    The difference is it didn’t feel forced, you can only make people behave with law enforcement or having them see it your way when they reach that conclusion themselves.

      … it felt SUPER forced in the cartoons of the 80s and 90s. It’s not really any different. Probably less ham-fisted now, if anything.

      The only reason most of these things feel forced is because people are more perceptive and media literate now. It was always pretty corny. If anything I think it’s better now.
