Give Pepe Back His Job!

The Issue

Cancel culture is yet again trying to poison the world with their crybaby ways. Beloved though overly passionate skunk,Pepe LePew is being canceled from the Space Jam 2 movie simply because of who he is. This well established character has brought laughs to generations of Looney Toons fans for decades. We can NOT allow this to keep continuing. Warnings on classics like Dumbo and Gone With the WInd? Statues taken down? This? Where does it stop? Eventually all we will end up with is a bland whitewashed version of history where nothing bad or uncomfortable ever happened. Is Pepe kinda pushy in his romantic overtures? Sure, but that is the core  substance of his character. A passionate French skunk. Shame on Warner for caving to just a minority of folks who somehow have the biggest mouths. We already know that Space Jam 2 will NOT Be as good as the original, and this just proves that even more. But WB,this is YOUR movie. YOUR characters, YOUR legacy! Don't let a handful of crybabies make you change. We, the people with common sense, a backbone, and a sense of humor, ask that you NOT bow to cancel culture and keep Pepe in the movie.If we just stay silent and allow the cancel crowd to continue on their merry way,we will soon live in such a plain boring world,that it won't even be worth being alive.
