A child molester

I'm sure that will be so entertaining to watch

>>80657193
Is the theme that all the muppets have some sort of mental illness?

Did they end up bringing a gay couple onto sesame street, or were they cucked by all the evangelical christians

setting things up for the first trans muppet I see

Just wait 30 years until they're all autistic
Then all the children will be autistic
Then they all grow into adults
And the rich jews are the only ones left without autism

They can't do it now, PBS is already on the chopping block and it's a republican Congress. They'd be committing suicide

i work with ppl who have autism, and a lot of them are obsessed with sesame street because it was on so much when they were younger. most of them won't give a shit about this at all, but a few "higher functioning" ones might find it fun. honestly a lot of time this shit seems like pandering, but considering how many autistic people love this show i don't really see the harm in it. to me this is a lot more appropriate than some sort of "gay" or "trans" character considering sexuality doesnt have any business being anywhere fucking near a childrens show.

I hope xhe is going to sound like that one guy from South Park

>>80657193
I'm okay with an autistic Muppet. Teach the kids about autism and shit.

>unless it's straight romances

i hope you're against children watching disney princess movies. they don't need to be corrupted by those blatant shows of sexuality

They're putting shit in the water to make us retards

HBO pretty much own Sesame Street right now, so they'll keep it going.

You guys aren't seriously upset are you?

I love seeing this video posted in every Arthur thread.

How do you even pull this off? Balls the wall smashing up rooms, screaming and hitting itself will just get complaints from autism groups and soccermoms. Having her be normal while occasionally reminding everyone she has autism would get autism groups complaining that Sesame street is just trying to milk their condition for ratings.

It's not a physical thing condition like someone in a wheelchair or being black, mental things are a television minefield.

They'll probably mention in her first episode that some people have different kinds of autism.

Although, kids who have serious non-functioning autism probably wouldn't be interacting much with normal kids anyway, so it's not as important that they learn about them.

This feels like the most reasonable conclusion. It makes a whole lot more sense than the metaphysical gender shit.

>>80657861
This doesn't surprise me. I always had a theory that feminists are female autists.
>Don't understand comedy
>Don't like being touched
>Speech that sounds very monotonous or flat
speaking in pre-learned phrases, rather than putting together individual words to form new sentences
>Seeming to talk "at" people, rather than sharing a two-way conversation

There are loads more.

>implying Sesame Street has any romance in it
>implying transfaggotry is equivalent to a non-sexualized romance
>implying sexual aberrations of any sort should be shown to children

Are you going to suggest children's programming should include foot fetishism next?
