“I’m surrounded by idiots” has to be the greatest thing any Disney character has ever said 😂😂😂

Being multi racial myself and having been the recipient of racist remarks and actions, I'm just not getting offended at cartoons from 90 years ago.

When you see racism in the hyenas from the lion king you know your looking way too hard to see something..

King louis is not racist, he’s literally a talking Orang Utang, who is voiced by someone with an incredible voice

In all fairness, "savages" is sang by both the english settlers AND the natives. The idea of the song was to enforce the fact that both sides saw the other as uncivilized, savage, murderous and dangerous.

Wow, you completely missed the point of Savages. It's sung by BOTH sides and they're BOTH reducing the other side to "savages" and we're supposed to hate how they're both letting their fear and hatred drive them to war.

Also, King Louie was voiced by Louis Prima and is using HIS style of music.

Never saw the Siamese cats from Lady and the Tramp racist. I saw them as mischievous twin sisters.

I’m black but I still laughed at the black fish. Just, her singing

I feel like there's alot of blatant one-sideness towards King Louie in The Jungle Book. King Louie is inspired character from Louie Armstrong who was VERY popular at the time, and originally he was suppose to be voice actor for King Louie but, Disney had cold feet to idea since, it would come off as racist. Louie Prima ended up with the role and he lived in same state/area as Armstrong, so he would have similar accent as such. But he was Italian and not African American. Entire scene is nod to 60s Jazz music explosion, plus it's not making fun of any race at all. The monkeys were chaotic in the novels aswell and King Louie is wanting to possess the knowledge of fire. People just love setting false narrative.

What people don't get about King Louie is that Louis Prima, the jazz musician who voiced Louie, was an Italian Swing Singer who does a lot of scatting in his own songs

Racism is taught. I NEVER once took offence to any of the Siamese cats in Lady and Tramp or Aristrocats growing up. I appreciated the representation.

‘Savages’ did have obviously racist lyrics but that was kind of the point - they’re demonstrating xenophobia on BOTH sides based on their fears & ignorance & given the time period of the film is pretty accurate to how the colonists would have reacted to Native American tribes. So given the context of the film, I wouldn’t call it inappropriate as it’s demonstrating the evils of racism (at least that’s what I got from it)

I find it hard to believe anyone found the fish racially offensive in the little mermaid. It's like people are looking for things to be offended about. It's a bit silly.

Seems we're stretching on some of these. "Savages" was sung by both sides, yet the video shows only the settlers singing it. If the hyenas in Lion King were problematic, I'm sure Whoopi and Cheech would've said something.

About the Aladdin video, a woman from the Middle East was beaten and ended dying because she wasn’t wearing the hajib. So yeah, those lyrics are pretty spot on.

So basically, Walt had a cannibalism fetish back in the day.

I see nothing offensive about the hyenas...and this is coming from a black guy

The Little Mermaid fish one is a huge stretch, all the fish were similar in design pretty much

I’m so sick of people commenting on how racist old films were when only certain scenes are picked out and criticized without giving full context of the time, setting, and cultural setting of the film. Guess what what happened then hasn’t stopped today. Why don’t you talk about current movies that are racist today because that’s the standard we as viewers have today. Don’t judge the past learn from it.
