Cancel culture’s latest victim: Snow White. In an article for SFGate, editors Julie Tremaine and Katie Dowd criticized Disneyland’s revamped Snow White ride for including scenes of the movie’s iconic kiss between the prince and a sleeping Snow White.
“A kiss,” the authors claim, “he gives to her without her consent, while she’s asleep, which
cannot possibly be true love if only one person knows it’s happening.” Horror of horrors! As if being pursued by a murderous stepmother isn’t enough, the beloved fairy tale character is, in fact, a victim of rape culture!
