In the 90s it was just that hokey ass cartoon that was 99% right and we are now FUCKED. Donald Trump would be tweeting about that show as liberal propaganda if it was current. Tbh that cartoon wears its environmental propaganda on its sleeve. It even had episodes about overpopulation and STDs. That's crazy.

That show also has a villain try to drill into an animal preserve, which is something Sarah Palin campaigned on. We have become the villains in that show.

This is what I mean about cartoon villainy.

Although that overpopulation episode was all kinds of fucked.

The thing is, it's not funny. What the hell happened where people seem to revel in being against science, facts, and even common sense? Captain Planet was goofy as hell but you are dead right, if it happened today it would be panned by certain people for being "political"

I wouldn't be surprised if sooner or later parents don't start having their kids pulled from class when it's time to learn about how the Earth isn't flat...
