      That’s a rehash episode they did years or even decades later (hard to say with the simpsons offhand) when the writing got a lot more “phone it in”. The episode they tweet references an episode from the second season and she’s mad about itchy and scratchy, the meta cartoon inside the show.

      As others have said though this argument predates the simpsons by basically the entirety of modern human existence

      The comments on that are pretty awful. Bunch of reactionaries using it as an excuse to dish on marginalised groups.
