Someone should draw a comic of Ernie as Gi-hun and Bert as Sang-woo during episode 8 of Squid Game

I didnt really think that there were regular races in Sesame Street, what with the characters being orange, yellow, blue, green, etc. lol

Bert is actually an ancient Sumerian. His name was Lugal-Berta-si and he was the King of Uruk.
He cursed Enlil and was banished into the wilderness, where he wandered for millennia until he found himself on Sesame Street.

Sounds legit.

Besides that, expect more muppet porn.

Wow, I didn't realise there was so much depth to Sesame Street. Thanks for clearing that up.

I didn't realize Muppets had ethnicity.

Good on them for being inclusive.

So I guess any muppet that isn't a defined race/ethnicity is white by default?

Why?

I don't know. Most likely not to be honest. Like the other muppets are not exactly "human" or don't have a clear racial/ethnic background so I'm wondering what does it mean for the other muppets now that there's one that has a clear ethnicity and culture. Of course there might be others like Ji-young I'm not aware of.

Like are they just "generic" people? What are they?

Usually when a muppet is given a specific race it's because the race is relevant to the story the writers want to tell

So in the late 90s there was some weird meme about him being a middle eastern terrorist. It has not aged well. Google "evil bert" for more info

Lol, conservatives are going to melt down over "woke ass" Sesame Street "pandering".

Yet I bet those same conservatives would applaud it if the puppet had slanty eyes, buck teeth, straw hat and yellow skin.

Incidentally, Alabama was also the last of the US states to formally strike down its anti-interracial marriage laws. ...In 2000.

I thought muppets were all just monsters. Even the human looking ones. Elmo is a monster. Big Bird can call himself a bird, monster is a more apt descriptor.

Wow racist. You think everyone is a monster. There are monsters and humans. And animals. Baby Bear for example, is not a monster. He is a bear.
