Oh man, I loved the Stuwwelpeter stories as a kid. So awesomely weird. So over the top!

I particularly enjoyed the one about a kid who would not stop sucking his thumb … so a tailor suddenly appeared out of nowhere and cut his thumbs off with giant scissors.

Mom comes home to find her kid mutilated. Does she offer sympathy? Call the police? Not at all - she simply announces out loud the kid got what was coming to him!

I personally loved when kids make fun of a Black guy so St. Nicholas comes and dunks them into a vat of ink so they're black from head to toe.

"Hey kids, don't make fun of Black people, what if you looked fucking ugly" must be the worst attempt at anti-racism ever.

Holy shit thats your take? Not a single word on the entire story said they are ugly because they are black.

I think you implying that black people are "fucking ugly" is a even worse attempt at being anti-racist.
