What was the moral of this show?

That there are nicer terms for middle easterners

People at PFFR said it was a warning about the dangers of New Age spirituality, but honestly I don't think there was a moral.

The show has god tier humor though.

How is new age dangerous?

>>92475060
That you can lose brain cells without the use of alcohol

spirituality is just a lack of spiritotality if you don't have the cents to understand what your metaphysical dollars can buy.

The usual answer? It had no point and it wasn't supposed to be understood

The actual answer? Depends on the episode..

This shit was wonderful. Absurdity without the a real existential/absurd moral.

Also, flashbacks involving Xavier's master were lit.

Each episode is kind of a parody of some kind of storytelling cliche or a specific well known story.
>"Chief Beef Loco": Troubled gang kids who are actually sensitive on the inside (like The Outsiders)
>"Pet Siouxicide": Bratty rich kid who learns humility(Willy Wonka).
>"Escape from Squatopian Freedom": Anarchism, Punk Rock fans, Hippies, The sovereign citizen movement.
>"Xavier's Maneuver": The Godfather, gangster movies in general.
>"El Tornadador" Self-Harm for the sake of art, Goth, Emo and Scene kids.
>"Going Normal" tv show Bosom Buddies, "The American Dream", people who are not Straight White Men trying to be successful in business.
>"Braingeas Final Cranny" The Greek tragedy, Oedipus by Sophocles

You sound like some total chodes inability to confront the reality of his past actions.

>>92479221
But new age in general is a coping mechanism based around philosophies of the modern era, using people who are lost spiritually or emotionally (i.e. Hippies) to enraptured them into cults. See Aum Shinrykio

Chief Beef Loco is peak Xavier

>And she's all "oh my god that puppy is the cutest thing in the world" and it's like "I'm standing right here, mom, I'm standing right here"

>Show's on Youtube
Should I give it a try? It looks like the kind of thing some college CG artist would ironically make and then people start watching it through /tv/ Youtubekino threads.

>>92479221
Religion is an organized, metaphysical cosmology. (The term "organized religion" is such a pet peeve of mine, religion is inherently organized.) New Age and Wicca and stuff like that essentially try to make spirituality into a physical thing through reliance on little bullshit rituals and trinkets and things; it's essentially trying to turn real-life into fantasy escapism.

Nobody cares what you think, chomsky-honk.

I was in the same boat as you not long ago and had written it off as some retarded stoner humor, then I caught it on T.V. and actually listened to it. It's legitimately got some of the most clever writing I've ever seen in an animated series.

I personally think it's one of the best animated shows ever made, but it really isn't for everyone. Majority of the jokes come from lightning speed puns and wordplay that depending on how you can catch up is going to take multiple viewings to catch every single one.
