The muppet friendly society is something that developed during the late 1990's and early 2000's, whereby everything is explained in a play school like fashion, everything in such a society is safe and designed for low intelligence people so that even they cannot get it wrong or will not make them feel thick, even things that are obvious and self explanatory require detailed instructions with words AND pictures. Some people may know all of this as 'dumbing down' but I think that this term is more appropriate.
Britain, The muppet friendly society, where even bus stations have to have notices warning about moving vehicles.
