Racism in Children's Shows Part 1.5

Finally, I have found another show more racist than any of the other shows I mentioned in that earlier post (see: Racism, furry boots, and panchos) combined. "The Smurfs" is possibly the most blatantly racist show ever to air on public programming. Right, I hear you all asking "how is Smurfs racist, it's just a kids cartoon". Let me explain. All the blood in the human body travels through one central location. That's the heart. The color most closely associated with "cold" is blue. So in turn when someone is cold-hearted or hateful, that would make their blood blue. Now follow me I am going somewhere with this. If the blood is blue and it travels through the entire body it would give the flesh a blue tone. When white people get cold they turn blue right? Of course they do. So that correlates the blue skin and white people. Now everyone in the town serves a purpose. There's handy smurf and artist smurf, and prostitute smurf, (I believe everyone remembers her as Smurfette). They all had talents and used those talents to make a living in the village. They did these various tasks in all white outfits. Now it doesn't take a genius to see that these outfits are all white with a hood. Now Papa Smurf, was different, he was older and he wore an all red hooded outfit. Now is it me or does that sound eerily close to the KLAN? All the members have on white hoods and the Grand Wizard (or Grand Dragon or whatever he is called) or "leader" has on an all red hood. Now even though they animated the head villain as a white guy, there is no way he was white. How many Caucasians have you met named "Gargamel"? Now let's take a trip to the ghetto, I bet we find that name, or something close to it, in abundance. You can let your kids watch that stuff if you want to, but not me. It's hateful I tell ya. Just hateful.
