There’s definitely racial stereotypes; mayor Humdinger, a blonde haired blue eyed white man, spends all of his time trying to to appropriate Adventure Bay’s resources and stake claim to its governance. My dude even seized the means of government over a metropolis and proceeded to speedrun bad governance. The only way they could have leaned harder into the white stereotype is by putting him in socks and sandals and having him remind people that he’s 1/32nd native american and has black friends.

Not that I’m complaining, mind you. Anyway, it’s not exactly like Paw Patrol are bashing fash when they stop Humdinger, they’re just keeping control over Adventure Bay’s resources rather than ceding them to his. It’s Saturday morning nationalism.

So it shows the elected officials as being corrupt to the point of having broken the process, and the answer to the evil mayor is the authoritative police. How often are corporations the bad guys?
