>Prior to the start of Oedipus Rex, Oedipus has become the king of Thebes while unwittingly fulfilling a prophecy that he would kill his father, Laius (the previous king), and marry his mother, Jocasta (whom Oedipus took as his queen after solving the riddle of the Sphinx). The action of Sophocles's play concerns Oedipus's search for the murderer of Laius in order to end a plague ravaging Thebes, unaware that the killer he is looking for is none other than himself. At the end of the play, after the truth finally comes to light, Jocasta hangs herself while Oedipus, horrified at his patricide and incest, proceeds to gouge out his own eyes in despair.
oedipus rex is an incest story?
Probably.
I spend most of my time watching cartoons & reading comics, how much more culture can I get?
Oedipus Rex killed his dad and married his mom
You could spend five fucking seconds in Google instead of killing a thread, for one thing.
who the fuck names a pharmacy oedipus?
to worldplay it with the Rx symbol
Would've been funnier without the second line.
Over explaining the joke is NuSimpsons' thing.
Why is the industry pushing to incest as the norm?
Excuse the typo
>Why is the industry pushing incest as the norm?
Inbeeding and outbreeding create birth defects, many of which eventually result in sterility. It's the same reason transsexuality and homosexuality are pushed so much in developed countries. The idea is to reduce the population, usually using environmentalism as the excuse, but the countries that pollute the most and have the highest birth rates are ignored for the freest countries, which are bombarded with the propaganda and migrants from non-democratic, highly authoritarian countries, expecting they'll vote for more of what they're familiar with when they arrive.
The main goal is to make sure either nobody is fucking, or the people who are fucking either end up never having children or are heavily dependent on the state to take care of them because they're so unhealthy. Most people behind the propaganda have either of two goals in mind: smaller populations that are easier to micromanage in an authoritarian dystopia, or the genocide of the entire human race.
it's a joke you special special individual
"Oedipus complex" also refers to wanting to fuck ur mom
Doesn't change the fact that incest, even as a joke is rapidly becoming common in media.

He's right tho family guy alone is making more incest scenes than every cartoon combined from 20 years ago, and unlike classic joke scenes that used to portray it as mental ilness or inbreed mutant factory Seth shows "jokes" portray incest in a rather neutral to positive light.
Sort of. He got bamboozled by that fucking fume huffer at Delphes.
ok
Seth McFarlane shows are still considered bottom of the barrel culture, just because you have spent your life watching it doesn’t make it well regarded or common.
most based post on this board right now
Flags, boobs, Starbucks, Mickey D’s, guns, patriotism, eagles. Where are you from, might I ask?
Yes, a story from 429 BC is evidence that incest has only recently become common in entertainment.
family guy makes jokes over whatever is controversial and will offend most people
