Cartoons are not allowed to have muscled protagonists with big guns anymore

>Cartoons are not allowed to have muscled protagonists with big guns anymore.

Why?

What about Punished Jack?

Because that horse looks really gay.

Still manlier than that girl show

Which one? Rainbow Brite?

>>Cartoons are not allowed to have muscled protagonists with big guns anymore.
Aren't they?

This. Testosterone and "masculinity" is toxic and dangerous. Men are the ones that created this world, they are the ones to blame for all the violence and the atmosphere of anger you find out there.

Because its not what sells/pulls in viewers. Why spend thousands/millions of dollars on a show that might well be good but only pulls in half a million views, when you can instead churn out a dozen other shows at a part of the cost each that reliably pull in over a million views?

Thats why so many shows are running the 11 minute format. Thats why we rarely see shows with a season spanning plot. Thats why we don't see something that could potentially alienate a portion of viewers. Simple greed.

Epic bait Sup Forumsrother

Action cartoons are banned.

Because our new weapons are our tears, Op.

Remember the future from Demolition Man? We're heading into that. For we are all very genteel and civilized in the current year. We must normalize correct moral behavior at all times in fiction and fantasy. No more naughty thoughts.

Oh for fucks sake, I'm so glad I never watched that show.

It's not bait. Men are like that BECAUSE they are born to be hunters, their hormones make them violent, but thing is, we are no longer in a hunter gatherer society. Men have to change.

>hormones make us Violent
By that logic Women are Rage Filled Killing Machines because of their Periods

what is this?

Those are nowhere nearly as bad as the crimes human males have done. How many rapists are men? There's your answer.

Because no one wants or likes over muscular, steroid-using, jocks. The future belongs to the intelligent, not the strong. Deal with it.

>People forget that Steven is going to grow up into a big strong man

Did you ever watch bravestar.

THEY ALL LOOKED GAY. It was the 80s.

...

because they don't sell anymore, which itself is because the 90s burned everyone out on that shit with both XTREEM cartoons and saturating the goddamned market

But hey, maybe it'll all come back before America wipes out human civilization and you can pretend everything's finally right with the world as you starve on a belly full of dust.

Wouldn't the numbers be disproportionate because men tend not to report being raped alongside the "Women can't rape men" mentality?

The general rule is that guns cannot be aimed directly at the 'viewer', as in the gun can't be perceived as aiming at anyone watching. That's why you'll never see someone in a modern children's cartoon have any kind of gun aimed at them from a POV angle.

Boy, if I ever had sons, I'm moving to Siberia to raise them as the toughest nail-chewing sons of bitches to ever grace this earth. Conan would look at them and weep for he will never be as manly as they will.

Then I will unleash them unto the unsuspecting world, filled with losers, faggots and betas, and laugh while they manage to seduce every woman in the world by flexing really hard before fucking them in front of their boyfriends/husbands/lesbians. And these cucks will cry, they will weep, and they will raise the resulting cuckold children because they have no spines and never will.

And the meek will die out and a new, manly generation will inverit the earth.

Faggot.

You're doing God's work user

I fucking lose my shit every time to the intro of Bravestar when he and the horse wink at each other. It's like a fucking parody.

I think the reason we don't see muscled protagonists with big guns anymore is because of the counter culture people from the early 2000's who now work in the industry, because muscled protagonists with big guns were the majority in the 80's-90's. So maybe as a result we'll start seeing muscled protagonists with big guns in the future as another counter culture. Maybe thick outlines too.

because young boys might get the problematic notion that masculinity is something to look emulate, instead of being a "sensitive" and "emotional" man "in touch" with your "feelings"

Oh come on, user. Men are more sex driven than women, it just happens to be in their nature to be more rapey.

Two "manly" men are no match for a whole nation. I bet they would end up getting gun down by some other male.

>because they don't sell anymore, which itself is because the 90s burned everyone out on that shit with both XTREEM cartoons and saturating the goddamned market
This. I think the fags who bitch about "WHERE THE BEEF???' in comics and cartoons nowadays are simply too young to remember when you couldn't turn on a TV, see a movie or open a magazine without tripping over some hyper-macho try-hard bullshit. I remember when Joe the fucking Camel was still everywhere for God's sake. Society got sick of that shit eventually, and now we're seeing the blowback from internet weirdos. It's like when 80sfags would get into their nostalgia circle-jerks on the early 00s' Internet, and ask themselves "WHY DOESN'T AMERICA WANT TO SEE ROCK STARS WITH THEIR DICKS OUTLINED IN HOT PINK SPANDEX ANYMORE?"

Shut up, Grandpa.

>>Cartoons are not allowed to have muscled protagonists with big guns anymore.

??????????????????????????????????

The Jewish Illuminati Lizardman Alliance is infecting us goyim with soft protagonists instead of steel-chiseled, muscular ubermen, in a form of brainwashing.

Forgot muh pic. I could see this shit was transparently trying to be "cool" as a kid too, but it just got really gay. Like, remember how all action figures had every single muscle on the male body lovingly sculpted in? That just led to shit like Batman and Robin's anatomically correct suits, because it sells toys, right? Kids love male nipples, right? And it wound up backfiring so badly that as the 90s closed, we all agreed that musclebound shit was for homos, but kinky leather fetishwear was still new and socially acceptable...

>not allowed

>he actually believes this

there is a definite agenda here though.

Its true that it was killed in part by oversaturation and self parody, but there also started the PC SJW far left trend, that says masculinity is toxic, and actively tries to push narratives that portray masculine men as the villain. (especially if they are white) while promoting weak effeminate men.

it's also a product of shifting culture, in regards to everyday life.

back in the 80's, you could still work at a factory or some sort of industrial/manufacturing job and that was considered a masculine job.

Nowadays, that is sparse and whats left are shit like office jobs and other jobs that dont really breed a masculine culture.

the center of technology and industry has shifted from Detroit and the rust belt, to California and Silicone Valley, where it's all numales and tech geeks.

or something like that, anyway.

>Women are Rage Filled Killing Machines

Yes, they are.

And now it's you cocksuckers turn with this limp twisted bullshit. It's a cycle, and it'll swing back around eventually and then you'll be crying that everybody likes things too violent and insensitive and miss your tear strewn feels filled media. And Ill be old and gray laughing my ass off at your pearl clutching ass. Mark it on your calendar with your rainbow stickers. It all goes back and forth.

To be fair, he doesn't use a gun.

god i wanna chop his head off and eat his brain while fucking his corpse godajıHDUGEFWQJ

Something something ableism something something heteronormative something something [feminist shit] blah blah blah

>Strength is now considered gay
>Being a limp little quirky shy guy is considered attractive to females

What the fuck happened to Western civilization

Got defeated in WW2.

Wait are we Japan now? Holy shit

By what guns? Guns are outlawed. No beta male would ever touch a gun, let alone own one.

>he and the horse wink at each other. It's like a fucking parody.

What? Bravestarr and Thirty-Thirty were only sharing a Bro-Moment.

"We can take these assholes!"
"Damn tootin' we can!"

>Guns are outlawed.

Too far, user.

Honestly, I don't know why you fucks are so bothered by it. You losers wouldn't be on a fucking Fapanese porn board if you were so ripped and manly already, but let's give you the benefit of the doubt.

If you're an "alpha", than by your own beliefs these added betas in the dating pool are as nothing next to your ox-like musk, so you can just facepalm them aside as you collect bitches and go about your merry way.

If you're NOT an "alpha", than all this means is you have a better chance of getting lucky, and you go about your merry way.

But this is Sup Forums, so rather than take the risk of rejection, you'll just come here and shitpost about gay equine cartoons.

...

Assuming you're a straight male with straight male friends, start winking at them.

You'll very quickly have no straight male friends.

...

t. woman

I'm honestly surprised you leapt to "woman" before "beta libcuck". Sorry this board isn't your safespace, Sup Forums.

You're not exactly proving me wrong, Susan.

One day, the cartoons about manly mans shooting and punching likeable villains in the name of Justice, Freedom and the american way will return.

And then we will bath ouselves in mountais of dinosaurs with machine guns toys

80s were objectively the best decade for cartoons, this is a fact.

Coulda been a G1 villain.

And you still haven't made an argument.

My argument is that you, a woman, shouldn't try to talk about relationships between men.

You seem triggered, and missed the fact the post you're replying to has no actual political agenda, and instead just attributes the lack of notably masculine characters to oversaturation in previous decades.

Remember, not everything is about politics, or liberals coming to impose cultural marxism.

You are deluded enough to believe you, a poster on an imageboard about comic books and cartoons, will be not only able to reproduce at all, but will also convince the mother of your children to move to Siberia, and that you, a more than likely obese man whose hobbies include watching cartoons for children and reading comic books, will your two sons into muscledbound pussy hounds, who will cuck entire nations, and no one will shoot them in the fucking head.

In what planet do you live in? Because it's certainly not planet Earth.

Now that we have a super-lesbian show I want an outrageously gay show, like Hard Gay Super Manly shit. That "Two Wrestlers Fall In Gay Love and Have A Kawaii Feminine Son" would work but I'd also like to see something that takes Conan masculine power in the same way that SU took Sailor Moon feminine power. Just a bunch of shirtless super warriors training a princess to fight the unknowable unnameable heathen gods from before time. Instead of all of them being rocks they can just be weapons.

I'm not the original poster, and funnily enough, I'm a dude. A gay dude. Only time a guy's ever winked at me it was a joke where he acted really gay. I would say that also happens when guys hit on you, but I'm a loser on Sup Forums, even bugchasers find me disgusting.

I wouldn't mind two big buff manly men adopting a feminine but straight son.

>I'd also like to see something that takes Conan masculine power in the same way that SU took Sailor Moon feminine power.

Fund this shit!
FUND IT!

Fuck yes, m'man.

DEEEEEEEEEECOMPOOOOOOOOOOOOSE!

Well ... Slugterra exists.

...

I just want more half-naked muscular men in my life.

Is that so wrong?

Ya like jazz and forcing a dead meme in every single thread you spot?

I'm going to miss condiments.

You make an interesting point. The absence of blue collar jobs is definitely affecting cultural values and changing masculinity. If you ever wondered what kind of masculinity socially inept losers would produce, well, Silicon Valley is full of programmers in top positions. Which has produced, for lack of a less retarded term, Nu Males. But they're not all like that. There's still what can be considered a toxic bro culture, in fact if you look underneath all the progressive overtures you'll notice the majority of Silicon Valley is true to their male nature. It's an interesting social phenomenon, of which any discussion would be wasted on this trash board

The problem with that is the strong will beat you up and take your future.

that's only so the show can have a recurring cast of antagonists.

>lesbians and homo kiss in toddler shows : OMG it's currentyear go back to pol
>fit independent character with a gun : waha it's so gay fuck off with that archaic shit.
yeah, neo/co/mblr gonna neo/co/mblr I guess.

>Then I will unleash them unto the unsuspecting world, filled with losers, faggots and betas, and laugh while they manage to seduce every woman in the world by flexing really hard before fucking them in front of their boyfriends/husbands/lesbians.
Traps are a million times more attractive than masculine guys though, why would anyone want to fuck some hairless gorilla? Muscles are only attractive when they're on other girls

>fit independent character with a gun : waha it's so gay fuck off with that archaic shit.
>yeah, neo/co/mblr gonna neo/co/mblr I guess.
People are hyped for Samurai Jack though

asians men are considered honorary trans

True.
But at least cartoons are allowed to mention words like death and kill, and actually feature actual guns.
Adventure Time is much darker than most of the shit from that era.

Plus what that other guy said about testosterone burn-out.

>Adventure Time is much darker than most of the shit from that era.
my fucking side.

>Now that we have a super-lesbian show
??

Massive bulging muscles haven't been part of the 'cool' action hero since The Matrix.

It has nothing to do with the demonization of masculinity.

>Just finished a mini series in which we witness a virus that killed 60% of the human population, and 99.9% of the medical staff.

>we also see someone eaten alive by rats and subsequently a mutant.
>albeit done in humorous fashion.

I'm guessing you aren't actually old enough to have ever sat through any old cartoons like He-Man or Thunder Cats.

They're bad. They're really really bad. And having protagonists with big biceps doesn't make then dark. They're actually far more sterile and conservative with their themes and visuals than cartoons are today, because soccer moms had even more power then and having actual peril or any kind of dark themes got you kicked off air.

>I'm guessing
yeah, bring it to lalaland, where you are always right because nobody is real

>Adventure Time got around the censors prohibition of the word "murder" by changing it to "murderlurder".

Are you alright, user? You seem perturbed.

I can only make the assumption you don't know what you're talking about, because your opinion doesn't line up with the reality of these older shows you uphold as examples of quality.

Anyone who actually lived through the era of dumb toyetic crap cartoons knows it was terrible. No, old TMNT not good, nor is Thunder Cats, or He-Man, or everything else in that vein.

>Remember the future from Demolition Man? We're heading into that
I think about this often, i'm glad trump was elected since most preachers of the attitude took a 180° degree denial on their bs.

Daily reminder that if this were to get a Thundercats-esque remake, there would be insane amounts of porn of this guy.

Not as long as you admit that shit's gay.

don't feel bad, i thought it was funny.

>If you ever wondered what kind of masculinity socially inept losers would produce, well, Silicon Valley is full of programmers in top positions
Or you could just look around this trash board, HEYOOO

>No more naughty thoughts.

Sexual and 'controversial' themes are more prevalent in cartoons than ever, though.

If you were as blatant about it as people are now in the 80's and early 90's, you'd never work in the industry again, and your show would never make it past censors.

You're living in backwards land.

Literally one cartoon out of the many that are airing.

>back in the 80's, you could still work at a factory or some sort of industrial/manufacturing job and that was considered a masculine job.

This isn't some big conspiracy. There are just way less of those jobs, and they're associated with uncertainty and poor pay now due to automation.

>Instead of all of them being rocks they can just be weapons

YES
and they can combine/fuse to form new weapons for the princess to use.

Machine un and grenade become...grenade luncher!

Someone needs to edit this.

The edit exists, but without user.

He really does. I swear cartoons from the 1980s were the playground of homoerotic furfag artists.
