OPLINE Disney said Friday it “regret[s]” a high school drill team performance at Walt Disney World this week that was widely condemned for its racist depiction of Native Americans, claiming it did not know the group would chant “Scalp ‘em!” and promising that it has put measures in place to prevent similar incidents in the future—a response advocates criticize as still being insufficient.

Disney east or west is a no go for me and my family.
“Scalp ‘um”? Maybe they bought their tickets from scalpers?
I hate this world.
Disney should blush in shame, though they are so blind to their own double standards, they do not know why or How.
Why does he ask you, “How?”
Why does he ask you, “How?”
Once the Injun didn’t know
All the things that he know now
But the Injun, he sure learn a lot
And it’s all from asking, “How?”
Hana Mana Ganda
Hana Mana Ganda
We translate for you
Hana means what mana means
And ganda means that too
When did he first say, “Ugh!”
When did he first say, “Ugh!”
In the Injun book it say
When the first brave married squaw
He gave out with a big ugh
When he saw his Mother-in-Law
What made the red man red?
What made the red man red?
Let’s go back a million years
To the very first Injun prince
He kissed a maid and start to blush
And we’ve all been blushin’ since
You’ve got it from the headman
The real true story of the red man
No matter what’s been written or said
Now you know why the red man’s red!
You should see the trash that they put out on their Disney Plus Channel.
The company still has been criticized for the portrayal of Native Americans on the attraction Peter Pan’s Flight, which has not been updated even as the company added a warning to the film Peter Pan on Disney Plus for the film’s “negative depictions and/or mistreatment of people or cultures.”
There were less than 3,500 blacks lynched in all of US history, a teeny portion of the total # of blacks. Yet we talk like lynching was more common than a Democrat lying. Meanwhile there were probably more scalpings done by the indigenous folks, but to talk like that existed at all is RRRAAAAAAAASSSSSSSIIIIIIISSSSSSSSST.
I conclude, if we are to abide by woke standards, that we must BAN Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, and everything that they have ever been directly in contact with.
Boycott Disney.
Shouldn’t we “ban” that word scalp? It scares the piss out of the residents of “da home of da brave.” It should be the home of the Headstart alumni. Babies.
Naww. There are at least 3,500 blacks killed by death squads of white police officers each weekend driving by and randomly shooting them each weekend.
(Is that BLM enough for ya?)
It must get real tiring to be WOKE.
To live in a world where your history and culture is judged by standards that did not exist 30 seconds before someone announced they are offended has to be difficult.
You say something in fun, or laugh at a joke that is funny and you may have thought was acceptable only to discover you have become an evil person in the world of the WOKE.
In the world of the WOKE there is no room for humor, no room for history, no room for culture, no room for any original thought.
The only safe path is by assimilating into the WOKE and accepting every thought given to you knowing that just one mis-step, one wrong word, one wrong laugh will make you a target for the WOKE.
Would Disney have been happier had they chanted, “Groom ‘em”?
Not a dime from me to D either, but how is any of this “racist”? That dog just won’t hunt anymore.
As for me and my family..NO way will we be going to Weirdoland.
I hope all of the girls (and possibly boys) on the drill team feel shame for uttering such offensive words. I foresee a school board meeting where those harmful words are stricken from the the school’s vernacular. Scalp ‘em will be replaced by Sniff ‘em in honor of Brandon.
I was done when Splash Mountain was “re-imagined” as a black ride, “The Princess and the Frog.”
Too woke for me and my family.
Some tribes practiced scalping long before the English, French, and Scots arrived in North America... scalping cuts have been found on dated skulls. I don’t recall if the skulls predated Viking discoveries but since these skulls were not from anywhere near a Viking settlement it is pretty safe to say at least some indigenous North Americans practiced the art on other indigenous North Americans.
If the drill team really did chant “scalp em Indians scalp em”
How stupid are they?
Dump Disney. I’m offended that they’re offended.
