Walt Disney was at least a Nazi sympathizer and at worst apart of the American Nazi part, which there were many in 1943. Key note:Hitler and Disney both made propaganda for each side and also used theaters to subvert, indoctrinate and brain wash their viewers. As did the allies in WW2, madness.

      Yeah, you keep telling yourself that, horse collar.
      Meanwhile, the Democratic Party has:
      • Brought in over 20,000 troops, and put up barbed wire fences, for its recent presidential inauguration
      • Declared that all Trump personnel should be silenced online, and have their professional lives canceled, such that they're never able to work again
      • Declared most Trump supporters (which is at least 80M Americans) "white supremacists" (despite the fact that Trump's policies led to the lowest ever unemployment numbers for all racial minorities, despite the fact that Trump restored funding for black colleges, despite the fact that Trump established prison justice reform which set thousands of black free from prison, and despite the fact that Trump secured more racial minority votes than any Republican in at least the last 100 years)
      • Declared most Trump supporters (again, which is at least 80M Americans) "domestic terrorists"
      If you seriously think that Trump, not the historically godawful Democratic Party (party of slavery, party of the KKK, party of Jim Crow laws, party of men competing in women's sports, party of unfettered illegal immigration, party of anti-white bigotry, party of Marxism and socialism, etc. etc.) is the equivalent of the Empire, then you simply don't inhabit the real world. You inhabit the far left bubble of anti-American hatred. *YOU* are the Empire.
