Talk:Tinky Winky

What purpose does this have? 12:04, 17 January 2009 (EST)
 * I see it pretty clearly as on-mission: A religious zealot trying to use a children's character in order to demonize a particular community as defined by sexual "morality." TheoryOfPractice 12:06, 17 January 2009 (EST)

I thought it was pretty fun, especially concerning "crank" ideas. It is also an example of religious zealotry and evil seeing versus even the most innocent expressions of creativity and an insight into Jerry Falwell's character (who conservapedia calls: "one of the biggest influences on the conservative movement in the late 20th century")

Incidentally, the Teletubbies are these guys: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teletubbies Sen 12:30, 17 January 2009 (EST)


 * I remeber this, but does it stand alone well? Maybe merge with Jerry Falwell? (oh god what a mental image...) Insert Name Here 12:34, 17 January 2009 (EST)
 * I agree, unless it's going to be built into a more detailed article. If it's just this one piece of information, it's better to mention it in the JF article than sit alone as a stub.   12:38, 17 January 2009 (EST)
 * That seems reasonable--unless Sen wants to, um, flesh out his exposé of the Falwell/TinkyWinky controversy...TheoryOfPractice 12:41, 17 January 2009 (EST)
 * Well I was going to add a picture, and later also edit Jerry Falwell's article with some kind of "Trivia" section (but no picture). Also intended to work somewhere there the note that the previous Polish Government also had a stab at poor Tinky Winky's sexual preferences ( http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/6698753.stm ) but other than that, I don't see how exactly this could be fleshed out more.
