It is common for entertainment for children to include subtle, mature themes. Often, the themes are innocent, tongue-in-cheek, and appeal to parents.

But what if the adult themes include a dark, perhaps even Satanic message?

This will take a while to explain…

There is a show called “Donkey Hodie” on PBS. Its audience is pre-kindergarteners.

The lead character is a puppet named Donkey Hodie. He has a friend named “Purple Panda”.

Donkey Hodie is a innocent play on words with Don Quixote, which exemplifies my first point.

(2/~30)

The PBS show is produced by a group affiliated with “Mr. Rogers” (the polar opposite of anything resembling satanic).

Show sponsors are listed and include the Heinz Family Foundation, the Richard King Mellon Foundation, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

(3/~30)

There are two shows in each episode.

The show that struck me as “odd” is titled “Panda Panda”. It is only about 12 minutes long.

You can find the show at this link:
pbskids.org/donkeyhodie/vi…

A third character (a puppet cow) has invented an “add one machine”, which is shown to the left of the puppet cow in this image.

(5/~30)

When two balls pass through the “add one machine” (from right to left), a third ball appears within the plane formed by the machine.

It makes sense of you are teaching kids how to count, right?

(6/~30)

So… while Donkey Hodie and Purple Panda are playing, Purple Panda happens to walk through the “add one machine” and is cloned. So now there are 2 Purple Pandas. (The cow has gone somewhere else.)

At first, Donkey Hodie is delighted- it seems like twice the fun.

(7/~30)

Then they decide to try it again, and a third Purple Panda appears. Even more fun.

But adults in the audience now see the parallels to the Sorcerer’s Apprentice and can anticipate what’s coming.

Sort of…

(8/~30)

The process repeats, and eventually Donkey Hodie breaks into the song “Too Many Pandas”.

Both Donkey Hodie and the original Purple Panda want things to go back to just the two of them. And get rid of the “new” Purple Pandas.

But how?
Here is where things get weird.

(9/~30)

Donkey Hodie decides to “slow down” his thinking and take a close look at the “add one machine.” He even states that he has not yet done so.

Let’s do the same, remembering that there are “too many Pandas”. First, look closely at the markings on the purple ring.

(10/~30)

Look closely and you will see a pattern of crooked lines on the “add one machine”. (The intermittent circles light up when the machine is activated)

Keep in mind that Donkey Hodie’s goal now is to eliminate the “new Purple Pandas” because there are “too many pandas.”🤔

(11/~30)

To me, the crooked lines surrounding a central region suggests the “Black Sun” image below, a symbol said to be linked to occult and Nazi beliefs.

Ok-sometimes crooked lines are just crooked lines.

But remember, there are “too many pandas.” 🤔

So what happens next?

(12/~30)

Donkey Hodie notices a yellow button on the “add one machine”, which has what appears to be a metal placard with very strange looking symbols below the button.

(13/~30)

Upon seeing the very strange symbols, Donkey Hodie proclaims, “Hey, what’s that? It says ‘undo’!”

And then Donkey Hodie presses the yellow button…

(14/~30)

Then, Donkey Hodie has all of the (“too many”) pandas march through the very curiously marked “add one machine”.

Lo and behold, all of the “too many”pandas are eliminated, except the original Purple Panda.

Where did they go? Who knows…
(15/~30)

A little earlier, Donkey Hodie had stated his object lesson for the show: “I’m going to take this problem nice and slow…”

Hmmm… what say we take a closer look at that “Undo” button.

(16/~30)

Donkey Hodie proclaimed that the plaque says “undo.”

Why wouldn’t a children’s show sumply list the word “undo” on the plaque?

Isn’t one goal of the show to introduce words to kids learning how to read?

And… what exactly does this say?

(17/~30)

Are these symbols from a literary reference? Perhaps Lord of the Rings or Dante’s Inferno includes symbols like this?

Or is it something else?
I do not know, but I am very curious.

And I have another thought…

(18/~30)

Are these symbols a Malthusian reference? Are the people of the world the “too many” pandas?

Does the episode convey that the Nazis moved “too fast” with gas chambers and that by “going slowly”, they would achieve their goals of population control and ethnic cleansing?

(19/30)

I will end the thread here. I welcome any innocent explanation.

But I refuse to ignore the fact that PBS has consistently promoted mRNA vaccines at the behest of its sponsors, which include many “philanthropic organizations”. 🤔😡

Fini.

I will now provide a solution for the riddle of the meaning of the plaque, of which the Donkey Hodie character said:

“Hey, what’s that? It says ‘undo.’ I never would have noticed this going fast. So if I push this ‘undo’ button, it might get is back to one panda.”

One responder noted that the circles, when rotated clockwise 90 degrees, resemble the pattern of the buttons. And the line through the top yellow button may mean that it is pressed.

I agree.

Now- let’s rotate the symbols to the left of the circles by 90 deg CW.

Start with the symbol indicated by the red arrow that (unrotated) resembles the number “3”.

When rotated 90 deg CW, it looks like the Greek letter Omega to me.

Now let’s treat the next entity as two symbols- one that looks like a “c” and one that resembles “sigma.”

When rotated 90 deg CW, they look like a tilted “n” and a “script a”.

The form of the Greek letter “alpha” with which I am familiar looks different, but there is at least one example of a sculpture with both the “script a” and omega together.

So I feel justified in describing the “script a” as “alpha.”

And the “tilted n” character might be seen as a “U-turn symbol”.

This observation depends on whether or not one sees a small arrowhead at the tip of the right prong. For now, let’s assume it is present.

It is still a bit tilted, but it is close.

Now let’s look at the three symbols together.

But should we read them left-to-right? Or right-to-left?

The Greek form Boustrophedon alternates lines L-R and then R-L. So it is essential to know for solving the riddle.

We get a clue from the leftmost symbol on the plaque…

When the symbol indicated by the arrow is rotated 90 deg CW, to me it looks like a circular face with two eyes (now horizontal) and a line from the face to the other symbols.

I look at the face first, and the line draws my attention from left-to-right.
So let’s read L-R….

Read left-to-right, the 3 symbols symbols arranged may be interpreted as:

“From Omega, return to Alpha.”

In other words, “It says ‘undo’…” just as Donkey Hodie proclaimed.

So there you have it. One part of the riddle is solved.

But… what about the other symbols?

Let’s group the arc shape indicated by the arrow with the circles as they are rotated 90 degrees CW

The result is that one might interpret the arc as a barrier which has been rotated out of the way.

In other words, the path been cleared for the rightmost symbol…

Consider all symbols laid out using the recipe I provided.

I shifted the leftmost symbol down since it only gives the direction to read (L-R).

I leave the rightmost symbol unrotated as it is outside the (now removed) barrier.

Take a close look at that symbol.
What do you see?

Before I give my interpretation of the last symbol (pictured), I want to say a little bit more about the 12-minute long show “Panda Panda” which can be found in the link (along with other episodes).

pbskids.org/donkeyhodie/vi…

PBS shows like Mr. Rogers and Sesame Street encouraged emotional development in children.

When Donkey Hodie ended up with more Purple Panda friends than expected, the show could have focused on the:

1. Importance of sharing
2. Helping “extra” pandas to get home (like ET)

DH also could have sought the inventor of the “add one machine” to ask for help. But no.

Instead of developing positive themes, DH grew frustrated and repeated that all those pandas were “tiring and overwhelming.”

I wonder what young identical twins think while watching it.
🤔

The focus is only on how to “undo” the creation of “extra pandas” because there are “too many pandas.”

The feelings of the extra pandas are *never* contemplated by the main characters.

And… the button pressed is yellow, usually conveying “be careful of your actions”.

The theme that the extra pandas, as happy and playful as the main characters, are simply a nuisance to be rid of led me to think that last character could be interpreted as having a sinister meaning.

Recall, the barrier to the symbol was removed by pressing the “undo” button.

If you look closely, you’ll see a cross with something like an “omega” mounted on top. But the “omega” has some thickness and fine features in its prongs, implying thickness.

As with art, there are many possible interpretations. But here is mine…

The prongs resemble horns of a bull.

The plain symbol (left) looks like a cross topped with an image of the horns of Molech (a.k.a. Moloch) as shown (right).

I see a striking similarity.

The positioning of horns atop the cross suggests a victory by Molech over Christianity.

A statue of Molech was placed at the entrance to the Roman Colosseum in Nov. 2019.

“This isn’t just some random ancient deity. In Leviticus 18:21, the people of Israel are specifically warned against sacrificing their children to this monstrous idol…”

thewashingtonstandard.com/rome-giant-sta…

“In Jeremiah 32:35, we are told [that the people of Israel]:

‘…built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech…’”

The linked article notes other “exhibitions” of symbols from ‘ancient pagan religions… in key locations all over the globe.’

Would it really be surprising to see Molech (or Baal) represented, albeit cryptically, in video form? I think not.

Part of the worship of Molech was “to pass children through fire.” Many burned to death.

Now revisit the image of the childlike Purple Pandas walking through the “add one machine” after the “undo button” was pressed.

Looks like passing thru fire to me. Eerie, don’t you think?

This linked article “The Tragic History of Molech Child Sacrifice” describes details of the history of the practice.

chabad.org/parshah/articl…

“This was a form of idolatry, named Molech, and this was the manner of its worship, that one would hand over one’s child to the pagan priests, who would make two huge fires. The child was then passed through on foot between these two fires.”

Did the child always die? Some did but some sources say others survived.

The original Purple Panda carefully stepped through the “add one machine”… and survived.

The “extra” pandas simply disappeared.

“Why would anyone in his right mind find such a service attractive for his own children?

Maimonides tells us that the conniving priests of Molech convinced people that whoever did not have their children participate in this ritual would witness the death of their children…”
🤔

“Thus, people felt that by appeasing the Molech god they would secure their child’s future.”

Can anybody think of a similar situation in the world today?

Think really hard.

And think about the goals of some of the “philanthropic organizations” which support PBS.

🤔

The suggestion that Molech (or more broadly, Satan) should prevail over Christianity may shock many, but it is not a new.l idea.

It was famously expressed by Dostoyevsky’s Grand Inquisitor in The Brothers Karamazov.

In Karamazov Brother Ivan’s dream, the Grand Inquisitor “claims it as a merit for himself and his church that at last they have vanquished freedom and have done so to make men happy.”

Sound familiar? 🤔

The Grand Inquisitor chided Christ (arisen in the dream and promptly arrested by the Inquisitor) for failing to choose ‘turning stones into bread’ when Satan offered.

“Choosing ‘bread’ would have satisfied the universal and eternal longing of man… to find somebody to worship.”

“So long as man remains free, he strives for nothing so incessantly and painfully as to find someone to worship.

But man seeks to worship what is established beyond dispute, so that all men would agree to worship it…”

“For these pitiful creatures are concerned not only to find something that all would believe in and worship. What is essential is that they all may be *together* in it.”

🤔

He does make a fair point: “We’re all in this together” is surely an effective way to coerce behavior.

Grand Inquisitor to Christ: “Thou hast rejected it (Satan’s offer) for the sake of freedom and the bread of heaven… I tell Thee that man is tormented by no greater fear than to find someone quickly to hand over that gift of freedom with which he is born.”

🤔

For evidence that the symbols in “Panda Panda” reference Christ, consider His words in the Book of Revelation 22:13:

“I am the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.”

Familiar… but opposite to the riddle.

If one vertically flips the n-shaped symbol (now assuming no arrowhead), we get the mathematical set symbol for “union” which can be interpeted as “and”.

Rearranging, we get the “Alpha and Omega” of Christ

The opposite of:

“Omega return to Alpha” of Molech

I’ll wrap up the thread with this thought:

I doubt that the majority of those who wish to trade my freedom for their happiness believe in Satan any more than they believe in God.

But the actions “they” are taking against children are commensurate with Molech worshippers.

Fini.
