Hey everyone, it's Bonus Dose Day! Consider this week's video a companion piece to the "Woke/Anti-Woke Existed in the 90s" video I did a while back, where I showed you the letters-to-the-editors complaining about the white video game character pointing a gun at a black video game character on the cover of Playstation Magazine. Perhaps, while watching this, you'll have the same feeling of "wow, THIS was printed 65 years ago?!" as I did. Enjoy!
While reading a reprint of a comic from 1959, Buckley stumbled upon a PSA. Printed 65 years ago, shortly after a comic featuring an American fist-fighting a... umm... German Captain... into submission, a page was dedicated to teaching your grandpa CRT! But wait, didn't media JUST start getting heavy handed and start trying to indoctrinate your kids in the 2020s? Buckley presents more evidence that the more things change, the more they stay the same.
