Have you ever wondered why everyone hated the Nazis so much, besides the fact they were intolerant killing machines? I think it is because Disney told them to. Not one to be left out of the action or miss an opportunity to make a little money, Walt Disney churned out wartime propaganda films just to make sure everyone was on the same page in hating the Nazis and supporting the war. After all, Total War means that even cartoon characters have to do their part.

Wow! I had no idea how blatant Disney was with their propaganda. That is ridiculous. Lindsay do you know the years those cartoons were made?
Nonw od my video youtube links worked which is a shame. I knew that Dr. Suess was involved with some political opinions as a children's book that I read to a three year old several months ago was about two villages and the escalating tensions that in effect led to full out nuclear warfare. It was quite clearly advocating for nuclear disarmement. BUT I didn't know that he was also involved in the WWII era of TRYING to get the Americans to go to war. Very interesting, and I guess not so surprising that he was quite opinionated from the very articulate nature of his cartoons.
none of my* Don't quite know what happened here...
