* ''Primos'', an upcoming Creator/DisneyChannel show has attracted a lot of controversy from Mexican people over its use of Mexican stereotypes despite that the creator Natasha Kline grew up in a Mexican-American multicultural family.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Velma}}'' is clearly intended for a ''very'' left-leaning audience, with the diverse recasting on display and the titular character's near-constant preaching of far-left sentiments, but ended up largely turning off left-wing viewers by depicting them in a ''very'' negative light. The titular character is essentially the worst possible stereotype of a leftie imaginable, being a nauseatingly bigoted, sexist, racist, stupid, and ignorant person who ends up [[TheHorseshoeEffect acting no different than the people she is against]], which received ''genuine'' accusations that the show was actually black propaganda[[note]]Propaganda made by opponents of a group, but disguised as propaganda made ''by'' that group, in order to discredit them[[/note]] meant to discredit the left. It certainly didn't help that the show has a weirdly flippant attitude toward things like political correctness and the [=#MeToo=] movement, embraces negative racial and gender stereotypes, or that Fred, the series' token straight white male conservative [[HateSink punching-bag]], ended up being [[UnintentionallySympathetic the most sympathetic out of the cast]] of [[WorldOfJerkAss absolute assholes]].

* ''Film/TheKingsSpeech'' was written by a stutterer, just like its title character. While many stutterers lauded it for giving much-needed exposition to the worst side of their condition, others felt the film still falls in several harmful myths about it, such as that it is caused by childhood trauma, that emotional catharsis is needed to overcome it, or that the whole condition basically vanishes if you use the right method.

* Caitlyn Jenner is a very contentious figure in LGBT community because she identifies as a Republican, a party known for its homophobia and transphobia.
* [[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025 Project 2025]], a plan to turn the US Government into an authoritarian state in the case of a Republican president winning got criticized by several Republicans and Conservatives who decried it as immoral and unconstitutional. With some even calling it an affront to God.

* Many critics of ''Manga/{{Sekirei}}'' accuse the series of being sexist, with its extreme {{fanservice}} and {{ditz}}y female characters. The writer, Sakurako Gokurakuin, is a woman.

* ''Literature/TheSatanicVerses'' by the Indian-born author Creator/SalmanRushdie caused such widespread protests in his birth country that the Indian government banned the book within a month of publication, despite Rushdie being outspokenly proud of his country and culture ([[MyCountryTisOfTheeThatISting while nevertheless critical of it]]). The book also became infamous in no small part because it offended the Muslim world so much that Ruhollah Khomeini, the religious leader of Iran at the time it came out, issued a fatwa against him forcing Rushdie to live under police protection for years and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stabbing_of_Salman_Rushdie surviving an assassination attempt in 2022 which left him seriously injured]]. The latter however, while sometimes reported as it, is not an example of this, as while Rushdie is from a Muslim family, he had been an atheist for many years when he wrote ''The Satanic Verses'' and remains one afterwards.

* ''My Ex-Boyfriend the Space Tyrant'' features a young, openly gay {{Twink}} in a barely-there shirt and booty shorts as its protagonist, most of the men are equally as buff and scantily clad, their spaceship has bright pink everywhere, and the doors are phallic-shaped. The developer himself is gay, but it didn't stop WebVideo/SteamTrain fans, some of them gay men themselves, from either getting offended or rolling their eyes when Danny, Arin, and Ross decided to play it on the show.

* ''VideoGame/NineteenFortyTwo'' and ''1943'' feature American pilots out to defeat Japanese forces...and were produced by Japanese's developer Creator/{{Capcom}}. The latter, which uses the names of real-world UsefulNotes/WorldWarII-era Imperial Japanese Navy battleships, had to have said battleships renamed for the Famicom port.
