic where there is one panel dedicated to the depiction of a nonce, who I agree could look like literally anybody, how would you have preferred the artist represent every type of person? Some sort of shifting miasma? A vague cloud? One of those stroke pictures where nothing is quite what it looks like? Michael Jackson’s Black or White video?

Stick people. And use exactly the same image for both.

I think there is a specific stereotype of creepy men with swept hair who wear glasses. Fun fact, Visual Acuity does not correlate with sex crimes. Clark Kent has never had allegations against him.

Rick and Morty was pretty loose with the adult themes. Justin roiland was a piece of pedo shit.

By the by, don’t get too comfortable about robot chicken either.

pieces of shit cover their tracks with charities too.

And a plethora of NDAs to hide a lot of shit going on.

I wouldn’t start false attributing violence in cartoons as the take away landmark here on ethics. Lots of pedos and creepos in the industry on all themes. They slip in there on merit that is only checked based on their standing in the field. Not how damp their casting couch is.

I’m going to go ahead and say Rick and Morty isn’t a “children’s show” though.
