So will TMNT soon be "culturally cancelled"?

With child restrictions on Disney's "Dumbo" and "Peter Pan" and "The Aristocrats", Looney Tunes' Pepe Le Pew being cancelled as well as Speedy Gonzales, 6 Dr. Seuss children books no longer being published, and in summer 2020 temporarily pausing the cartoon "Paw Patrol" because of George Floyd...

Is it just a matter of time before TMNT (in any universe) is eventually restricted or have trigger warnings?
Due to some believing:
  • The American turtles culturally appropriating Japanese martial arts?
  • Master Splinter perpetuating Asian stereotypes (as the Mark Dice clip below speculates at 2:31)?
  • Having April not being able to fight as proficiently as the Turtles is continuing the cultural misogyny through the damsel-in-distress trope?

See at 2:31:


Welcome to the cultural progression of 2021.
