Sesame Street is ‘a propaganda tool for the Left’

[Eddie Teach]

OK, do FDR and Pinochet.

FDR's policies may have saved the US from a potential communist revolution, he favored a muscular foreign policy, he was racially insensitive. OTOH, he greatly increased the size of the government and he fought the Nazis. So even from a modern mainstream US pov he can be argued both ways. When you consider that communists would consider his New Deal to be right-wing reactionism and many or most of his contemporaries saw nothing wrong with his internment of Japanese-Americans it's clear that the terms need a lot of context to be descriptive in a helpful way.

Don't really know much about Pinochet.

To be honest, I fail to see what "fighting the Nazis" has anything to do with FDR's political stances. Hint: governments sometimes go to war with other governments of the same type/ideology. (For example, monarchies sometimes fought with each other in history, it does not make one of the anti-monarchist or republican).

I also remember watching "Barrio Sésamo" in high school Spanish class, which was hilarious.

Proper Spanish Barrio Sésamo or some Latin American version?
