Description
The author looks at the Disney monolith, which he argues is destroying the ecology, creating an unhealthy environment(physically and morally), has taken over the media, ruined Florida, New York, Southern California, and France and has its eyes on the rest of the world. The author shows that believing in the reality created by Disney company is dangerous because it tries to improve upon nature, convince people to choose their fantasy over reality, blurs the distinction between news and entertainment, and through its animations sends distorted and discriminating messages.
