Parody Alcove: The problem with a symbolic capitalist empire like Disney promoting positive discrimination in its films and shows -- for profit and public image purposes -- is that in the course of that, you get held to higher standards than entertainment studios that don't indulge in such so lavishly.

No more misogynistic portrayals of witches as old crones either?
