>When it comes to presenting diverse characters in children’s programming, the latest buzz surrounds “Sesame Street,” which for the first time in its 47-year history features a character with autism. But a closer look reveals that children’s animated shows have been leaders in addressing issues related to race, gender and disabilities. The GLAAD Media Awards this year even recognized two animated programs with nominations: Nickelodeon’s “The Loud House” and Cartoon Networks’ “Steven Universe.”
>This season, “The Loud House” is introducing a character with Down syndrome, while Nick’s new series “Pinky Malinky” stars a girl whose African-American mother owns her own business and Caucasian dad is “mister mom.” And Nick Jr.’s “Nella the Princess Knight” stars a bi-racial character.
>At a time when social media triggers nonstop audience responses, Savino says “The Loud House” has received thanks from bi-racial and LGBTQ kids, and parents of autistic kids who relate to the show. “But one gentleman also wrote and said he was not going to let his daughter watch it. It’s his right as a parent to do that. But I felt it was a shame that she wouldn’t be exposed to a show that has a good heart. I’m hoping that she’s sneaking out to watch it!”

This fitting in with the upcoming 30 minute episode: Relative Chaos (Saturday: 5/29) >When Ronnie Anne and Bobby visit their crazy extended family, Bobby fits in great, but Ronnie Anne struggles with the smothering nature of their relatives.
>This season, “The Loud House” is introducing a character with Down syndrome But we already know about Lynn
Parker Stewart
Why are people so mean to Lynn?
Sebastian Jackson
She deserves it.
Jayden Kelly
but why though?
Dylan Long
>Always bullying Lincoln
Cameron Gomez
cuz she a bitch
Adam Smith
Awful Can't we just have a show do it's thing without pushing some agenda?
Ryan Jones
What kid has downs syndrome on tlh
Jason Phillips
But Lincoln deserves it for being such a little self indulgent brat. Besides she is the closet sister to Lincoln.
No more than her other sisters.
Brandon Johnson
Sounds like they are doing their thing but some thirsty journalist wants to make a sale-i mean article
Eli Price
>such a little self indulgent brat. You can be a twat back without leaving bruises. Like every one of the other sisters and parents do because they aren't brain damaged
Ethan Walker
Be honest, You are reading obscure SJW magazines, because you enjoy being triggered by them.
Colton Thomas
No, Lucy is.
Luis Clark
>spics? >in MY cartoons? >so progressive~
Notice I didn't mention the other shit- that's because in real life those other groups like gays and shit are so rare you have to actively seek them out to find them.
Alexander Gomez
It's just a bit of tough love, you wimp.
Ryan Hernandez
It's possible he derives enjoyment from the magazine itself but greater enjoyment from people being triggered by what they write
Aaron Williams
This is why I still come to Sup Forums I get to act like an irrational hatred-fulled triggered faggot arguing for threads on end so that I can be a functional member of society irl
Dylan Bennett
Mom is a cutie.
Ryder Russell
Are you aware of the concepts of village idiot or village drunk? Every village also has a gay and you will encounter them without actively seeking them out, unless you are super ignorant.
Ryan Murphy
I dunno man, I live on the east coast and I can't throw a stick without hitting someone straight from tumblr, unique pronouns and all. Maybe here is just weird here but what's weird to me is how people think homosex and literal downies are rare.
Jose Lee
doesn't make for a likeable character if she's gonna be a turbocunt 24/7
Gavin Cook
I see the "tough" if you mean picking on someone who never fights back. But where's the love?
Adam Reyes
If someone picks on you, then he/she likes you. Do you hate Ronnie Anne too for "bullying" Linc?
She is likable. She is an energetic bundle of joy.
Landon James
So you're saying Lynn is a disgusting incestuous freak?
David Cruz
Yes, I hate both for being a pansy who wastes time fighting an opponent that refuses to fight back. You gonna act like an ass but get nothing back? That's not fun at all. You continue to do so? Yous a bithc
Jaxson Campbell
I'm going to be so glad when that free loading Spic finally goes back. Stinks up our school, picks on Lincoln (his fucking sister forces him to date her just to make her deadbeat bf happy), and is just a hideous asshole in general. #makeamericagreatagain
Xavier Jones
>deadbeat guy works like 50 jobs that white americans could be working instead
Parker Martinez
Even though I'm all for diversity in cartoons I'm starting to feel this way too. Or at least if a cartoon has a gay character in it just don't make it a big fucking deal.
Dylan Hall
>Punky lives on through Savino's works Can one man be this based? youtu.be/uQyr7nDLS4M
Easton Flores
But they don't because they're too busy freeloading off of mommy and daddy while complaining about minorities on the internet
Anthony Turner
Oh that's bullshit and you know it, Flip. He's gets fired from every single one just to collect unemployment, and then has the gall to cry about ICE finally kicking down his dung covered door. It amazes me, he's just such a goddamn parasite who gives nothing back to society. Almost as loathsome as his sister and Lori, which is probably why they put up with each other.
Anthony Butler
Shit, you got me.
Joseph Gonzalez
why down syndrome? The illness can be detected and aborted it's becoming a are condition outside of prolife freaks.
Cameron Turner
And you fleece people out of money and gleefully watch people go bankrupt. You're in no place to judge, Flip.
Liam Scott
>Brownie hates Mexicans I'm okay with this headcanon.
Jeremiah Brown
Her head is unusually large plus she has retard strength so it fits.
Cameron Sanchez
Based Brownie. Flip got so upset it was almost anothah Shoah.
Luis Sullivan
>ywn have a household full of interest-varied kids who have eachother's backs even though they're kinda jerks >best you could get is a bunch of little shits that move out at 18 on the nose
Hunter Sanchez
Why is there so much fan art of Luna becoming a drug addict and failing in her music career. Seems like it outshines the scenario of her becoming a success. Not that it definitely isn't a possibility though.
I like to think she would make it as a musician. She certainly has the charisma for it. Although drugs do away with that pretty quickly and go hand and hand with the music industry.
Jaxson Garcia
*achoo* "what's wrong with you?" "is this cause I poisoned your womb?" Lmaooooooo
Grayson Powell
can anyone answer where these fags who keep complaining about "necroing" come from? Sup Forums isn't fucking neogaf.
Colton Campbell
Wait, so is this going to be an episode without any of the Louds?
Joshua Mitchell
Unironically Leni.
Ryan Robinson
only pure white aryan master race allowed
Jayden Gray
To normalize it
Charles Lewis
Would be cool to have an episode centered on the parents wanting to have a vacation or just a night out to themselves to go to a fancy restaurant only to discover they never wanted to be away from the kids by the end of the episode
Luis Cook
As long as it isn't another clyde episode, I don't mind
Jose Stewart
No, in fact there's not really anything to be "triggered" about from this. I just like reading up on Loud House news, any other time I probably wouldn't acknowledge it.
It always strikes me as odd when a show where there is a retarded joke character does an episode about Down Syndrome.
So it's OK to laugh at someone who's clearly mentally deficient for no clear reason, but it's not OK to laugh at someone who's mentally deficient due to having too many chromosomes? How does that make sense?
Logan Wood
Wasn't this supposed to be a conservative show
Carter Cox
Aw man, the mentally disabled make me uncomfortable. Good on Loud House though, really paving the way.
You're like, 15 years late on the slang, loudhouse artist.
Levi Thomas
...
Jace Thomas
>dies at age 27
Lincoln Young
Whoops, out of order. This then
Camden Adams
So they are only making this special episode so they can market over diversity. Thats fucked up.
Caleb Lopez
We live in interesting times, user. VERY interesting times.
Jack Green
Ronnie made waffles for Lincoln, there's the love
Lynn stole his sandwich
Lynn a fucking cunt.
Jace Taylor
We already knew this.
Who has that comic of her laying into Linc for breaking that perfume bottle or whatever?
Matthew Ortiz
how to spot the faggots that don't watch the cartoon.
Leo Davis
Well it's not like the can have Lincoln say >Time to wreck some fucking faggots on LAN
Carson Jackson
What is it with all cartoons lately competing to shit the most on white families? Is it that horrible that a cartoon might actually show a real American family in a normal neighborhood blacks, illegals or sodomites?
Matthew Bailey
She's an annoying cunt
Benjamin Cox
You clearly don't have any siblings
Juan Morales
>complains that cartoons no longer show white families >in a loud house thread
Ian Ross
I don't think so. In the first place they've been building up on using Ronnie Anne and Bobby more, and these are the type of people who actively seek out diversity rather than have it "forced" onto them.
Nolan Scott
will they get a down sndrome actor for him?
Ayden Collins
>African-American mother owns her own business and Caucasian dad is “mister mom.” There's goes every and any attempt at realism.
Ryder Scott
This. Plus, Sup Forums is pretty much the only place where you can say anything even slightly negative about "Diversity" or "Representation." Everywhere else, in and out of the web, it's asking to be called a Nazi and get punched.
Adam Price
>"The Loud House" which will introduce a character with Down syndrome
I'm not ready for the porn of this.
Alexander Gray
There are tiers of disprivilege. For example, blacks and muslims are more disprivileged than latinos, so the former two's interests are always above the latter, who get promoted to white anytime they fall out of line and do something bad to blacks or muslims, like in the Zimmerman case.
Jaxson Mitchell
It's not like Sup Forums's tastes in porn aren't autistic already.
Henry Miller
No chance.
They'll feel really good about including a character with down syndrome, but actually having to deal with one? They can't be bothered.
Joshua Russell
With a white lighter in her pocket
Mason Diaz
They don't heil Hitler 1488 times per day and Holocaust RA, Clyde, and Clyde's dads, so apparently they don't count for Sup Forums.
Connor Long
FUCKING
DROPPED
Carson Brown
It's actually standard to use Down Syndrome actors for portraying down syndrome, precisely because DS activism groups complain when they don't.
Christopher Kelly
Pinky malinky. *check* No, thats not something to proud of for having diversity. I refuse to acknowledge a show starring a hotdog!!
Lincoln Brown
>some tard strapped into a wheel chair is going to scream his lines into the microphone
