Arabs cutting people’s hands off for stealing is racist
>For certain crimes, such as theft, blasphemy, and adultery, traditional interpretations of Islamic law prescribe punishments that are considered draconian compared to those in most modern legal systems. Among them are the hudud punishments, which include stoning, lashing, and amputation
They mention something negative from islamic countries.
Hollywood type artists are hypersensitive to many things common in films from back then because they desperately try to stay acceptable according to the political discourse. It may not make any sense out of their heads and change next month.
Aladdin???
The fricking babies kids movie?
What fricking negative depiction? It's fricking fantasy. Why does that read like I'm being talked down to?
It's just a safety measure in today's zeitgeist. Most likely the average consumer doesn't even know what's offensive in it or why, but the warning's still there so LEGALLY, Disney doesn't get shit from Arab groups that MAY complain, if at all.
I've been shown YouTubers reacting to commercials from the 80s from someone who just loves that react content and I always hear the tuber say "wow it was of its time" and it'll be something like a Mexican dressed as a mariachi band with an American cowboy. Like the most lukewarm things make people scared of offending someone.
It's a bandaid solution and eon't solve anything since people who want to complain will still complain until the target is removed.

Because you know there are crybabies out there who'd take to the internet to whine about it not being addressed. Almost as many crybabies who'd take to the internet to whine about it being addressed.
They'll just slap on this vague warning, because a blanket statement is easier than having to say which portrayals are incorrect and offensive, because oftentimes the so-called offensive portrayals are accurate but just unsavory, meaning they can avoid blatantly lying
The fact that they applied this warning across the board to all Aladdin movies including the remake tells me that the Aladdin cartoon is basically soft-banned and will never be put on Disney Plus. I imagine we'll never see Legend of Tarzan for the same reason too.
What an empty message. >"yeah we realize you homosexuals think this is racist but we want to continue to make money off of a movie almost none of us currently working for disney had any part in making and we don't feel like spending a couple bucks to edit it"
Look up the Australian message about aboriginals. The tldr is >"sorry some guys took your land, we apologize so deeply" >"no we will not give it back, but we're sorry"
I dont want them to give land back, nor do I think Aussies need to, but its the same empty message to grovel.
>Why does this play in front of Aladdin?
because arabs are the only religious peoepl with backbone and barbarity to defend their faith, but cutting off your heads and raping Europeans... and gay-loving liberal feminists love to import them
Whenever he needs money badly enough? I remember he made a big deal about him NOT "reviewing" (he doesn't review, he riffs MST3K style) movies that aren't really bad (in his opinion anyway), and then years later he fricking did.
Only Europe can be treated as barbaric and wrong in the past. Every other part of the world was Portland before Europeans ruined everything (and then became Portland and the others stopped being Portland?).
Why does the modern liberal culture defer so heavily to Arabs anyway, considering their own culture in many countries is heavily misogynistic, homophobic and discriminatory to people of other religions
Lot of lefties refuse to open a history book. Arabs were some of the most barbaric enslavers and colonizers, and still are to this day. But because they're "brown" and follow a ginger pedophile's religion, they must be protected at all costs!!!
I suppose this post will be lost on conspiratorial /misc/ shizos but after WWII and western empires falling apart, the general sentiment of the western world was, we need to pay our dues for colonialism.
We are now at a point were the "western oppressors vs oppressed third world" narrative seems more and more antiquated but leftists stick to it because criticism of western colonialism have historically been such an integral part of their movement. And people invested in leftist theory tend to be extreme dweebs that are completely out of touch with the world around them, thinking all dynamics from the 1930's still apply.
Because Iran was actually pretty progressive before the CIA did their thing. I think Iraq too? Plus we really, really screwed the pooch with Afghanistan on multiple occasions, starting with just leaving them out to dry after the Russkies left, which is what set in motion the events that would lead to 9/11 and the War in Afghanistan.
americans have no idea about how Islam works, thinking children in burka is "a cute tradition" and cutting people hands for apples is "a lie from the whites"
And the Arabian Nights song, yes.
>For certain crimes, such as theft, blasphemy, and adultery, traditional interpretations of Islamic law prescribe punishments that are considered draconian compared to those in most modern legal systems. Among them are the hudud punishments, which include stoning, lashing, and amputation
It’s true though
Truth can be racist.
The truth knows no prejudice.
>Verification not required.
Those peer-reviewed facts were wrong then and they're wrong now.
The one that is censored already since VHS?
because aladdin is old enough that fart huffing journalists can say it "aged like milk"

but isn't that offending in of itself?
>What, just because the movie features arabs, it's offensive?
sounds hella racist to me
censorship always comes back around to being about bigotry and babying grown men and women, so they dont have to use reasonability in their thinking.
Arabs cutting people’s hands off for stealing is racist
That’s the reason really?
>Arab
>posts pic of a Saudi
You're on the right track.
Seeing as it's called Saudi Arabia he's pretty much right there, champ.
Why, they do that. You may as well be offended by depictions of the Dutch wearing wooden clogs.
I am offended by the Dutch, yes.
Kom vechten kankermongool
DUTCH HATER
Whoa, whoa! Calm down with all that Islamophobia!
I thought they still did it
No, only heads now
Royal guards enforcing brutal Shariah justice and attempting to kill Aladdin in every other scene didn't play well with (alleged) Arab Americans.
They mention something negative from islamic countries.
peace be upon him
also
>is a male given name which means "nobility of faith" or "nobility of creed/religion"
Someone watched the latest Nostalgia Critic I see
That's still going?
He's not stopping until the wheels fall off (read: YouTube shuts down or a cancer diagnosis)
>He's not stopping until the wheels fall off (read: YouTube shuts down or a cancer diagnosis)
hes actually good when talking about animation, i like how old boomers will come to his show because they think he's relevant

Rare based guy post
That's not the real guy.
Apparently you think that about anything besides praise of Ren and Stimpy
Going to screenshot this and email it to Industry people
Because the bad guys all have darker skin then the good guys.
Aladdin???
The fricking babies kids movie?
What fricking negative depiction? It's fricking fantasy. Why does that read like I'm being talked down to?
"Its barbaric, but hey, its home!"
when they cut off your ear if they don't like your face
Thank goodness now the people from medieval Arabia won't be offended.
>Why does that read like I'm being talked down to?
Because you are.
It has big
>Goblins are israelites
Energy.
Aladdin is the most watered down child's bed time story on the planet
Didn't they edit the intro song years ago
What's the point of this
Because you know there are crybabies out there who'd take to the internet to whine about it not being addressed. Almost as many crybabies who'd take to the internet to whine about it being addressed.

>It's okay if WB does it
They'll just slap on this vague warning, because a blanket statement is easier than having to say which portrayals are incorrect and offensive, because oftentimes the so-called offensive portrayals are accurate but just unsavory, meaning they can avoid blatantly lying
If Orientalism makes people seethe, then it's based. Simple as.
Besides of the song, Jasmine's dress has been considered offensive from time to time
>muh diversity
>muh inclusivity
>"We don't believe in censorship, trust us."
The fact that they applied this warning across the board to all Aladdin movies including the remake tells me that the Aladdin cartoon is basically soft-banned and will never be put on Disney Plus. I imagine we'll never see Legend of Tarzan for the same reason too.
Good, the TV series is too good to be tarnished by being put on Disney+
Why? Tarzan's a British guy living with animals who meets British explorers then gets attacked by another British guy.
He has the right mindset
So where exactly does this harem girl outfit come from in pup culture if Muzzies have been throwing bedsheets on their women since the Muhammad?
I guess it's an Ottoman Empire thing
Oh it's because of the age difference.
PARTY HARD
>PARTY HARD
I wonder if anyone gets this ancient meme.
It's not the reference unless it gives you seizures
or has the rapping dog
Hag jumpscare
no censorship >> a warning message >> censorship
What an empty message.
>"yeah we realize you homosexuals think this is racist but we want to continue to make money off of a movie almost none of us currently working for disney had any part in making and we don't feel like spending a couple bucks to edit it"
>"and we don't feel like spending a couple bucks to edit it"
I see no issue here
If they started cutting or changing scenes I would declare global fatwa on all Disney employees
Look up the Australian message about aboriginals. The tldr is
>"sorry some guys took your land, we apologize so deeply"
>"no we will not give it back, but we're sorry"
I dont want them to give land back, nor do I think Aussies need to, but its the same empty message to grovel.
The apologies are done out of fear. And you know of who.
>Why does this play in front of Aladdin?
because arabs are the only religious peoepl with backbone and barbarity to defend their faith, but cutting off your heads and raping Europeans... and gay-loving liberal feminists love to import them
NC review of Aladdin if anyone is interested. He should do Tangled since that started the modern Disney renaissance.
>anyone is interested
I'm not. frick off with this homosexual
When is NC gonna bite the bullet and review horse show movies?
Whenever he needs money badly enough? I remember he made a big deal about him NOT "reviewing" (he doesn't review, he riffs MST3K style) movies that aren't really bad (in his opinion anyway), and then years later he fricking did.
They say "Allahu akbar"
I told him, "Don't curse me"

Because foreign = innocent victim of western colonialism. It is not about thinking, never was about thinking. Or making sense
Lot of lefties refuse to open a history book. Arabs were some of the most barbaric enslavers and colonizers, and still are to this day. But because they're "brown" and follow a ginger pedophile's religion, they must be protected at all costs!!!
But someone made them think this way. Why? Why would israelites do that if they hate Arabs? Money must be somehow involved here.

So they are out of touch bigoted conservatives without realizing it?
Because Iran was actually pretty progressive before the CIA did their thing. I think Iraq too? Plus we really, really screwed the pooch with Afghanistan on multiple occasions, starting with just leaving them out to dry after the Russkies left, which is what set in motion the events that would lead to 9/11 and the War in Afghanistan.
When they make the series available?
americans have no idea about how Islam works, thinking children in burka is "a cute tradition" and cutting people hands for apples is "a lie from the whites"
there are arabians in it, apparently depicting brown people is wrong
