Stymie form our gang little rascals was a token black kid long ago a part of our gang and one of the key members of the Little Rascals forties era classic short films. By the eighties Stymie was a nasty old man able to only get bit acting television parts on programs such as Sanford and Son and Taxi and in fact I think he auditioned for the role of Fred Sanford only to be beaten out by Red Foxx himself. Styme appeared in Jim Ignatowski Taxi season's five freedom dividend where the Uber wealthy Jim Igantowski ca driver gave some of his inherited money to his friends at the Sunshine a company to give out and feel better and this money distribution method has been taken up b current presidential candidates running in the 2020 Democratic primary.
Make no mistake Stymie in 1981 was transphobic as Tony Bantu delivered an expensive ollr television as a gift to this friend of his form Tony's boxing gym and the television addicted Stymie recalled some Gilligan Island episode where Gilligan dressed up in women clothes and this appalled Stymie who said he turns off and refused to watch that episode whenever it came on on reruns.
Stymie's transphobiaism ruins this episode and the topic of every person being given a gift dividend is something that presidential candidate Andrew Yang should consider in addition to the 1000 dollar a month dividend he speaks about in his attempt to win the Democratic primary. Tony unwrapped the present provided by the inherit wealthy Jim Ignatowski in this episode and it made life easier for this character as he was one of the last people in America that had yet to purchase a color television and this old black mans life was made more easier and enjoyable now that he had a color television to watch for fourteen hours a day thanks to the taxi driver known as Tony Banta. This was a great episode of Taxi.
