Reviewbrah from the future?
All dead people is racis, even hitler was rasis
the only evidence people cling to is he took a liking to Riefenstahl.
He hired a jew woman to do Alice's voice and made her sign a contract that she could never do voice acting again and also paid her almost nothing.
Outjewing the jews 101
From a contemporary perspective, probably. For his time? Not particulary.
Like everyone in his generation he was AT LEAST a bit racist.
He had likely never met a negro who wasn't a toilet cleaner or a murderous face on a newspaper.
After relations soured between the Third Reich and the USA, though, he clearly picked the democratic side, mostly in the name of american values and patriotism.
He wasn't racist, he just hated blacks and jews.
...
They are wearing white gloves, like Masons do.
Are the masons racist?
How is that even possible, just not hired with Disney?
I know blacklisting but surely Disney wasn't that big especially when he wouldn't want to associate with Hollywood
It's all bullshit cooked up to make him look bad after her took on the unions and joined the anticommunist crack down.
He hired more women, blacks, and Asians than any movie company did and paid them handsomely.
Some of the cartoons to today's standard are considered racist but Walt wasn't doing all the work or any work at all on the shorts.
The "Walt Disney is an anti-Semite" then later "Walt Disney is a racist" claims began when his animators and writers were coxed into joining Screen Cartoonist's Guild. They muscled all the other studios into signing up except Disney. Before the strike Disney was restructuring after Snow White hit it big. He was now taking a meritocratic approach paying the top performers more as well as giving them perks. This created an opening for Screen Cartoonist's Guild creator Herbert Sorrell to turn Disney's own workers against him.
Disney held firm that he didn't want a guild controlling his company via employees and his attempts to scold those who did sign up only worked against him.
In the end the Disney company was forced to become part of the guild.
After that Disney was approached by Anti-communist groups who convinced him that guilds and strikes were caused by communist agitators. Disney who felt betrayed by the strike soon turned full Anti-Communist and joined the witch hunt.
After that he the rumor of him being an anti Semite caught wind then it turned into other shit that kooks like Meryl Streep openly claim and people take as truth despite former animators saying Walt was no racist.
Depends on the specific lodge/temple.
t. mason
no not really but they are segregated.
This. Having common sense doesn't make you a racist.
>He was now taking a meritocratic approach paying the top performers more as well as giving them perks.
>everyone else though they were entitled to the studio gym, ice cream parlor, and shit just for showing up
Sounds like something Jews to me
He really is too pure for this world.
Who cares?
(((They))) ruin everything
Good chart, but Beauty and the Beast is just as good as most early Disney films. Other than that, this is pretty vomit inducing.
Well sure, but Leni Riefenstahl was a genius artist tragically loyal to an ideology gone wrong, because she loved her nation and her art. People who can't appreciate that are plebs who can't see the beauty in it.
He would really make a qt trap.
>Implying Emperor's New Groove isn't a masterpiece
More than you could ever imagine.
No one is questioning the technical prowess or storytelling but the message.
The messages in that era of Disney would go on to influence little kids for generations.
>implying being racist is bad
No, he only hated jews.
Actually Beauty & the Beast was rewritten to cater to the feminist audience. That was the beginning. From there all Disney movies have been about "female empowerment". i think it culminated with Mulan, an asian girl who dresses as a man so she can go to war too.
He hated Blacks and Poos as well
Does it matter?
>Talking shit about Hercules
Have you no taste?
He was a god among men. A true artist. People like him don't exist anymore.
Everyone was racist back then, idiot.
No more so than your great grandpa
>well that didn't take long at all.
I love Walt Disney. I don't care what sjw liars think about him. I'll stick with Disney over ccultural marxism any day. Fvck all of you sjws. I much prefer "racists" to pc idiots.
