Isn't former Slave owner George Washington on some American coins? Possibly a lot more than just own them.

Matthew Corbett constantly fisting them all
Andy Pandy was a bit of a rascal too. All of them in one basket every night, including the unfortunately named Loobey Loo. I mean, WTF?
And Mr. Spoon was a dirty old shit too!
Always going up to Button Moon to spy on a dog taking a bubble bath (hell of a powerful telescope it must have been as well to be fair!). Pervy bastard

I've missed this one.......who's offended by her now ? The Royal Mint who refused a commemorative coin because Noddy and Big Ears had a sexless relationship amongst her other failings are racist for a golliwog story and misogynist characters in her books. She died over 50yrs ago right or wrong it was different then. Shall we destroy all of our history because it might offend. Reminds me of when n*gger the dog belonging to Guy Gibson became digger at the hands of Stephen fucking Fry , talk about re writing history to placate the liberal left loon's.

It's still in the original film which amazes me every time I watch, it's a great film.

Apparently in the revision of "The Faraway Tree", Fanny and Dick became Franny and Rick …. for obvious reasons.

Was very disappointed to find Master Bates was an urban legend and was never on Pugwash.
Anyway, as stated on another post, as a Rainbow fan I’m going to whip out me Twanger and give it a good plucking.

Blyton was called out in 1966 for The Little Black Doll in which the doll gets caught in a rainstorm and its face transforms to white at which point it becomes its owner's most popular toy after previously having an "ugly face" This stuff was being called out 50 years ago, it's a fallacy to suggest Blyton was never challenged on this at the time. Which is a fair point, however the general attitude at the time was completely different to what it is now, the world has become a much smaller place since then and, quite rightly, attitudes have changed dramatically for the better. I read pretty much all of the Secret Seven and the Famous Five books as a kid* brilliant books wot improved my English no end.
*My parents couldn't be arsed dealing with my younger sister's tantrums when they tried to get her to go to bed earlier than me cos she was 5 years younger so I read, a lot! If anything's scarred me chances are it ain't EB's books I adored reading the 'Famous Five' books when I was little and had all of them - they were plain maroon-coloured hardbacks. About 6 or 7 years ago I saw a new reprinted set of 10 'Famous Five' books but with original text & illustrations offered for sale and couldn't resist buying them. It was so enjoyable & great fun reading them again. Lashings of ginger beer!

It's a real pity we can't go back in time and judge the MORONS of todays society by the standards of the past.
My God when they have a music festival the place looks like a waste tip after and they can't even be arsed to take their tents home.
Generation MORON is what I call them
