Early Simpsons was still stuck in SJW's ville in a few ways.

Males are stupid and wrong. Females are smart and right.
People barely notice race, if at all. (See, everybody is equal on TV. Just like they should be in real life Goyim.)
Gays are wacky, silly and fun! (What about all the disease spreading, anus rupturing, hyper promiscuous and pedos? Why not a gay criminal or 10? Trying to push a message of tolerance?)
Corporations are run by white males who are super evil.

It was still a great satire of trashy as well as uptight culture, but it was opening the door to a lot of later shows that went ever further with Cultural Marxism.

Consider what would have happened if Mr. Smithers had joked with an anonymous gay male "You only get sick once you start going to the doctor." The Simpsons would have been shut down over night and never have been the cultural event that it was. You can only be funny in a certain direction. You can not be funny about a (((protected))) group without permission.

Where is the comedy show that portrays a bunch of Richie Rich Kike bosses manipulating the Goyim for profit? That is why you have to put on the decoder glasses, even for fun shows like the early Simpsons.
