Yet another old white person with too much money and no sense at all complains about Disney being inclusive. Yes, he is a Christian, conservative republican...from Las Vegas

Wow his family must love going with him if they’re not allowed to go on any ride that’s been updated (wonder if they’re allowed to go on Splash Mountain given the update’s been announced but the old version’s still open).

I’m a big Disney/Disney parks fan (been to all the parks worldwide) but recognise its problems and lol I would never say that being too ‘woke’ was one of them 😂

omg fucking ABOUT time they did something about that ride. I still remember how creepy and weird splash mountain is when I was 7, wasn't until I was an adult that I learned what Song of The South was

Yeah and it’s a Princess and the Frog retheme which is the DREAM. But it’s only at WDW and DL, Tokyo Disneyland’s keeping the original for now 🙄

It’s the Jungle Cruise one that really amazes me how long it’s taken as it’s so much more overt racism than Splash Mountain.

omg Princess and The Frog, I honestly thought they forgot about that movie! Jungle Cruise.....it's shocking that the Trader guy looked like that until 2021!!!!! WTF Disney!

PatF is so underrated and one of my faves, and I love Splash Mountain (the ride itself) so I can't wait!

Ooh, that's awesome to hear! I still think they should have a Tiana's Palace in Epcot, maybe they can add that next.

I’m all for any Tiana content lol. They have Tiana’s Place recreated on the Disney Wonder and it’s amazing, love seeing her character get some recognition.
