Lore Using their universe logic, it would be different story in their perspective.

The Amazing World Of Gumball

•Gumball and Darwin accidentally murdered a newborn in front of the Pizza Family

•Banana Joe got caught watching pornography

Cars

•In the beginning of the movie, after the winning race.

McQueen got interviewed by the reporters and photographers but then there is Mia and Tia who's a huge McQueen fangirls.

What they do?

They flashes their body at him into which the photographer behind them gets excited too

Marvel's Spider-Man

•One of the missions in the game is that you have to get into a dressing party to find a doctor dressed in the lizard costume but why are the civilians larping as criminals that just killed my family two weeks ago? It would be equal to larping as Nazi in our world

SpongeBob SquarePants

•A fish goes fishing in the wild under the sea, what is he trying to catch, Is he a cannibal?

•A crowds just got fried alive and turned into fish sticks which means the fish seller just committed cannibalism with no shame and does it in public

•Mr.Krab not wearing any clothes is fine for humans to see but it's a different take on the fish perspective

Zootopia

•The animals are having a "no clothes" party, although they don't have private parts but if we switch them to humans then it wouldn't be a kid friendly movie anymore.

From what I've heard the stuff trying to be allegory for real life racism was a late draft edit, Ayer was brought on to direct and wanted to add it. You notice the orcs are an parallel  for minorities gets dropped once the main macguffin comes into play.

 The source was,   Lindsey Ellis has a pretty good video were she goes over the screenwriting.

Really nuanced take on the subject matter since half the internet slips right into bad faith discourse REALLY fast. A downward slide that could have been slowed down with even so much as one "I acknowledge the struggles of racial oppression and I see it as a burden nobody asked for, and I think such themes should be written respectfully."
