Were cartoonists in the eighties/ nineties fighting communism?
I was recently told that I shouldn't be on this site because I don't cover anime of any kind (more on that later). Too shut this crybaby pussy up, and to spread a theory that I have had for... 3 years now. See, the way I figure it, the eighties and early nineties had some... interesting cartoons on the tele. One of my old faves was the Adventures of Sonic The Hedgehog, or the Sonic SatAM to the elite. If you have seen it, just scroll down until I break the page, if not, here is the basic premise. Evil Dr. Robotnik took over the world of Mobius, which is inhabited by humanoid animals based off of woodland critters. Since Robotnik is corrupting the planet with his evil machines. He took most of the population and turned them into robots using his kickass Roboticizer machine. Well, the critters that fight him are a band of scruffy freedom fighters led by a super fast hedgehog named Sonic. To get Sonic and freinds, the good Dr. uses his patented dumbashell goons called SWATbots. And then the fun begins.

I first thought of the communism thing when I watched the show a few weeks ago. I felt nostalgic and it was just a twenty minute download so what the hell, right? I noticed that:
- Sonic is blue, the color of America, whereas Robotnik is red, the color of communist Russia
- Robotnik is a big dumb lameass whose evil world domination plots fail all the time thanks to the good BLUE guys.
- Robotnik's SWATbots and robotic Mobians are all alike, mindless, subservient, and bowing to Robotnik completly, much like Communist USSR.
- Americans/ Mobians, are individualistic and couargeous, whereas the Russians/Robots are dumb as shit, conformists, and cowardly.
- Robotnik wishes all people to be the same and serve him. Mobians want to remain free.
- Robotnik destroys all that is good and healthy, whereas Mobians are good for all.

Oh man! I can't believe how much I rule. Do myself and yourself a favor and tell all about what those cartoons were really about.
