Walt has to be rolling over in his cryonic chamber

quote:

Disney grew more politically conservative as he got older. A Democratic Party supporter until the 1940 presidential election, when he switched allegiance to the Republican Party,[101] he became a generous donor to Thomas E. Dewey's 1944 bid for the presidency.[102] In 1946, he was a founding member of the Motion Picture Alliance for the Preservation of American Ideals, an organization who stated they "believ[ed] in, and like, the American Way of Life ... we find ourselves in sharp revolt against a rising tide of Communism, Fascism and kindred beliefs, that seek by subversive means to undermine and change this way of life".[103] In 1947, during the Second Red Scare, Disney testified before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), where he branded Herbert Sorrell, David Hilberman and William Pomerance, former animators and labor union organizers, as communist agitators; Disney stated that the 1941 strike led by them was part of an organized communist effort to gain influence in Hollywood.

I guess the chinese(Siamese)cats are what does it in Aristocats. Kids love that movie though.


Dumbo of course the crows..

Peter Pan? The Indian Men looked odd? I can't think of what it is with that movie??

Hope y'all have VHS versions cause they're going to cancel and/or censor these soon for everyone.

I do. But don’t forget it takes a VHS player (aka DVD player) to view them. Be sure yours is in good repair. New ones getting scarce.

IDK about all of those examples but the Aristocats has some scenes that would definitely be offensive to Asian people.

I saw something similar with Seinfeld and all these limp wristed zoomers were calling it “problematic.”

Because for those kids, anything that falls outside the teachings of social justice and CRT is "problematic".

the original Peter Pan was an absolute stud

literally had tinker bell, Wendy, a cove of mermaids, and the little Pocahontas all drooling for him and he gave them no simp energy at all. All frick you I don't care energy and they all wanted him more for it.

somehow Peter Pan got turned into a faggatry icon

I did something similar and showed it to my 18 year old and 13 year old sons a few weeks ago.

I very rarely discuss politics with them, but I have made a point of telling them how absurd I find the attempt to remove "bad" words for the vocabulary or certain people but not others. As I've told them as they were growing up, there are NO bad words. There are some "adult" words and others that are potentially inappropriate depending on the company you're in. There are even words that depending on how they're said can be hurtful and you ought to be ware of that. But the idea that some words are so magical in their very existence that to even utter the sounds injures those around you is for the fricking birds. I refuse to have the words I can and can't use as an adult determined for me.

So yeah...they loved it. And yes, I could feel when something was said that was objectively funny and they laughed, and then sort of wondered if they could, and then realized WHY I was showing it to them and laughed harder.

We watched Davie Crocket on Disney+ the other night. It had a content warning at the beginning.
