Dennis The Mincer? Will ‘Gnasher’ Become ‘Nancy?’
Catching up on news I missed whilst enjoying my vacation, I was alarmed to learn that “Dennis the Menace” is now a non-person…
=
=
…replaced by somebody called ‘plain Dennis in the weekly Beano and its annual.’
Like the Old Bolsheviks on trial in Stalin’s Evil Empire, those in power have decided the character much-loved by generations of kids had “made mistakes in the past.”
No firing squad in these more permissive times, but evidently sent for psychiatric rehab, the recalcitrant has “moved away from his ‘menacing’ ways”.
-
Comic Commissar Mike Stirling, head of Beano Studios Scotland, was adamant that Dennis had not actually been a menace for some time…

-
“He has moved away from his ‘menacing’ ways, but still dances to the beat of his own drum…’
-
Dancing in pink tights? To the music of The Village People?
-
After all, he is obliged to fit into a new series, ‘Dennis & Gnasher Unleashed,’ which will embrace…
-
Guess what?
-
…difference and diversity..
-
Oh For God’s Sake!
-
I suppose poor Gnasher will soon be renamed Nancy-Dog?
-
C’mon, Comrade Commissar! Normal people must be getting sick and tired of this brain-washing ‘diversity’ crap.
-
If the PC pinko pack could at least be honest about their indoctrinational intentions, but no…
-
Beano bosses have denied the change is a concession to political correctness.
-
Instead they have argued that this is just part of the evolution of Dennis’s character. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/dennis-the-menace-rebrand-beano-cbbc-cartoon-a8130436.html

Give it a rest!
-
Compulsory character-evolution has been going on for thirty years.
- The antics of Dennis the Menace were toned down to avoid claims that the character encouraged ‘gay-bashing’, a former editor of The Beano revealed yesterday. Picking on Walter the Softy…

That pathetic PC Beano berk, a certain Comrade Kerr, who ran the show from 1984 (note the year!) till 2006, apparently fretted about the relationship between Dennis and Walter.
-
‘We decided to make sure Walter was completely happy about who he was and a confident, likeable character.’

And from that same link, I learned that another old fave, from The Beano’s stable-mate, The Dandy, Desperate Dan, a stubbly, burly cowboy who shaved with a blowtorch and smoked big cigars – was put on a diet.
-
No more cow-pies with horns protruding therefrom. Worse, his six-shooter was replaced with a water pistol. Dan was also banned from giving baddies a smack on the head or a slipper across the bottom…
-
BTW, North American readers should know their Dennis The Menace is NOT the same as the Brit character.
-
The UK lad was, in my view, much more menacing, and thus more fun, than the American boy, but even his cartoon capers must have filled pinko creeps with horror…
-
…not least because his Dad knew how properly to punish naughtiness.
-
Pathetic, inflicting PC pukery on children.
-
Or is it adults?
-
I haven’t read a Beano or Dandy for half a century, but judging from the timing of cartoon shows on late night tv…

…it seems the infantilisation of society is rampant!

I left your blog open on my screen because you usually produce something new for us to appreciate every day and this was worth waiting for.
These Beano ‘Commissars’ (a good word you chose for them) are unbelievable. Nothing is beyond their devious minds.
Poor children, missing out on good fun because these latter-day Walter The Softy types have got control of the comic industry as well of so much of the adult media.
Speaking of adult and children’s media, I like your closing words about those ridiculous ‘adult’ cartoons. They have them here too. Although I have never watched cartoons since my children grew up, I decided one night to see what they were all about.
Never seen anything so stupid as that ‘American Dad.’
What kind of retarded ‘adults’ watch that rubbish?. –

They can’t even leave the kids alone.
That’s how we tend to react to this kind of thing but the truth of the matter is that it’s the kids they want most of all.
If they can detach another generation from normal human thinking patterns, the way they’ve done with so many millennials, we’re ruined totally.
