This is why we can’t have nice things. Two female Hollywood stars have declared this week that some Disney movies are just too sinful in the #MeToo era for their daughters to see. Kristen Bell, star of Disney’s “Frozen,” and Keira Knightley, star of Disney’s upcoming “The Nutcracker and the Four Realms,” each took issue with Disney classics for the message they send about women.
“Don’t you think that it’s weird that the prince kisses Snow White without her permission?” Bells says of “Snow White.” “Because you can not kiss someone if they’re sleeping!” Knightley, on the other hand, gripes about “Cinderella” and “The Little Mermaid,” saying, “[Cinderella] waits around for a rich guy to rescue her. Don’t! Rescue yourself. Obviously!” As for the latter, “I mean, the songs are great,” she says, “but do not give your voice up for a man. Hello!”
Far be it from us to say any of these films is beyond criticism, but that’s not really the point. The issue is that militant feminism, weaponized #MeToo, and the overall “social justice warrior” crowd is ruining a lot of fairly wholesome stuff that families have enjoyed for decades.
But we give the award to The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh for a hilarious, sarcastic takedown of this inane blather:

These dingbats have nothing better to do than go on about Disney movies? Get a Ilife lamebrains or better yet STHU.
PC run AMUCK
Disney will never pull any of those movies from circulation. They've withstood the test of time and have been voted into continuation by consumer dollars.
"Song of the South", however, didn't, even though it has a great story line and reflects a time in America's social history that everyone seems to want to erase. If only Uncle Remus were an old white guy telling Early American fables on the rickety porch and the Tar Baby made of gumdrops, this movie would probably still be a favorite.
Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah, everybody!
So I'm assuming these hypocritical actresses will no longer take royalties from the films
Thank you for bringing that up 7:52, I remember the movie when I was little and never heard of it again. I really would love to see it again. The song rocks!
No one is bigger than Disney, no one!
Two snowflakes who suddenly think they can change it all, yet one admits to smoking weed!
Two loons are missing from the lake.
