The Disney Parallel

Many of us today are aware of the dangers of exposing our children to stories that encode, for example, dreams of fairy tale marriages with the first person we fall in love with at first sight. Disney as one of the chief communicators of folklore-borne Archetypes into our civilisation’s minds has responded to this fear by ensuring its stories today are updated. What if Russia or MAGA was using the same means that genuinely traditional folklore and fairy tales once did to prepare females for a life of subservience to the first knight in shining armour who showed them love? What if Russia and MAGA were using what I call Disinfolklore complete with artificial Archetyping that had the power to affect our minds without us even noticing?
