Where's the outrage? Where's Meathead now to speak out against this astrocity?
Love Archie Bunker but can't believe it hasn't been cancelled by the woke mob

OT: outraged at latest woke outrage.
ALso OT: outraged when there's no woke outrage.

I appreciate ME TV not getting involved one way or the other. Just show the shows the way they aired back in the day and let it be.

I'm a little surprised that MeTV hasn't gotten some blowback considering how sensitive some can be nowadays. I was watching Beverly Hillbillies the other night and Jed made the comment that everybody knows the best thing to do when your woman misbehaves is to put her across your knee and give her a good walloping. 
If that was done today there would be folks blowing a gasket

I've been slowly making my way through the first season on freevee. Carroll O'Connor got some amazing lines and has been able to get brilliant jabs in on each of his costars, but Archie's ignorance and bigotry has not been celebrated. His being the antithesis of a role model shines brightly in the episodes I've watched, and would shine just as bright a spotlight on those "offended" by the show.

52 years later and Archie Bunker was right.

We learn the reason in the last scene. He's talking with Rob & Laurie and says, "I guess the reason women never stay with me is because... I hit them." He kind of smiles, as if he's talking about having a bad case of dandruff. "Yes, I just can't help myself. I like to hit women."
You would expect Rob and definitely Laurie to be horrified, but they just keep listening attentively.
I can't believe they got away with this even in 1964

In the last 50 years we've seen the world as run by progressive PhDs like Meathead
As a French philosopher said about the young revolutionaries of 1968 Paris, "They know everything, but they don't know anything else."

they got gilligans island removed from TV because no blacks on the cast, and they made fun of the natives which was racist.
im sure archie will be next, but wanna bet they dont call out the real racist that was george on moovin on up?
i think they escape the woke radar as they are on small networks that are not being watched by the woke mobs
