Be ready to add another children’s show to the list of classics ruined by woke ideology.
Mystery Incorporated character Velma Dinkley has finally been depicted as gay in the latest animated movie, Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo!
Clips from the newly released film started making the rounds on Twitter, with one particularly viral moment showing Velma’s first encounter with costume designer Coco Diablo. The 13-second video below sees the bespectacled detective getting stopped in her tracks at the sight of Coco, who she instantly swoons over as her glasses fog up.
As Velma stares at Diablo, words on screen such as “amazing turtleneck,” “incredible glasses,” “obviously brilliant” and “likes animals.” Additionally, Velma’s cheeks get flushed and her glasses fog up.

In 2020 the director of Scooby Doo, James Gun, revealed he wanted to make the favorite fan gay but was shot down.
“I tried! In 2001 Velma was explicitly gay in my initial script. But the studio just kept watering it down & watering it down, becoming ambiguous, then nothing & finally having a boyfriend (the sequel),” Gun tweeted.
Gunn even answered a fan stating that Velma’s character was written as a gay woman, and he could see the movie’s deleted scenes as proof.
Many who have bought into the LGBTQ+ ideology are praising the official “coming-out” of the famed children’s character.
Hayley Kiyoko who played Velma in the live-action movies “Scooby-Doo!: The Mystery Begins” and “Scooby-Doo! Curse of the Lake Monster,” tweeted, “I remember booking Velma in 2008. It was my first big role in a movie. I also remember thinking ‘I wonder if they know they hired a lesbian as Velma’ here we are, 14 years later……😂 love you all so much.”
On the other hand, Conservative talk show host Steven Crowder blasted the sexualization of the traditionally mild-mannered character.
On his show “Louder with Crowder” he asked, “If we’re going to b**** about appropriation, why do you need to take a straight character and make her lesbian? Just go make your own.” He explains that there are already two to three times more LGBTQ+ people represented in U.S. television shows than what actually exists in the culture so underrepresentation is not an issue.
