    I don't usually complain about that sort of thing because I don't really care and I have better things to do than sit at my computer and go "uh feminism is CANCER????" but the latest FemFreq video straight-up says "Ever notice how Aladdin is handsome and Jafar is ARABIC." That's not cool, Anita????

      @mrmattimation Unless she's trying to point out the hypocrisy in Disney's character design, wherein good guys look whiter than they should and bad guys look Arabic?

        @scribus even if that were the case, that argument blatantly disregards the fact that a lot of different ethnic groups call that part of the world their home, to the point that there are real Arabs who look WHITER than Aladdin does (as one of my high school friends does)

          @mrmattimation Not to mention the Genie's Smurf-offensive blueface.
