Swedish multicultural propaganda on children's TV

This is what's going on in Sweden.

I find this quite sickening, how they are brainwashing children to think that multiculturalism is like a paradise with rainbows and everyone is happy. While the reality is quite different.
I mean, it's almost as bad in norway but at least you can be political incorrect without having to face severe consequences...

I can't watch the video right now, but what's wrong with promoting multi-culturalism in children's programming? I sort of always thought Sesame Street was a good thing.

[Gamdwelf]

USA did it first!



But srsly when haven't children's songs promoted friendliness and togetherness and sharing?

I see no problem.

You have propaganda and children in one sentence and you don't see what's wrong with that? What is the world coming to?
I guess you are not to blame, given that the US indoctrinates their children as well... with the pledge of alliagence and all.

I don't see the problem, surely integration and tolerance is the answer to most of the worlds problems?

"Propaganda" is subjective, especially when espoused in regards to a heavily contentious issue.

Um......what? I don't even understand what you are talking about. It's not propaganda is a children's song, about sharing. Have you even read the text of the pledge of allegiance? I mean if you think liberty and justice for all is horrible propaganda.

I thought we already had that 25 years ago with David the Gnome.

Showing children that many cultures have great things to offer and that people who are different aren't scary or bad isn't a bad thing. If parents don't want their kids to see it, they can change the channel, but it's a good message, and one which most children's programming has been doing since Sesame Street first came on the air. I'd go so far as to say programming that doesn't include multiple cultures feels more propagandish to me.

To be fair, I have a problem with the Pledge of Allegiance, but that's not really what this topic is about.

Not sure the issue here. Would it be more preferable if it were a bunch of white children only jumping around pretending that all people are as pure as them?

If you don't love America you can just get out! /sarcasm.

Careful, you'll get the MMOC multicultural police on you if you say stuff like this. Prepare to get hated on for what you just wrote..

I've had someone say that to me without the sarcasm when I said that before. They pretty much completely missed the point.

[Neliah]

Why does this remind me of when Teletubbies were accused for promoting homosexuality, because one of them were wearing a handbag.

[Algernon]

This is scary... not the video, but that people actually see this as propaganda.

I guess it would be better if the video showed people of different races killing each other?

That's an incredibly ridiculous thing to say. The best way to change the reality of multiculturalism now is to teach children, the future of our world, that it is something to be embraced and enjoyed, not shunned.

my god, white children in proximity to children of varying shades of brown! this cannot be, never in my fine time/place of 1950 alabama!
