”Share a Disney quote that sums up how you’re feeling right now!”
That’s what Disney posted on Threads the other day, and people immediately replied with lines from Star Wars, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and even Mary Poppins. The throughline between all the quotes: they were pretty pointedly anti-fascist and clearly aimed at the current administration
The article links a screenrecording of the thread, but it’s a Zuck product so to save you a click:

Thank you, Threads is a garbage pit.
A monarchy where succession is decided by trial-by-combat though?

Thats Peter Quill.
Disney are also really shitty at removing any context in their movies. An interesting scene at the beginning of the movie Encanto a flashback references an unknown conflict in Colombia resulting in the death of the grandmother’s husband. What conflict Disney? Who were the bad guys Disney? Further research by an interested viewer will reveal that it was a civil war involving a right wing of rebels backed by the US, rose up against a leftist government.
LoL.
Conservatives support the god damned storm troopers too.
Edit: ICE even aims like them too.
Learn from the wisdom contained within our magical tales, child…
NO NOT LIKE THAT!!
“The poison. The poison for Kuzco. The poison chosen especially to kill Kuzco. Kuzco’s poison. That poison?”
Just replace Kuzco with any number of evil people fucking shit up rn.
But don’t worry, someone recorded it for posterity.
Link?
(Was it in the article? I failed to find…)
[With the help of an LLM] Here’s a few worthy quotes:
“To be my own master. Such a thing would be greater than all the magic and all the treasures in all the world.” — Genie, Aladdin (1992)
“You think you’re so clever, but you’re just a cowardly, backstabbing, murderous lizard!” — Simba, The Lion King (1994)
“A true hero isn’t measured by the size of his strength, but by the strength of his heart.” — Zeus, Hercules (1997)
“I won’t be a pawn in someone else’s game!” — Pinocchio, Pinocchio (1940)
“You’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” — Christopher Robin, Winnie the Pooh (1966–1977)
“I’d rather die tomorrow than live a hundred years without knowing freedom.” — John Smith, Pocahontas (1995)
“You can’t own a human being!” — Dr. David Q. Dawson, The Aristocats (1970)
The LLM lied. Those aren’t quotes from Lion King, Pinocchio, Pocahontas, Aristocats, or Winnie the Pooh. (Christopher Robin did say that, but not in that specific movie. And it’s not particularly antifa either)
Also, Dr Dawson isn’t from the Aristocats. He’s from Great Mouse Detective, and didn’t say the line there either.
Thanks for that.
It’s linked in the article here
It is recorded as a video in the article (screen capture from scrolling Threads on a phone).
Can’t they just post screenshot, or just paste the text of the quotes? Like I really need to watch a video of this…
Somebody, somewhere, is updating their list of all the old pre-fascism movies and TV shows that will need to be erased from the culture.
Meanwhile, I’m going through this list right now of Best Anti-Fascist Films of All Time
So their whole pre-2025 catalogue? Haha oh my.
Only in America is Hydra the good guys.

Doesn’t load for me.
