      All this censorship is relatively new (last decade). For the longest time I recalled a cartoon in which some cartoon in which an Opera singer had a problem with a audience member. During his performance the audience member would throw things at the singer, including spraying him with ink, which lead toi a black face number, and anvil, which led to a deeper tones black faced singer, and a symbol, which lead to a charicature of a Chinaman.

      Then one day I saw it again, and the blackface part had vanisned. I knew something was missing, but I could not place what., until I saw the uncensored version again.

            I thought about going to my regular kebab joint and blast Prince Ali from the Aladdin soundtrack..

            "MAAAKE WAYYY FOR PRINCE AAAAALII!!" and go in with a towel on my head.

            But then I thought they wouldn't understand a good joke, instead they'd spit in my food so no.. I won't do it. I like my kebab.

                Amos and Andy's adventures with Kingfish, sure. I can understand that being no more.

                  More like two decades ago - I remember seeing the censored toons in the 80s.

                    Well I guess I didn't know about anti-Japanese racist attacks or anti-black racist attacks.

                      Well we don't censor things that are critical of the government, and we are free to cpmplain when silly decsions by jumped up officals are made.

                      So quite alot does really.

                          I swear I remember a Tom and Jerry cartoon which ended with Tom and Jerry lying together and smoking cigars. Back then I didn't understand what it was about.

                          Heckel and Jeckel is another one that you'll never see replayed because of the racial stereotyping. Racial stereotyping also used to be fairly common on Woody Woodpecker.

                            Heckel and Jeckel. True, and it's a shame in my opinion.

                                It's a shame that they had such racist garbage, not that it's a shame that they will never replay such ****.
