In a world that seems increasingly bent on turning reality upside down, Netflix has once again crossed a line that many parents find difficult to accept. This time, they’ve endorsed a children’s show that champions agendas best left for more mature audiences. Thousands, including notable figures like Elon Musk, have taken a stand and decided enough is enough, canceling their Netflix subscriptions in droves.
In the controversial scene, a character reveals, “I’m trans,” and proceeds with what can only be described as modern-day indoctrination, all wrapped up in a colorful children’s package. It’s not just a fleeting mention either. The show revolves around themes that are arguably more complex than a young child should be encouraged to grapple with. Instead of focusing on wholesome values or fun adventures, it seems the creators have chosen to check every box on the progressive checklist, ensuring that the narrative is all about identity politics and radical gender ideology.
For those who remember when children’s shows were about learning ABCs or moral lessons, this new direction feels like an unwelcome departure. It’s not about shunning diversity or inclusivity; it’s about questioning whether these themes are really what seven-year-olds need to be pondering. The main character, a self-identified “gay trans teen boy,” navigates a world that mirrors the most extreme corners of the internet rather than one children actually inhabit. Accompanied by a supporting cast boasting features such as bisexuality, autism, and anxiety, the program reads like a political manifesto rather than a child-friendly show.
Behind this show is Hamish Steele, a figure who proudly displays his pronouns as he/they and has a history of targeting conservative voices, having previously labeled prominent conservative commentator Charlie Kirk as a “Nazi.” One has to wonder about the motivations of someone who would create content for young children while holding such demonstrably divisive and radical views.
As subscriptions plummet and Netflix feels the financial squeeze, parents are delivering a clear message: stop feeding our children agendas they are too young to comprehend. It’s a stand not just against one show, but against a wider culture that pushes boundaries at the cost of childhood innocence. Families are demanding a return to common sense, and for Netflix’s sake, hopefully, they’re listening.
