Bonus #232 - Comics Were Woke in the 50s? (Extra Dose)

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.

Thank you, I really enjoy making them. One of these days I'll have some reason to make a video about the time Topps released 3 sets of trading cards themed around the Gulf War.

I like these style of Buckley videos where he goes into some obscure history

Thank you, Buckley, for rightfully calling out this disgusting, bigoted comic book for assuming the arthropod class of a spider. Spiders everywhere can hopefully feel less oppressed now that the sicko behind this article is in the processes of being cancelled.
