Line 130:
*** Just be glad they [[What Could Have Been|didn't]] choose the polite version. {{spoiler|[[Memetic Mutation|"Desu"]].}}
** [[Walt Disney]] was not outspokenly anti-Semitic, did not ally himself with the Nazis (and [http://antagonie.blogspot.com/2010/11/disney-sundries-film-that-won-war.html may have actually helped win World War II]), and employed Jews on his staff. Granted, his vision of America was steeped in a conservative and strongly Christian light, and according to [[Wikipedia|The Other Wiki]], the rumors of anti-Semitism sprang up due to his membership in a reactionary filmmaker's organization, but there's no evidence that he himself championed anti-Semitic philosophies. And given how nobody seems to care when the show normally tries to humiliate or kill Mort (e.g., [[Sarcasm Mode|everyone's favorite]] [[Dude, Not Funny|Schindler's List joke]]), why would it be a deal-breaker here for an otherwise-perfect universe? Although...there were a couple Walt Disney Productions that leaned on popular ethnic stereotypes of the time, and [[Sarcasm Mode|thankfully, Family Guy has never sunk that low for a laugh.]]
** Don't forget the "we'd be living in the Future right now if Christianity never existed." Uh, time out, here...
*** On the other hand, the Muslims preserved a lot of science and advanced scientifically while Europe didn't, and Muslim knowledge came back to Europe during the Crusades, which was what helped lead them out of the Dark Ages.
** In the "People/Dog role reversal universe", apparently what 'breed' of dog you are is completely random, regardless of the 'breed' of your parents. That would be like the coupling of a white man and black woman giving birth to a Japanese baby.
