Mary Poppins wasn’t flirting with black face! It was soot in their faces from being a chimney!!! Stopped spreading racism claims on non racist things like this!!!

People who are so ignorant as to be offended by such scenes should never watch TV or movies. They are obviously incapable of rational thought or discernment. https://t.co/NGEGnLyhoh

Come on now. Leave Mary Poppins out of this! Chimney sweeps in London DID have coal dust on their faces. Didn't make them (or Mary, for that matter) racist... (No, I do NOT defend *blackface* otherwise)

Oh piss off! Honestly, Dr Pollack needs a kick in the bollocks. What a tit! How can a disney film be branded as racist? You cant say, do or watch anything nowdays without someones uncles brothers neighbours goldfish getting offended. What a mess 🙄 #marypoppins https://t.co/lvhv4mhleE
