Where did this idea of the children in "it's a small world" being dolls come from? It makes no sense to me. The whole premise is that it is the children of the world singing a prayer for peace. In the tableau they have created we see some of their toys being used as part of the sets.-If you make a doll through the website, it'll add $1 to the UNICEF fund.
So if nothing else, do that. Make Disney pay up.
My doll's name is Barf.
That shirt seriously makes me want to ding my head off a brick wall.
Who came up with that? I still. I cant. Why on earth would anyone use "conquer" regarding a ride that's suppose to be about anything but?
No. Just... no.
I assume sarcasm?
It's one of the more amusing shirts Disney has put out there in recent years.That shirt seriously makes me want to ding my head off a brick wall.

No. Just... no.
It is a term associated with war juxtaposed with a call for peace. "It's a small world" is one of the most serious of Disney's attractions and that seriousness should be respected by Disney.
The conceit of the attraction from what I understand it now is that it's a gigantic children's art project about world peace. And the figures have been referred to as dolls for years now and the ride in general is full of a toy aesthetic.
A project in which the children partake. As I said, there are elements clearly toys and have a different design than the children.
And the children generally share a basic mold like dolls.
I understand the message of the attraction but I think you're taking it a bit too seriously. It's a Small World has a place in culture that is lovingly mocked, Disney is doing so with this shirt.
Before the uproar, the version at Hong Kong Disneyland was described as a game of hide and seek. You're supposed to seek them out. If they were truly intended to not distract they'd have no purpose and not be there.
