Comment on Disney sells us imaginary heroes while supporting real world villains.
themurphy@lemmy.ml 2 months agoWhile this is a good narrative to make about Disney if we want to hate on them, it’s not true though.
The Disney movies for kids is almost all about not maintaining status quo and actually challenge it. Or being different than anyone else
Frozen and Moana are recent examples. Pirates of Caribbean for an older audience. There’s many more.

Disney kids movies aren’t about super heroes usually. But even Lion King is how you can’t escape adult responsibilities and have to continue the cycle.

What I see from farmers and the current usa president in my feed, that part was actually damn close to the truth.

That’s true, every movie takes on something different.
But then again there’s Pocahontas that came out at the same time that tackles racism and the importance of nature.
