I met a trans lesbian socialist who does a lot of pro-Palestine organizing recently.

She also really likes Rick and Morty.

Legitimately, the only reason Rick and Morty is "bad" is because it's so good that a lot of people got into it to an embarrassing degree.

If it were a show with no baggage attached, nobody here would have a problem with it

Yeah, the show itself doesn't really have egregiously bad politics. It's not South Park.

Yeah, I guess so. Animation is hard.

Idk everything after season 2 for me has been very hit or miss leaning heavily into the miss. I still think the shows ok though
