Disney Experiments
Posted to my Facebook on June 16, 2016
This is something that popped into my head today, I would like to see what others think about it:
I feel like we are the 'Disney' generation. We were one of the first generations that instead of playing outside and learning life lessons we were taught by people who sat in a building and drew on paper. They sat in boardrooms and discussed what angles they should take, what colour peoples skin should be, how characters should talk, what 'morals' they were trying to instill on children. We were shown that no matter what happens things will get better, a knight in shining armor will come to save you or a bunch of dwarves will make you happy with your life and everyone lives happily ever after.
Now that we are all grown up many people feel lost because they were told and shown as children that as long as you hope and dream things will get better. Now-a-days I see all these random videos of 'Look at these hidden images in Lion King' big fucking deal, how about the fact that a talking pig and a rodent just magically showed up and helped make Simba become who he was meant to be. PEOPLE, no one is coming to help you, YOU HAVE TO BE SIMBA, YOU HAVE TO BE RAFIKKI, YOU HAVE TO BE SCAR. We need to teach the next generation not to just absorb all the stuff that is infront of them but actually look into and question the morals and beliefs they are being taught. People will freak out at teachers for 'discussing something controversial' in a classroom but allow their children to sit with an iphone in front of their face while at a restaurant instead of instilling the proper morals and etiquette from a young age.
ughh first world problems.
