Explaining John K's Offensive Joke

Breaking down a very good joke over a decade later to unveil the real messaging of John K's Worldview.

Before the sexual accusations against John K, John was hated for, in addition to other things like harshly criticizing The Real ghostbusters, Animaniacs and The Iron Giant; telling some offensive jokes. For some of them you need to have a certain mindset like being a manchild trying to break into the Los Angeles animation industry. Jokes about Animaniacs are a good example. But the Voldemort Word, nigger, is universal in the culture I grew up in.

That's the joke. It caused quite a bit of controversy back then when John K's blog was running. Back then people were buckbroken and appreciative of Whoopi Goldberg for saving most Looney Tunes cartoons for them that had offensive content which all upstanding human beings in the late 00s must have condemned. Nobody really noticed the strange contradiction of wanting to save things they would never support making today.

As I have spoken of previously I believe that comics and cartoons are manifestations of an ancient primordial culture associated with the nation of Africa defined in reference to the trickster, an incomprehensible Cosmic Being who is not the same kind of creature as God, but uses the term God as a title to be the supreme God over Africa. This figure is Lord of two things, one of which are stories. And therefore the primordial Africa is an inherently creative Nation, a different kind of nation than the ones we know today.

And thereby the joke is really simple. People call a creative work “rape” provocatively when it makes a travesty of what it is supposed to be doing, like adapting a book. John was likening the entirety of how people in that time approached comics and cartoons to be rape. An assessment that I echoed in my online comments, where I never considered really anything to be up to standard of how things should be in that time. Later things of a quality level that I thought should have been already made were made, like Samurai Jack season 5. And thereby the poor work of people in the comic and cartoons Industries was a violation towards all black people.

Their hotel was a place to arrive to perform such violations at the Con, hence “N****** Rape Inn.”

Got to say that the psychological state of people in the comics and cartoons Industries in the decade after, and how they treated me, reflects the fact that they eventually realized this is what the joke was on some level. John was a great writer and great writers make work that takes time to digest.

Next I want to give an example of what these violations actually constitute.

This is justifying making a travesty of how cartoons were drawn back then, which constitutes a regular type of violation that you saw back then.

This also relates to the common phrase “But the STORY is what matters!”, which people used for decades to justify bad or mediocre artwork in animation. This relates to the Trickster's twin domains that include Story, and so it is non-consciously implying that as long as there is some sort of story being told, it doesn't matter how badly they work in these black art forms. But of course just because he's associated with Story doesn't mean that is all there is to him, just as the equivalent of God being Existence doesn't mean that love and justice does not come from him. This is certainly a penetrating violation which is dependent upon the roof of the trickster’s reality not having broken open, and so resembles drugged assault like Bill Cosby was accused of.

The Disappearance of the phrase, which was practically the slogan of the Disney side of animation, can be a good sign they indeed realized the joke on some level and adjusted their rhetoric accordingly in the 10s.

And so what is really offensive about this joke is how it flips the table under the current Zeitgeist of the late 00s. Rather than political correctness, the predecessor of social justice which is the predecessor of woke, marching towards a great politically solved future, it in fact is more and more disrespecting Black Culture and undoing the period from about the mid-90s to the mid-00s when people thought that racism was a thing of the past. And so John needed to be destroyed to further the mainstream narrative.

People became quite offended by this joke in the comment box and presumably elsewhere.

People who hated on him for this fell into the ploy of the increasingly cancerous mainstream to think that they actually wanted to help black people instead of further a social climate which prevents their ancient culture from arising from a lost past, far beyond the quality of what you can find from Modern African pagans of recent centuries, although they show signs of it.

In the next decade when the mainstream won, comics and cartoons became increasingly atrocious garbage with rare exception, and you have to wonder how much impact this has on the mental health of all black people in America, just as it harms white people to see their own ancient culture being damaged in its current manifestation. I have seen very cute and appealing drawings from black artists here and there like you can't find in mainstream artwork but remind me of things I doodled over the years. Not the same thing at all as redrawing anime characters as black, which is the deranged alternative the mainstream presents to respecting comics and cartoons.

John K should have won for the alternate state where white people say the Voldemort Word and comics and cartoons are allowed to flourish. This has wider ramifications outside of the “N****** Rape” comics and cartoons Culture.

As for his remark about Marlo, it reminds me of how Dana Terrace, Rebecca Sugar, Katie Rice, Kali Fontecchio, and other mostly white females moved into the animation industry and gradually gave up their passion for cartooning and adapted to a climate which expects them to forsake anything that could be associated with John Kricfalusi, with some having greater resistance than others. Rebecca sugar trying to say important things about relationships and do cool stuff with cartoons, but nobody else was receptive to it. Being recently given voting rights could relate to Comic and Cartoon artwork being recently driven by non-creatives instead of by people like Jack Kirby, who were given “votes” on the direction of the fields through their ability and vision.
