Donald Duck says the N-word/Dresses as a Nazi


I have posted a video above of a clip from Who Framed Roger Rabbit, a Disney classic in which characters from different Disney shows and movies finally get to interact. This was a fun movie for people because a lot of their favorite characters were in one movie, it is an action filled detective story and of course that inevitable love story, but that is not the main point here! The main point is one of Disney’s most famous characters is wearing a Nazi uniform and saying the N-Word.
Donald has always been a very fiery character; his random outburst of anger is what makes the audience laugh. But how far is too far? When a Disney character starts saying derogatory words, that’s usually a sign that it’s gone too far. This kind of language and behavior from Donald Duck is encouraging racism and violence with the swastika and N-Word displayed. What Disney is saying by doing this sort of thing is, “It’s no big deal to be mean to people and say offensive words,” and it’s not. Children look up to and follow Disney characters.
When children hear things like what Donald Duck said, it makes them think that it is okay to say that. If you’ve ever been around a toddler you know they REPEAT EVERYTHING. Children mock what they see and hear, especially when it comes to something that they admire and always want to watch i.e. Disney shows. This kind of language can even then be taken to school with the child, and because they think it is alright to say such things, they may use that type of language with their friends and hurt someone’s feelings, or even become suspended. Disney is setting a bad example with the subliminal messages that they put in their movies and shows. It is supposed to be about the children and providing good, influential, PG entertainment.
Disney is suppose to be a teacher and example setter for its audience, but it seems that Disney is not so concerned about the well being of their young audience. If Disney were concerned, there wouldn’t be so many subliminal messages in their material, especially racist and sexual ones. Of course this is not the first time that Disney has used Nazi material in their films, “Wayward Canary,” also had a swastika displayed in it.
This has gone absolutely too far! There is no reason for Disney to still be up and running with all of the horrible things that they have allowed in their films. It’s a definite problem when you can point out more than one racist or sexual thing in films that are geared towards children. This needs to stop, and it is ultimately up to the parents; who are the consumers of Disney products. How can you allow an obviously perverted and racist company to continue to exist without any consequences? Your children are involved, and they learn from what they see, and Disney is showing them how to a hateful person.

Oh How Sexual The Little Mermaid is!

The Little Mermaid is a classic Disney tale about a young Mermaid names Ariel. Ariel defies her father King Triton and goes to the top of the water to see humans; she discovers Prince Eric who becomes her love interest and eventually they live happily ever after.
Beautiful right?
Well what some people don't know is that there are some very vividly sexual things in The Little Mermaid. The original Little Mermaid, yes the VHS for those of you who were born after 1997, has been some very a penis on the box. The penis on The Little Mermaid box is apart of King Triton's castle, and is very noticeable.

So again Disney is "slips" up. This absolutely on purpose, because there is no way for a company that is so precise in everything that they do to keep having accidental sexual messages in their works. Disney World workers attend a 9am-5pm course for several days before starting work and there is a book of what everyone should look like in order to male the guest feel comfortable. It is so bold for the Disney animators to put a penis on the COVER of the movie, and it's in a way disrespectful, because when people think of movies to take their children to see they think Disney, because of the great stories and the quality of the movies and shows.

Saying that this type of "carelessness" is going to be Disney's downfall is impossible because has been going strong for a really longtime, and they show no sign of slowing down.

Because Disney is not being punished for such crude behavior; they can continue to put sexual messages in their movies for what ever reason they do.
What does this say about the parents? (that's a whole other subject) My point is Disney is still being supported even after its' continuous "lack of observation."
Unfortunately the penis on the cover is not the only sexual innuendo in The Little Mermaid. In the scene when Ariel (secretly Ursala) and Prince Eric are about to get married the priest has a boner. Apparently some say that this is the Priests knee, but it is so obvious that the priest has a boner on this scene.It is also really disgusting and perverted to put this in a children's film. Even of it is a knee; the fact that it can so easily be mistaken for an erection is so distasteful on Disney's part.

Nazi Hyenas from the Lion King


The Lion King is arguably one of the most famous Disney movies ever! The Lion King is about a prince cub named Simba. Mufasa, Simba's father tells him that when he dies his son Simba must take over the thrown, because it is his duty and he would be the rightful king. Scar, Simba's father kills Mufasa. We learn that Scar is going to kill his brother Mufasa in his big song "Be Prepared." This is a song about Mufasa dying, and Scar becoming the King over Pride Rock. In this scene Scars companions are not Lions, but Hyenas, which are known for being very aggressive animals. The Hyenas are at the bottom of the cave, not marching, but goose-stepping! For those of you who do not know what goose-stepping is; it is a march that Nazi soldiers were known for.
A Nazi is the member of the National Socialist German Workers Party; they were under the rule of Hitler. Remember him? Yea that’s the jerk that was responsible for killing of 6,000,000 Jews (1.5 Million of them being Children). Disney put Hyenas goose-stepping in their most famous Disney movie. There is also a line in this scene where Scar says “Stick with me and you’ll never go hungry again,” this is seriously the same way Hitler came to power! He promised the German people, who were suffering after WWI, that they would have better lives if they brought him to power. Honestly you have to be blind to not see the similarities.
It was rumored that Walt Disney, himself was a fascist, and he was even called upon the House of Unamerican Activities Party, but only as a witness. Although it was never actually proven true that Disney was a fascist, it is still very arguable. Goose-Stepping is not the only thing that Disney has done to make people think that a lot of Disney is based on fascist views. In the 1932 version of the “Wayward Canary” there is a lighter with a swastika on it. I have posted the video at the bottom; it is 3:31 into the video.  
Disney is putting Nazi representations in their movies and shows, and so it can definitely be argued that Disney is in fact encouraging Nazism by displaying it to the younger generations. This is absolutely appalling because it symbolizes violence and hate. Disney didn’t even try to hide these subliminal messages, and yet people are still so willing to allow Disney to persuade them that they have the best interest in mind when it comes to their children.

Disney Sells Sex


Sex Sells with Disney

Disney movies have had controversial issues for over 75 years, either intentionally or unintentionally displaying sexual content in their movies. The fact that it has been going on so long definitely displays that sex sells. So for decades Disney has been corrupting the minds of children and influencing teenagers with their movies for years.
The movie that is being reviewed is Disney’s The Rescuers. When this movie came out it was an exciting action filled film that pleased it’s family audience.

Disney's The Rescuers is a cute little movie about mice who rescue a little girl from the evil pawn shop owner Madame Medusa and her side kick Mr. Snoops, but what many people did not expect from this nice Disney movie is the pornographic image in the background. Most subliminal messages in Disney movies are word images and may be questionable, but this is a picture and it is obviously a naked woman! There was nothing accidental about this photo, because it is a real life photo in an animated film. So that means that picture was deliberately chosen to put in this film by whomever. What does that say about Disney? Is publicity that important to them that they are willing to corrupt the minds of their young audiences?

Disney released a statement soon after, saying that the images were not put in by their animators, but by an outside post-production company.
Disney is one of the most powerful production companies in the WORLD! So why would they use outside production companies to finish their work, especially with how exclusive they are. Disney is a very strict company when it comes to their image, many of my friends have worked for Disney, and even the parks maintain a strict code of conduct and appearance. Actors are not allowed to travel outside of their certain areas in while in costume at Disney World and the employees are also not allowed to be seen leaving Disney World, but are required to take underground passage ways.

A company that is this strict and pays so much attention to detail would not let something as vulgar as this slip through the cracks if it wasn’t intentionally done. So why do these “mistakes” keep happening? We don’t exactly know why, but a few guesses are either for publicity or because Disney is filled with perverts!

Disney gets Dirty!


This wonderful YouTube video was put up by crackerjackcoop. The scenes in this video are from the original Disney movies before they were edited, so if you still have some of your VHS' as I do, KEEP THEM so you can go back and take another look.

Now clearly we can see the messages in these clips. So let's start with The Little Mermaid shall we?

The Little Mermaid:
The priest who is marrying Ursala ( pretending to be Arial btw) has a boner ladies and gentlemen. Now this is wrong on so many levels! I wouldn't particularly call myself a religious person, but PRIEST with a boner?! Come on, not to mention it's a children's film! Personally I don't mind a little hanky panky business going on in my films, but the fact that the animators and editors kept this in the original film is absolutely ridiculous. Some argue that it is just the priest's knee that is poking out, but let's be honest the first thing that came to my mind and probably everyone else's was PENIS! 


Speaking of penis let's move on to the cover of The Little Mermaid. When looking at the cover of The Little Mermaid you see Ariel, Prince Eric, King Triton and Ursala, but wait look a little closer and you'll see that the palace has a phallus! Yes in the background there is a penis. This "mistake" somehow got past the artist and the editors? 


The Lion King:
Arguably one of Disney's best movies The Lion King has a nice little message for it's audience too! When the lead character Simba is faced with deciding whether or not he should go back to Pride Rock, he distressingly plops down into some pollen ( I guess Lions aren't allergic) which rises into the sky. The Pollen, which not many people seem to notice spell out the word sex in the sky. Yes, and just in case you don't think you read the bold letters right here it is again---> The Pollen, which not many people seem to notice spell out the word sex in the sky. Now I know most three year olds know all about sex, but what about the adults, is Disney just not thinking about them?! Another "mistake" that slipped through the cracks. Go editors down at Disney, you really know how to make a PG movie!


Alladin:
Alladin is a great action movie for children and even displays a strong and sassy female lead, Jasmine. However, supposedly it is heard that in the movie when Alladin is giving a speech, genie and the carpet are arguing and the sand monster arrives someone says, "Good Teenagers Take Off Your Clothes." This is a little hard to prove because it is not visual. Some people hear it and some people don't. Go back and see if you can hear it, this is a hard one to argue.
