this fucking guy...

Testimony before Congress
Walt Disney testified before the House Un-American Activities Committee, where he branded Herbert Sorrell, David Hilberman and William Pomerance, former animators and labor union organizers, as Communist agitators. (All three men denied the allegations.) Disney implicated the Screen Actors Guild as a Communist front, and charged that the 1941 strike was part of an organized Communist effort to gain influence in Hollywood. However, no evidence has been discovered to support this.[citation needed]
Documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act show that from 1941 until his death, he spied for the FBI on union activity in Hollywood, and illegally intimidated union activists.[6] Since Jews were prominent in the labor movement, some employees felt that Disney's actions were motivated by anti-semitism. However, there is no evidence of this.[7][8]

There is a thread on here (revleft) where Disney actually produced some Nazi propaganda. Allegedly it's Nazi propiganda.

Both Der Fuehrer's Face and Education for Death are actually US propaganda pieces.

^^^What he said (I would’ve added a “thumbs-up” icon there are none).

Yeah, I one of them which was linked on a message-board a few years ago but since that board was closed I haven’t seen it since. I believe it was starring Daffy Duck.

I remember this scene from Family Guy where they wake up Walt Disney from frozen hibernation. When he wakes up he asks if the Jews are exterminated, when he hears they are not he puts himself back to hibernation.

It's a world of laughter
A world of tears
It's a world of hopes
And a world of fears
There's so much that we share
That it's time we're aware
It's a small world after all

There is just one moon
And one golden sun
And a smile means
Friendship to ev'ryone
Though the mountains divide
And the oceans are wide
It's a small world after all

It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small, small world
:)

Good article, El kablamo.

Underdog is another cartoon you can include among the racist,etc. propaganda with main characters such as UnderDog/Shoe Shine Boy, Polly Purebread, Simon Bar-Sinister and Riff Raff.

I also remember hearing the guy was a pedophile, not sure if it was true or not but considering his "love of children" doesn't seem to far fetched.
