    Is anyone able to say this meme isn’t straight-up racist? One of the show’s only persons-of-color, and he’s literally at a gang hideout looking for crack. WTF!?

      Most of the cast were people of color. Bob, Mr. Hooper, and Linda are the only white ones from back then I can think of off the top of my head.

      Isn’t that kind of the point of “bertstrips”? To take something as wholesome as Sesame Street and make it as twisted and messed-up as possible?

      Not really my kind of humour, but I’m trying to populate some of the communities which were on feddit.de, which has since shut down.
