“Make the kid go as a vampire, ghoul, zombie, skeleton, Frankenstein’s monster or something. How is some princess scary?”

Or the scariest of all...as a democrat!

Now, now....there's such a thing as going too far.

But she’s OK with a Mickey Mouse costume. The first thing that enters my mind when I hear “Mickey Mouse” is “gay days” at Disney parks. We haven’t entered a Disney movie or park since the mid-’90s.

You could spice up a Democrat outfit to make it less scary:

And to think I was Willie Mays for Halloween when I was ten. My mom used a burnt cork to darken my skin. He was my first sports hero, I had it all, except talent of course: uniform, bat, glove, etc.

The concept of cultural appropriation is laughable.

Ultimately I need nothing from other cultures, and yet they need almost everything from mine.

It’s merely a tool for the leftists, and a crutch for failed individuals who can”t make the cut.

Such terms only work because WE allow them to work.

Exactly! Just tell them to get back to reality or go to hell then do what you damn well please!

I was in Disneyland Paris just last month. Very nice park, though I wouldn't make a trip for the sole purpose of visiting it.

I’d think this character would be a GREAT one for little girls to emulate. Powerful, pretty and she gets the job done!

But, what do I know? FemiNazis are SO much smarter than all of the rest of us, combined.

Your post is a tour de force of white people problems!

Hilarious, but the subtext is just sad, sad, sad.

Reminds me of the crack Bob Hope made in a movie. They were on an Island of Zombies and when Hope heard the description about the characteristics of Zombies, he replied..”What you mean like Democrats?”. I nearly split my gut watching that!

An article on raceconscious.org by Sachi Feris has been making the rounds on mommy Facebook groups.

I’m sure this mom is teaching her daughter the importance of “virtue signaling” without dealing with the uncomfortable area of actual Virtue.

It’s culturally inappropriate to comment on cultural impropriety.
