There was also other contemporary issues like immigration and job security. Racism as a cause of the immigration of Neanderthals, etc.

I vaguely remember the Flintstones cartoon (or maybe the Jetsons?) having an episode that addressed racism/tolerance as well. Something about "new neighbors moving in" and finding common ground.

Just googled them, and maybe? It's been a while. I remember there being a scene where they were upset about their new neighbors' loud music.
