For me it's Dragon Ball Z, that was a pretty fucked up show tbh.

Like holy shit, all the characters are terrible people except maybe Gohan and Trunks.

I was too young to watch the G1 Transformers cartoon (although I did have Transformers toys and comics), but it had a Gaddafi expy called Abdul Fakkadi (back when Libya was Amerikkkan non-Soviet boogeyman #1) who ruled a country called Carbombya.
