Jordan Peterson: "The most propagandistic element of Frozen was the transformation of the prince at the beginning of the story who was a perfectly good guy, into a villain with no character development whatsoever about three-quarters of the way to the ending."

Almost as if he doesn’t understand that someone can pretend to be good to get what they want, this is a concept that three year olds can get their heads around.

Jordan Peterson ‘shocked’ by Captain America villain Red Skull espousing ‘10 rules for life’ Ta-Nehisi Coates’s new comic sees Red Skull mobilising young men against ‘the feminist trap’ and other Petersonian targets www.theguardian.com/books/2021/a...

meme of Jordan Peterson as the Red Skull quoting from the Time magazine interview about his book 12 Rules For Life: FROZEN IS NOT A LOVELY STORY ABOUT SISTERHOOD IT WAS THE SUBJUGATION OF ART TO PROPAGANDA https://time.com/5176537/jordan-peterson-frozen-movie-disney/

Although to be fair, as a parent of an autistic girl and an ADHD girl, we always thought it was “about” neurodiversity. (Elsa has overwhelming meltdowns and is scared she is hurting those around her, Anna is very ADHD coded) 😂

I think Frozen is a film about the day being saved by the love and acceptance of two people who are sisters (and are neurodiverse), and the help of people who love them. It doesn't require a male romantic hero focus, which is what offends Jordan Peterson's worldview.

I think I heard this is down to a late (inspired) rewrite. One of the sisters was originally to be irredeemably evil, and presumably that made space for a routine outing of a prince/princess Disney tale. I don't know the film well, but maybe the change left the prince character with nowhere to go?

Story I heard was the writing team had to go back to the drawing board after the producers heard "Let It Go."

Let’s not even get started on Frozen 2, where the white community cannot be safe from their collective guilt manifested unless they find and make full reparations to the indigenous peoples they once wronged…

He's a very narrow thinker, which makes him quite dense.

I'm not sure he has ever actually *watched* the damn film. Once you know that Hans is the bad guy, it's painfully obvious from the start. Even if you don't know, he is still creepy and manipulative and weird. A bit like Peterson I guess...
