No, ‘Sesame Street’ Didn’t Just Introduce an Alt-Right Muppet Named Stan
Introducing Stan, whose hobbies include grooming his Hitler-esque coiffe and moustache… and attacking mainstream media on the internet.
The Funny or Die team says he was created as a “means of introducing children to the alt-right movement at a young age and to let them decide how terrifying it really is.”
Stan’s backstory is that he ran away from his “liberal snowflake” parents and was drawn to Sesame Street because its initials are SS, just like Hitler’s paramilitary organization in Nazi Germany.
“The arc of his first episode features Stan attempting to illustrate to Elmo how Barack Obama is not only a reptilian alien posing as a human, but also a reptilian alien born in Kenya,” FoD teases.
