Dino PC topia
ABC TV Network | May 12, 2002 | ABC TV

Just tuned into watch "Dinotopia" on ABC tv. Within the first half hour I learned that on the island of "Dinotopia"

* No weapons are allowed -- "Rule 3" of the island is that no weapons are allowed for any purpose not even for self-defense.

* Every person on Dinotopia is a vegetarian (this after one of the stranded kids asks to eat a steak, a burger or some chicken).

Well, I saw enough. PC values and ideology promoted at every step of the way.

At 9 I'll watch the X-Files instead.

Did you happen to catch that despite the "equality" that humans were in charge and that Dinosaurs were mostly beasts of burden?

I guess some are more equal then others.

Sort of, but I gave up on the show about a half hour into it. Too PC for my tastes.

OTOH, I expect that the "conspiracy theorist" David Icke is having a field day with this program (he believes that reptilians that are intelligent and sentient rule the Earth, and that they are "shape-shifters" who include amongst their ranks the Queen of England! (Really, that's what he really says!) At least Larouche only accused the Queen of being a drug dealer.)
