Subtle racism in "Cloudy with a chance of meatballs"

[Juliet]

Seems like an innocent kids movie, right? I can't believe I never noticed this before



Why does the characterisation of the monkey seem so familiar? Who are they trying to depict?

I don’t get it doesn’t seem racist

As the resident woke person on this forum, you’re reaching abaayo.

Use that energy to vote labor this election. Queensland always disappoints us.

What’s racist tho ?

She points a knife at the group, is depicted as hostile, discriminated against, gets called a monkey when she is in fact an ape and is told she isn't a scientist in a satirical manner. They also show her salivating, which means they wanted to show how ill-mannered she was. It's all hints, and that was all I could pick up from this clip.

She was:
Overweight
obvious fake hair
Pressed about skinny Becky reporter's hair
Berated and told she is less than what she really is
Agressive

Its all subliminal.....

That one acts like a 16 year old white girl, the animators didn’t use black stereotypes

In Aggretsuko you can tell they were trynna depict the ugly gorilla as black tho it’s blatant
