WARNING: What follows should not be read and seen by children.
As you probably have heard or seen, The New Yorker has put on it’s latest cover an illustration of the Sesame Street characters Bert and Ernie on a couch in a lover’s cuddle, watching TV. Here it is [courtesy of Darleen Click]:
As Darleen comments:
Bert & Ernie are iconic figures for children, showing a long and abiding friendship between two people who are very different. Friendships matter and we can all find ways of caring for people who are not just like us.
And The New Yorker crudely murders it all with the crude, smutty snickering that they weren’t just buddies, but fuck-buddies all along.
In the Comments section, Friend In The Ether Serr8d remarks:
Actually, I like the New Yorker cover illustration. I’ve always seen gay lovers as a bit unreal and almost cartoonish, and still I’m convinced that ‘gay marriage’ is but an attack on one of the necessary foundational pillars of a strong, moral society. This cover affirms that just a bit.
While I agree with Serr8d’s sentiment, I despise this cover because children will end up seeing it. And they are living in a confused-enough Society right now, what with the Left’s takeover, corrupting, and falsification of all of it’s areas.
Our children don’t need one more view from the funhouse mirror to further exacerbate the Chaos that already envelopes them and draws them into the Living Hell that is depravity of the Soul.
This cover is insidious and monstrous.
But it is just another display stall in The Atrocity Exhibition…
