I read that article a while ago and then saw that episode of Courage. Yeah, I don't see the pedophile connection, he's a weirdo who enjoys shaving things.

And that Batman part . . . yeah, the Joker is abusive to Harley. That's kind of the point.

Apparently, children's entertainment is more triggering than fucking Daesh.

Good thing our nations white, hipster SJW's are so focused on protecting the man and lady-children.

Do you expect these assertions to make sense?

And SJWs generally don't get the point when something problematic is presented in the media. If the act is being shown at all, it's clearly supporting whatever it is being shown.
 
I'm not proud of this, but I still read Cracked because of the journalistic "it happened to me!" articles that they have. Ever since they came up with the idea it's basically carried them through the past two years, and the "Personal Experiences" are consistently the most popular articles.

However, even though they're written in a "humorous" style, they're not funny. I haven't actually laughed at a Cracked article in like a year. Nowadays the website has a lot more in common with Xojane or Salon than Mad Magazine, which is as sad as it sounds.

And of course the comments are shit, but I'm the kind of person who always reads the comments on YouTube and news websites because I hate myself. (I dunno, they're like the salty, greasy potato chips of reading material. They taste bad and are awful for you, but you still shove the chips into your mouth because it's hard to stop.)
 
I read a recent one about sex trafficking. It was informative but not appropriate for a "humor" site, even if it is Cracked. Hope Seanbaby told them to piss off.

I wish. Seanbaby and most of the old veterans pissed off and ran a long time ago. Meanwhile David Wong went full tumblr and wrote columns on women's rights and fat acceptance/how weight loss is a lie.

edit: To my surprise, he's still making articles. And they're still funny. Weird, I never see them on the front page.

I don't want to spend all day looking fr links but I get highly agitated when they misrepresent a source that contradicts their article. Or how they keep regurgitating a factoid that they debunked themselves years ago.
 
This recent article is about why Splatoon has apparently solved the problems of the third-person shooter genre. Going in, I expected that they would include that you can play as a girl as one of the reasons.
I was right, and it had the number one place.
 
Even if Cracked didn't become SJW-land, it'd still be pretty terrible since the research done for articles half if the time is piss-poor, like the time they claimed that the US-Mexico border fence cut through a college campus, when that was just a rumor.

One other thing that really bugs me is how often they're just completely wrong on important historical figures like Alexander Graham Bell or Thomas Edison. You'd think they were worse than fuck-mothering Edward Teller reading Cracked.

You can play as a female solider in the new COD game. It really isn't that unique anymore.

Yeah its kinda depressing Cracked sucks so much now, I haven't even bothered checking it in years.

EDIT: Does anyone else remember how great MAD magazine was? It was a superior version of Cracked back in the pre-internet days. I loved that shit.

I saw that photo a few weeks ago and it's just depressing. I used to be addicted to that site a few years ago and loved the history and science article's on the site. Sure it was just clickbait but I always thought they were well written and learned a few interesting things from it.
Now it's just a shitty Buzzfeed/ Upworthy clone.
 
Iv'e always been more interested in the "insane foreign movie posters" or "most depressing self help books ever" sort of articles. Seanbaby is hilarious even when talking about shit he found in thrift stores.

Seanbaby is old Cracked definitely. New cracked is "5 Things You Didn't Know About Why I'm an Unfunny Autist" or "8 Stupid Things You Don't Need to Know About Last Week's SJW Obsession."
