Old Walt must be rolling over in his grave.
The bloodlust of the woke inquisition wasn’t about to be slaked by merely expunging Dr. Seuss and Pepe Le Pew, the cancel cultural fanatics have now taken down Disney classic characters including magical fairy Peter Pan and Dumbo the flying elephant.
The entertainment colossus has removed several classic films from their premium streaming service directed at children for promoting racist sterotypes. In addition to Peter Pan and Dumbo, the Aristocats and Swiss Family Robinson have been taken down for their offensive content.
The mega-corporation which has recently come under criticism for filming the blockbuster “Mulan” in communist China while the religious minority Uighurs are being rounded up and packed into trains destined for concentration camps, has no such qualms with the increased promotion of homosexuality and transgenderism to younger audiences with impressionable minds.
In addition to adding content warnings before classic movies last October, Disney recently banned PETER PAN, DUMBO, THE ARISTOCATS, and SWISS FAMILY ROBINSON for viewers 7 years old and younger.https://t.co/WZwPinnfM9 pic.twitter.com/nB6XSSkHYD

Disney posted the charges against each of the films in their ultra-diverse “Stories Matter” section of their website, and detailed the following thought crimes against the four films that have delighted previous generations
The Aristocats: The cat is depicted as a racist caricature of East Asian peoples with exaggerated stereotypical traits such as slanted eyes and buck teeth. He sings in poorly accented English voiced by a white actor and plays the piano with chopsticks.
Dumbo: The crows and musical number pay homage to racist minstrel shows, where white performers with blackened faces and tattered clothing imitated and ridiculed enslaved Africans on Southern plantations.
Peter Pan: The film portrays Native people in a stereotypical manner that reflects neither the diversity of Native peoples nor their authentic cultural traditions. It shows them speaking in an unintelligible language and repeatedly refers to them as “redskins,” an offensive term.
Swiss Family Robinson: The pirates who antagonize the Robinson family are portrayed as a stereotypical foreign menace. Many appear in “yellow face” or “brown face” and are costumed in an exaggerated and inaccurate manner with top knot hairstyles, queues, robes and overdone facial make-up and jewelry, reinforcing their barbarism and “otherness.”
While the movies have been removed from profiles for children, parents will still be able to access them although not without warnings of thought crimes.
Given the company’s appeasement of China which has also manifested itself throughout corporate America, it probably shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that such measures which always take place in communist countries are now commonplace.
How much longer until the stomping jackboots of cultural revolution thugs will be kicking down doors to confiscate the DVDs?
Like the proverbial boiling frogs, Americans remain blissfully unaware that the cancel culture zealots are gradually increasing the heat on the burner and before they know it, they’ll be soup.
