6/7/2023 0 Comments The sloth from zootopia![]() And on top of that, I still I have I to pay extra for guac, too?! That just ain't right. Chipotle burritos are the most expensive in New York state. Rihanna spoke the truth when she said "All I see is dollar signs." The cost of living in New York City is incredibly high and continues to rise every day. Have you ever noticed that those really cool sounding sweepstakes usually include a trip to New York City? A free trip seems awesome, right? Yeah, if you don't already live here. Why do we keep using this childish phrase meant to shrug off childish behavior to justify sexual assault? People are often so surprised why we continue to use this kind of logic allegation after allegation. However, this logic is what makes 994 rapists that will walk free out of 1000. What does this kind of logic look and sound like? Parochial, vindicate using survivors to support, defend, blame fend, blame, or have to ever support a political after years of therapy, trauma, and fear has decided to come forward with her story in an attempt to prevent Brett Kavanaugh, the Republican Supreme Court Nominee, from sitting on a panel that is supposed to stand for equality and justice. Why do people protect the predators and blame survivors for calumny? The answer is never as simple, but the logic behind it ![]() Why do people believe that sexual trauma convicting sexual predators is a "steep price to pay for 20 minutes of action?" " Do you have anything to gain by coming here? Has anybody promised you anything for coming forth with this story now?" - Sen. Now he, like many predators, is worried about being harassed because of his “biology.” Nick is a predator and feels stereotyped by other citizens because he’s a fox. Nick is (justifiably) outraged and hurt by this lapse in judgement by Judy to put out such a statement that will affect so many innocent predators (and their friendship). Once the news breaks that predators have gone “savage” the media goes into a frenzy over Judy’s comments about biology being a possible factor. In this case, predators are the minority group as they make up only 10% of Zootopia. Zootopia deals with the issue of police and minorities. Many times throughout history, people in power have used “biology” as a justification for keeping marginalized groups marginalized. ![]() This was not only good satire about politicians, but hopefully Mayor Lionheart’s character shows kids (and adults) that people in power do try to get away with bad things even if it is a “classic doing the wrong thing for the right reason.” Lionheart is only concerned about his own interests (staying mayor), so he lies to citizens of Zootopia about the predator going “savage” issue.ĥ. Thankfully the filmmakers portrayed Judy as a strong, independent woman (that’s right, I’m using this phrase to describe a bunny) that has grit and “doesn’t know when to quit.”Ĥ. She doesn’t back down, and while refusing to be intimidated by bullies is great, it can have consequences that make you give up, or feed your determination. Judy receives the same message from Gideon Gray, but he bullies her because she stands up to him. He is muzzled and humiliated into believing he can’t be anything other than the expectations others have of him. ![]() Nick is bullied by young prey scouts because he is a predator and the boys believe he can’t be trusted. The best part of this film for teaching kids (and apparently certain adults) about stereotypes and expectations is when both Judy and Nick are bullied as kids, but for different reasons. Nick is a “sly fox” and Judy is a “dumb bunny” It might as well be run by sloths named “Flash, Flash, hundred yard dash!” 3. Anyone who’s ever been to the DMV knows that this is not just a joke, but a fact. I thought the DMV run by sloths was absolutely hilarious.
