The act of buying a doll for a child - And the fucking weirdos who have hangups over plastic

With the new Aladdin movie there's now a flood of jasmine dolls and none of them look screen accurate. This is apparently intentional because Jasmine is considered the most visually provocative out of all the Disney princesses.

A good chunk of the stock just isn't selling. They've either given the dolls sculpted on clothes(which hampers playing due to how girls like to dress up their dolls) or made them look nothing like the either of movies depictions, which frustrates children because they want what they view as the authentic definitive version.

There's always been weird issues surrounding toy dolls. Boys tend to play with action figures very differently, they're usually fighting or are toys that don't resemble humans at all, basically people tend to leave them alone until someone gets maimed or killed by local law enforcement. But toy dolls for girls have a laundry list of hang ups from assorted people and groups. Girls will play with dolls and will almost always act out situations that are closer to real life, mimicking things like socializing, shopping, and other normal every day activities. Basically whats considered positive and constructive human behavior.

It makes me wonder if this is one of the reasons why they're trying to fag up toy dolls. Since girls engage in more social playtime it might make people feel weird that they're treating plastic objects as real people, like there's something wrong with that sort of sincerity since the toy can't return the kindness.

There's also the laundry list of complaints about supposed body issues which in turn have made companies turn out some really fugly looking dolls by trying to emulate 'real women".

They also gave Bo Peep from toy story 4 mom jeans because she's a strong brave woman who don't need no man so she's not allowed to wear a dress.

So basically Disney fucked the pooch again by listening to the whining of millennial hipsters * aka going "woke" * and now stores are stuck again with unsellable merchandise because shocker little girls like being pretty princesses despite the whinging of fourth wave feminists.

Is that the gist of it?

I think the live action movies of Disney are too toxic for young girls as they're forcing the princesses to wear corsets. ;)
At the end of the day a doll is a doll and "woke" parents should stick to giving them plushies.

I recently noticed that most youtubers get by with a simple formula:

1. Find something relatively interesting that already exists.
2. Tell the right people about it.

Videogame longplays, lore videos, product reviews of all stripes - All those youtubers are doing is recontextualizing old shit for a new audience. Zoomers might not know about the CDC experiments at Plum Island or the sleek unibody design ethos of the VW Kharmann Ghia, but those two topics are interesting enough to be repackaged as voiceover slideshow clickbait videos that earn $$$. The trick of it is in the presentation. The packaging, if you will.

That's what marketers and salespeople do as well - They take something that exists and find a niche for it. One of the major ways that SocJus got traction in the first place was an inside job. Companies hired recent uni graduates with stellar degrees from respected institutions without knowing they'd been so thoroughly indoctrinated by their professors. Learning was still an unassailable human tradition at that point. No one thought those new hires would be deliberately telling those companies - en masse - that the future was 'woke' and changes would have to be made. A viable market for propagandized shit was promised but never materialized, leaving us with pic related.

Unsalable toys are just one more end result of long term cultural marxist infiltration at all levels of the pop culture engine. Think about Rose Tico.
