Mind control programming in the media, a la fascist/Nazi/Mafia indoctrination into rape/racist/genocidal culture conformity: There is a great element of reverse psychology to all this, which I do not elaborate on in this post but I add it as a brief mention at the onset. How I wish people would take a more introspective look at the entertainment celebrity culture pretentions about being "liberal" however it may help to assuage the alarmist "fearful" arguments of the ultra conservatives. //The perceptual shift of representation of "powerful" women from the 70's to our now anti-abortion/fascist, pornographic society. Women who are intellectually adept and don't pose in pornographic posturing and revealment of their sexuality as blatantly as possible "must" be "lesbian".//Velma from Scooby Doo as an upgraded "lesbian" character.

 Huffington Post: New 'Scooby-Doo' Film Makes It Official: Velma Is Queer

When I watched Scooby Doo back in the 70's, Velma was like so many of the activists who were NOT LESBIAN who wore sandals, long necklaces, and turtle-neck sweaters. It was a type of intellectual fashion statement. The women were not anti-male sex whatsoever and in fact wanted loving and positive relationships with other men. There may indeed have been lesbians within that fashion/political niche but I never once heard or saw anything of that not flamboyantly sexualized intellectual group claiming they were fighting for lesbian rights, but rather for human rights and the end of war. The ultimate reversal of a former anti-sexist trend in the backlash against Feminism, in addition to ending Roe v. Wade, is the presumption that a woman who does not flaunt her erogenous zones, exposing her breasts and sexual curves and highly effeminate traits must be a lesbian, for how could she be otherwise, according to the most sexist representation of women now available for male and female consumption and imitation. Thus, an "intellectual" woman who is passivist against the Hawkish War and pornographic culture that has completely over-run all varieties of media entertainment and even in political realms--the women who are of the "liberal" and "anti-war" front must also pose as sexualized women when they get a media promotion. A woman to cover her body up to her neck, must be, therefore, according to the pornographic representation of women that has been put forward by the men who role fashion iconography who really want a reversal of all the feminist and women-strengthening movements of the past 50 years to be absolutely reversed.

The front of "Velma" being a "lesbian" will be touted as some "freedom" and "feminist" statement, especially when her object of desire is a "Black" cartoon character, making her even more "radical and liberal" enemy and hateful and unattractive--and just look at how dopey and stupid she appears in her silly cocked-eyed representation in this clip from the dumb and dumbing down movie that is coming out, (pun intended). Again, there is a reversal of a serious movement making the object of rebellion appear dumb, sexually deviant and almost obscenely unattractive and dyke food for consumption and elimination. It is a psychological reversal intended to make women only want more to emphasize their sexuality and body parts to not be as "ugly" and "stupid" as Velma who appears like a kind of dumb and ugly thing in this clip from this modernized remake of the former Vietnam War protest-era intellectual which was desiring of male love and affection--from what I experienced having been around University anti-war protestors all my childhood in the 70's at the University of Illinois where my parents went on marches, got arrested, and had meetings and parties with all levels of students during that time; up until the mid-70's. I was directly exposed to that culture and saw many women dressing exactly like Velma, who never mentioned lesbianism as far as I knew in the very adult situations I was (the only child) around--my brothers and sisters mostly stayed away but I was fascinated by them and heard what they were saying, even at a very tender, young age of 5 or 6.

The same women who were passionately in love with their husbands who wore the same sandals and long-necked sweaters and funky hippie necklaces got DIVORCED once the macho disco cult arrived at the late 70's. They were just following trends dictated to them to follow. They went from the intellectual male-loving culture to the "Me Generation" to the "Me 2" media porno rape culture enabling, divorced and orgy enablers who are so scant in intellectual prowess and must rely exclusively on displaying their breasts and thighs and genitals whenever possible to obtain any kind of permission to appear as "independent" women at all.

The next culture wars cartoon character (symbolic) log on the bombshell fire storm--2nd in the same month--one was a black mermaid the next is a lesbian on a crush on another (and it's apparently a black cartoon character) and oh my, will the former Scooby Doo fans become enraged and claim this is a transgression against the 70's cartoon franchise?
