Disney Propaganda (courtesy of Krishna Gaines)

Walt Disney Corporation, creator of many beloved movies, show, and paraphenalia. There is said that there is a type of message in some of there cartoons however. It is the American, anti-communist propaganda that is so readily displayed in many Disney cartoons. Take a look at Tale Spin and Darkwing Duck for examples. (many more could be found with just a little more time spent with the Family channel or Teletoon!)

To start with, lets look at Tale spin, a delightful cartoon with Baloo and friends bumbling their way through episode after episode. Now who is one of Baloo's favorite adversaries? Colonol Spicket of Thesbia. Does Thesbia remind you of anywhere? Let's revue the facts shall we? It is cold all the time, it is ruled by a totalitarian dictator who is constantly throwing celebrations and parades to harold his glory, it has a militia that is famous for shooting down any unathorized planes found in it's air space. Also it locks up the pilots and crew with only a mock trial and often puts people in front of a firing squad without any real substantial reason.

Secondly lets revue Darwing Duck, while in his hilarious feats of miscoordinated bravery and gusto manages to retain humour and action. Let's look at Darkwing's rival and fellow SHUSH agent, Grizzlikov. If the guy's name doesn't tip you off, how about the fact that the guy is a bear! Now what animal is most associated with communist Russia? Grizzly Bear?? Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner! Grizzlikov is strictly by the book to a fault. He believes ardently in a dictatorship system in which everyone follows strict rules and answers to one person. True, he is a SHUSH agent, but people on the same side of things can be portrayed evil as well as good if presented in a correct way.

While many people are out there seeing messages of drugs and especially sex in movies and shows by Disney, it is possible that they are missing a different type of message. Our parents grew up with that message taught to them in schools and just about everywhere. Now that tolerance is greater and the cold war is over, this message needs new ways to reach people. Disney is probably part of a govern- ment conspiracy to turn children against communism. Look at the facts, they're plain to see.
