I do apologize if this has been posted somewhere else, (I did do a quick check to make sure, sorry if I missed it).
To sum up, a UI professor is concerned that images of Herky show him as too aggressive and mean and she thinks that it would be better for the collective consciousness of the community if Herky was depicted as having a broader range of emotions because then we wouldn't have so much violence in society and our college freshmen wouldn't be so eager to become rapists. Or something.
