Yes. They are pushing that window of “normalcy” as hard and as far to the Left as they can.

My wife got a movie from the Library because she thought I would like it: “Hoppers” which came out last year from Pixar Studios.

I am pretty certain she got it for me because I used to be a huge fan of Pixar back in the day when they were actually making good, creative, quality, fun animated features with great storylines that were unpolluted by wokeness.

But the truth is, I stopped following them years ago when they took a turn to the left and began incorporating leftist themes into their features. I became quite disgusted with them.

For me, even though my disgust with them had peaked some years before, I was particularly incensed and revolted to see them market a feature called “Lightyear” in which two females have a full-on-lips homosexual kiss. Apologists say “it was just a quick kiss, and women do that kind of thing” and so on. We know better. And the homosexual community knew better, too. And this, marketing directly towards young children by the left in entertainment.

But to be polite, my wife took the time to pick the movie out for me, so when she said she wanted to watch it, I sat down with her to watch it.

It absolutely did not disappoint me and fulfilling all the worst ways that I thought it would disappoint me.

In my post, I mentioned entertainment as an element, pushing the Overton window (in addition to the media, education, politics, etc.) this was an object example of that pushing the Overton window to the left.

Worse, it markets it towards very young children. It was pushing the theme that humans are evil, nature is inherently good, progress is capitalistic evil, and children should rise up, disobey their parents and teachers, and do “what is right”, such as protesting a construction sites, breaking into facilities to free animals, that kind of thing.

And it wasn’t lost on me, that the only Mail whites portrayed were almost universally bad guys. I also noticed that the young female character in it who appeared to be a high school age kid, had no father in her life, only two women…her mother and grandmother.

These things may seem like nitpicking to some, but they are real and meaningful… And fully intentional. They could’ve told that story in a variety of ways, but they chose to frame it in that fashion and market it at young children.

It is just another example of one of the things I find despicable about the left. They just can’t keep their fingers out of the malleable young skulls, full of mush.
