He is \u2064essentially an\u200c absent father who goes almost entirely \u2063unmentioned as his wife, the evil\u200d queen, attempts to murder his daughter, Snow White.<\/p>\n<p>Why is her father\u2063 rarely, if ever,\u200d mentioned in\u200c the original story? To understand \u2063why you have to understand the\u200d purpose \u2062of folklore. \u2064Folktales like\u2063 \u201cSnow \u2063White\u201d are traditional short stories for children orally passed down to both\u2064 teach a moral lesson and preserve \u200da shared culture.<\/p>\n<p>The full\u2063 version of \u201cSnow White\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/americanliterature.com\/childrens-stories\/snow-white\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">can be read<\/a> in no more than 10-15 minutes because oral tradition requires stories to be easily memorized, concise, and digestible to keep \u200bchildren\u2019s attention.<\/p>\n<p>Consequently, folktales focus on\u200b conveying only\u2063 a few key moral lessons. In \u201cSnow White,\u201d envy \u2014 on the part\u2062 of the queen \u2014 and vanity \u2014 on the part of the queen \u200cand Snow White \u2014 are central to the \u2062story.\u2062 This is why these women\u200d are the \u200btale\u2019s most prominent figures. There\u2019s no\u2064 time to explore \u200bthe king\u2019s marriage with the\u200d queen nor his political aspirations \u200bfor Snow White.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-a83529fffc74be23481075576ee30789 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-6\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-a83529fffc74be23481075576ee30789\"><\/div>\n<p>\u201cSnow White\u201d is primarily a \u200cstory of womanhood, worldly temptation, blossoming \u200binto maturity, and\u2064 the perils of failing to grow old gracefully. (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HCHjcr1Gb3g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jordan Peterson and Jonothan Pageau break this down wonderfully<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also\u2062 a story about\u200b love. Although it\u2019s over-emphasized in the 1937 Disney adaptation, in both the Grimm\u2064 and Disney iterations, Snow White is swept off\u2063 her feet and removed from the influence and malice \u200bof\u2062 the \u200cevil\u200c queen\u200b as her prince charming\u200c carries her off to a better life.<\/p>\n<p>No\u200c one should be surprised \u200cthat Snow White\u2019s\u2063 desire for her prince (in the 1937 film) \u200cand contentment in \u200cmarriage (in both versions) would be scrubbed from the new\u200c live-action. One of the feminists\u2019 most obnoxious attacks on popular culture \u200dover the last several years is \u2063declaring war on Disney princesses for\u2062 their \u201cproblematic\u201d promotion of gender norms, romance, and\u200c marriage.\u2062 As Zegler declared, women \u2064should not be \u200d\u201cdreaming about true love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Consequently,\u200c woke moms have refused to let \u2064their children watch classic Disney \u200cprincess films or even \u200callow\u200c them to play with Disney princess dolls. And \u2062as a \u2062way of apologizing for their classic princess characters, Disney \u2062made every one\u200b of its \u2064new \u2064characters a girl-boss who never\u2064 wants\u2062 or needs a man.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-6ba21b18562fa82c7283300d3bd94d1b fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-10\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-6ba21b18562fa82c7283300d3bd94d1b\"><\/div>\n<p>This messaging is destroying generations of women who have tied their\u200c self-worth and happiness to their careers instead of \u201cpatriarchal\u201d marriage and caregiving.<\/p>\n<p>In reality,\u200c human biology is geared toward love and children. The\u200b most important thing for both \u2064men\u200d and women to do\u200d in their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/to-the-angry-tiktok-feminists-try-applying-some-lip-gloss\/\" title=\"To Angry TikTok Feminists: Give Lip Gloss a Try\">young adult years<\/a> is to focus on\u2062 their love \u2064life. Discouraging women (and men) \u2063from doing so is evil.

However, Disney\u2019s retelling \u200cof \u201cSnow White\u201d is destructive on\u2064 an even deeper level.<\/p>\n<p>Gerwig doesn\u2019t like the story of Snow White; she\u2063 hates it. But \u200cshe\u2064 has decided to <em>use <\/em>it\u200d instead\u2063 of outright erasing it. Gerwig is attempting to deconstruct \u2063the\u2064 story \u2064and tell it \u2062in woke terms to erase its original, intended \u2063message.<\/p>\n<p>In \u2064this way, \u200dDisney\u2019s upcoming live-action is akin to the Black Lives Matter rioters tearing down statues of the founding fathers\u200b or vandalizing Plymouth Rock. For\u200b cultural Marxism to take root in the West, our \u200dculture,\u200d history, and Christian values must \u2062either be\u2063 eradicated or\u200d repurposed to promote leftist movements \u200clike feminism and other forms of identity politics.<\/p>\n<p>Since tearing \u2062down a statue is such a literal representation of \u200dthe \u200dleft\u2019s goals, it\u2019s been easier for people to condemn. However,\u200d reimagining\u2063 and warping classic stories is more difficult. Proponents of feminist\u200b \u201cSnow White\u201d will accuse its critics \u2063of being antiquated, \u2063anti-woman, and anti-diversity.<\/p>\n<p>Yet\u200d preserving the integrity of Western folklore couldn\u2019t be more crucial. Myths and legends build and expand on one another, creating a connecting web of shared \u200dculture.\u200b The \u200dstory of Snow White has roots in the ancient Greek\u200b story of\u200d Echo and Narcissus\u2062 and the biblical stories\u2062 of Cain and Abel and The Fall of Man. This\u200b means the left\u2019s perversion \u200bof\u200d classic tales is an attack\u200d on the very essence of Western culture\u2062 and values.<\/p>\n<p>Now this isn\u2019t to say that there is no\u2063 room for new stories and reinterpretations\u2063 \u2014 not at all. J.R.R. Tolkien\u2019s \u200c\u201cThe \u2064Lord of the Rings\u201d draws from a plethora of classic stories to create\u200b something\u200c entirely new and\u2062 beautiful. The difference is that Tolkien, who \u200crevered ancient\u2064 myths\u200c and English \u2062literature, <em>added<\/em> to the Western tradition; Gerwig \u200cwants to destroy\u200b and replace them with something entirely foreign and countercultural.<\/p>\n<p>As a \u2062wise former professor of mine once <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dragoncommonroom.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">told<\/a> me, \u201cGood stories challenge us,\u201d \u201cgive us direction \u200dand heroes to imitate,\u201d \u201creveal truths about ourselves \u2064that we\u2062 otherwise cannot see,\u201d \u201cawaken the Christian\u2063 imagination,\u201d\u200c and \u201ctransform the soul.\u201d The great Western stories are\u2062 intrinsically tied \u200dto Christianity \u2014 the core of our civilization. This is why the fight to preserve folklore, promote contemporary storytellers with an appreciation\u200c for \u200dthe past, and oppose the likes of Gerwig \u2062has \u200dnever been more \u2063imperative.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-363177e34fcebba618b101e5aea8341e fdrlst__b89e9-after-post-content\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-363177e34fcebba618b101e5aea8341e\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Disney&#8217;s new live-action version of &#8220;Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,&#8221; directed by Greta Gerwig, aims to modernize the beloved classic.
