None of the kids have parents.

If they do, the parents are evil, and if the parents are not evil, they get killed.

Im not saying anything about it other than it's weird....

Movies are supposed to connect the viewer to the emotions that the main character is feeling. Disney's audience are kids whose strongest connections are to their parents. I dont know how healthy or unhealthy it is to invoke that type of emotional reaction in a child but i understand why they kill off the parents.

Narratively, it also allows the kid to have off-the-wall adventures without having the parents say "absolutely not!"

You could argue this about every major fairy tale as well. While I agree that DIsney is shady as f*ck, this seems more like a common storytelling trope that goes back to the middle ages than a social engineering message.

I said Disney was evil when The Little Mermaid got what she wanted when she defied her father.

People said I was crazy. I started pointing out how they killed the mother and traumitized children in every movie.

It's evil manipulation.

I hope they fail miserably.

Pinnochio talks about taking little boys to pleasure island. My daughter looks for symbolism like others search for Pokémon! Looking back at that stuff, it’s so creepy.

Disney has ALWAYS had the same agenda as BLM does now....

Breakdown of the nuclear family and replacing it with the "Alphabet People"
(LGBTQ...)

It's not just Disney. At least back to Treasure Island (1883), writers have realized that if you're going to have young protagonists, you have to get the parents out of the way so that the kids can go off on adventures.

Harry Potter, Roald Dahl books... unless you want the relationship with the parents to be one of the major plot points, you have to get rid of them. I don't necessarily think it's anything insidious. Adventures = danger, and good parents will keep their kids out of danger. That's why most kids with two parents live normal balanced lives, but they still enjoy reading about adventure.

It's been this way for decades OP, since mid 80s at the least. Who do you think was controlling those narratives?

Also the main underlying message in all the stupid pedo movies . "FOLLOW YOUR HEART OR LISTEN TO YOUR HEART". Basically aleister crowley motto 'do what thou wilt'

Disney was a very high level in the Freemasons who are luciferian. They are evil and are after your kids.

This will be unpopular, but to be fair to Disney et al, the same could be said for most classic fairy tales from hundreds of years ago. Disney didn't invent the formula. Their whole company was founded on taking public domain fairy tales and animating them. Dead and absent parents, evil step-mothers, and tragic orphans have always been a staple of children's adventure stories for the obvious reason that children with two loving and active parents don't get into dangerous and exciting adventures.

How do you tell a fish that water is wet?

How do you tell an American that they have been indoctrinated in Marxism since birth?

Open your Bible with your kids.
