Title: I'm surprised Disney got away with this

I love how politically incorrect this is.  I'm still amazed it got past the censors.

It's also a great song.

fixed

For some reason it only works when you click on the link, not the embedded version.  It's still up there on youtube.

Who said American history had to be politically correct?

Oh look RomanCollar is talking about racism again!

Seriously, back between the XVI and XVIII century there werent even human rights, and racism was at its finest during the colonies so its simply a realistic point of view, it is not portraited as something happy and cheered, its being set as something intimidating.

Also Disney's 2D is the fucking bomb.

No one understands what "Embedding disabled by request" means. :p

You know, when I first saw this number when I was 8, I didn't think much of it. I'm not sure why; maybe I didn't understand violence and xenophobia back then.

You know, I never quite understood what the Chief said at the end of the movie when he decided not to kill John Smith and not go to war with the colonists.

I think he said "As of today, there will be more killing, but it will not be started by me." ...Did he know what genocidal bastards the English were in advance, or is there something I'm not getting?

The song isn't politically incorrect or racist. It shows how crazy and hateful people can be. Saying Pocahontas is racist is like saying tofu is steak.

He says "IF there is to be more killing, it will not start with me".

He's the villain of course he's going to be horribly vilified. Even Scar's "Be Prepared" montage made him look like Hitler.
