    I would like to add that it’s kinda rare for an United-stasian cartoon to put the Brazilian flag in a “bunch of world flags” scene. Damn, they went that far into putting it in the middle of the screen! That’s unusual!

    (Mark my words, we will take over the world soon enough /jk)

      With how he is, it’s more likely one of the animators slipped it in there and he didn’t notice. You can bet nickelodeon definitely didn’t notice.

            I followed that link fully prepared to watch the entire hour and a half video. I guess it has to be some YouTube conceit, but holy fuck that person narrating needs to fucking talk like a normal person. It sounds like they recorded a bunch of single lines, then spliced them all in like voiceovers in post, but it’s every single sentence. Or maybe they’re trying to talk like the text to speech TikTok voice?

            Bros just saying some arbitrary factoid and sounds like he’s doing the overdub for a 90’s movie trailer.

              I know she’s not great but illuminaughtii made a pretty informative video about this a few years back. I hope it wasn’t plagiarized from someone else.

              Tldw: he became a far-right christian grifter.

              Honestly, agreed. The content is good but the voiceover sucks. It irritates me too.

              If I can find a better source of info about why Butch Hartman sucks, I’ll post it.

        I agree, which is why it was really unexpected. I also agree with others here that it’s more likely a rogue animator perhaps snuck it in.

    I love when shows have subtle nods to show their support for these things rather than having to draw as much attention as possible to how progressive they are being

      Here we are 23 years later learning about this, it’s kind of making the nostalgia around this show shine again.

    The list from english wikipedia says my country (Brazil) only recognised Palestine in 2010

    But in portutugese wikipedia it is said we’ve recognised them since 1975.

    I don’t know which one is right, so.

      Pretty sure I have a French language DVD of that specific Teletubbies episode. Pirated too.

      And yes, it’s only that episode.

      It’s possible, but even at that level of detail it would have been trivial to add a white dot and elongate the red triangle. I’m thinking they intended it to be Palestine.

    My country was one of the first. It also recently recognized Israel as well. Everyone I know is protesting the latter.

    Spoiler: it’s Morocco.

    The second image in the lead is showing the list of countries who recognised Palestine after the episode in question. Based on the title, you need the list of countries who recognised before.

    And yes, we recognised them in 1988.
