TRAFFIC LIGHTS for October 14, 2019

Vectors courtesy of @VectorStock.
RED LIGHT to Holly M. Barker, a professor from the @UW's Department of Anthropology, who charged, in her new essay, "Unsettling @SpongeBob and the Legacies of Violence on Bikini Bottom", that the little yellow sponge is nothing more than a "violent", "racist" colonizer.
Yes, in this new essay, you can read all about how SpongeBob has long plotted to exterminate all of Bikini Bottom using a substance which releases that oh-so-deadly chemical called fun, to which he has devoted a song that he sings every so often:
The essay makes practically no sense to anyone who has viewed the twenty-year-old @Nickelodeon mega-hit for any period of time. What's next, an essay on how that furry red @Elmo monster is the masochistic, ruthless dictator of a land in Eastern Europe? muse.jhu.edu/article/734722…
RED LIGHT to @BenShapiro. The right-wing commentator did more to call for massive gun violence in his recent commentary on LGBTQ "indoctrination" in schools than @CNN did in its commentary on the @JokerMovie.
I'm sure quite a few of that picture's fans have commented on how @CNN was encouraging people to shoot at random audience members during screenings of it, but Mr. Shapiro's advocacy, as shown by the clip below, was much more blatant.
That doesn't mean the Most Trusted Name in News isn't getting a RED LIGHT either. It is . . . for the way it handled a speech given by Democratic presidential candidate @BernieSanders after his recovery from a heart attack.
It would appear that @CNN hired somebody to go to a video editor and play around with the saturation on the clip of him talking to make it appear less healthy than he does in other sources (yes, even @MSNBC). (Photo credit: @ReclaimNet)
The devout hatred @CNN has toward @SenSanders, exemplified in that comparison, tells you a lot about how mythical its being a "Leftist propaganda channel" truly is.
GREEN LIGHT to the Bern for his release of a plan which would eliminate ALL corruption from every sector in which it is to be found, replace the FEC with an FEA (Federal Elections Administrations) and overturn the ruling (Buckley vs. Valeo) that allowed for money in politics.
This is great news for everyone who is sick of politicians too rich to help the people who elected them.
Finally, a RED LIGHT to @EmergencyPony. I am sorry to announce that his denunciation of his least favorite #MyLittlePony: #FriendshipisMagic writers in a thread designed to thank the staff of the series was not a fluke.
This man, who is supposed to be a reliable source of screenshots from the show on @Twitter, posted images of trash compactors, garbage trucks, and even a site designed to help a person create his or her own pony OCs . . .
. . . images that were tucked under the titles "The Ending of the End - Part 1", "The Ending of the End - Part 2" and "The Last Problem." Notice a pattern here? This might remind those of you doing VHS/DVD/Blu-Ray extracts on @YouTube and other sites . . .
. . . of those "prank openings" some people did to shows and movies they despise. They were not funny then or now, and these tweets are not funny now that #FriendshipIsMagic's nearly-decade-long run has come to an end.
A guy who runs an account designed to upload screenshots of that show should know better than to rip people off in the way he did in those three tweets of the show's last three episodes.
