Of course, you can't have Disney stories told in which a freedom loving Cinderella succeeds, while matching up her measure... with a constitutional republic of a shoe (preferring ballistic carbon fiber army boots to glass in its construction... and a less corrupt set of footmen as judges) to find a perfect fit. Certainly can't have any of that story showing Cinderella succeed... by murdering her evil step mother (Hillary ?) and her evil step sisters (Nancy and Gretchen ?)... rather than passively waiting for the patriarchy to recognize her intrinsic goodness... as demonstrated in her unfailing submission to authority... until saved by being selected by some higher authority ?

The Disney story as told... is directly of that era in which it was purposed in propagandizing submission to monarchical authority...

Mine, as modified to be consistent with the story about the self liberation enabled by the wolves... is the reality of how humanity ever managed to have escaped from monarchy... and its evil ideological clone in communism... both of which reduce people to being the property of the state... the only difference, I note often enough... in "who gets to be king"...

The legacy we have in morality tales told as fairy stories... has them largely de-politicized...

Not recently... because of some error committed in overly controversial uses of suggestive names in particular roles... but, because a generic anonymity in (characters) was an essential part of survival for authors back in the grim times preceding that (1812 still not the worst of it) when Grimms fairy tales were collected... as passed down from earlier sources.

Europe... in the teens... not much different than Iran, China, or Saudi Arabia today... in being totalitarian... with the role of media, then as now, being as authorized apologists and fluffers for the royalty...

Disney is so put off by the threat that the retelling of "reality based" morality tales represents, today... even those from a prior age already pre-conditioned as sycophantic to authority... that they've proceeded to making up new ones, out of whole cloth ( or by so corrupting the originals) with new messages that are intended to encourage that same brand of submission... only with sycophancy focused on the preferred new types of tyrants... as a part of only tacitly opposing the evils of the old ones... in order to excoriate and castigate the new source of evil: those terrorists who believe in freedom... rule by law not men... unfiltered media... and elections that are not fraudulent...

My definition of there being no difference between communists and kings... also applies to their shared interest in exercising dictatorial, not editorial, control over the media...

So, no new Disney stories... or Bond films... featuring identifiable Adnan Khashoggi characters...

And, no new Disney stories... or Bond films... featuring identifiable Jamal Kashoggi characters...

While the "powers that be" in the media... sycophants all... help the tyrants to censor, terrorize, and not speak obvious truths. And, while helping the tyrants to foster fear... avoid any advocacy for the courage to stand up and be a part of the resistance... even if only in speaking while repeating truths that need to be spoken...

The wolves tale... should be told...

There should already be annual awards... named after Snowden and Assange... not because they've been effective... but because they've had the moral courage to speak truth... that the media lack...
