Worst of Social Justice

It'd be more convincing if she said "THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT!"

As someone who's seen both these movies, this site can fuck right off.  Also, according to one of the comments, Disney's Frozen had more triggers attached to it than A Serbian Film.

...historically inaccurate......WHAT THE FUCK?

It's a god damn fantasy movie, not set in the real world.

Ironbite-how the hell can it be historically inaccurate if it NEVER HAPPENED!?

[Igor]

Out of curiosity, what site is that?

[Commissar Kaz]

How in the Warp is Frozen ableist?

[TheUnknown]

Out of curiosity, what site is that?

Here's the site.  And, oh my god, the comments about Frozen:

Silencing:

if you intend to show someone with a mental illness or someone whos lgbtq+ you should actually put in the effort instead of making a "ooo spooky frozen heart" metaphor

Dubious Consent:

I wouldn't even call it dubious, I'd call it non-existent. Thanks, trolls, let's unwillingly marry the engaged girl to someone else.

I have only ever seen dubious consent used in reference to sex.

Abusive Relationship:

Kristoff constantly berates Anna throughout the movie, mainly about falling in love in one day, yet ends up as her love interest in the end. He does not feel remorse.

Yes, how dare he have the audacity to point out that "falling in love" and marrying a guy you just met is a stupid idea.

Ableism:

the way they dealt with anxiety was awful and disney should consider other types of anxiety disorders other than social anxiety before they assume everyone with it is like elsa and gets over it with "loooooooove" because if i saw this when i was like 8 it wouldve fucked me up

the potential metaphorical mental illness isnt handled really well in the end

"Potential metaphorical mental illness"

"Potential metaphorical mental illness"

"Potential metaphorical mental illness"

They're bitching about something they're not even sure is really there.

Historically Innacurate [sic]:

This movie is both racist AND historically inaccurate. While PoC erasure does stem from racism, erasure has also grown too big of a specific beast to shove purely under the Racism umbrella. Inaccuracy also requires huge amounts of complacency and dismissal. Two things which can be triggering. ...Two things which can be seen even in the (triggering in and of themselves) comments here. (Seriously folks, policing other people's triggers, and flippantly referencing sexual assault? Not okay.)

I'd also like to point out that there seems to be no actual system on this site, meaning that users don't choose triggers from a list, they just type them in themselves.  So Frozen ends up with "parental death" and "death of a parent" as two separate triggers.

[Igor]

...lol, Psycho only has 10 triggers. So genuinely terrifying horror films are less potentially traumatizing than a kids movie, right.

[Art Vandelay]

What exactly would you expect from a site called Movie Triggers?! It'd be a shock if it were anything other than a bunch of social justice warrior wank.

In theory, it's genuinely useful for people that are actually triggered and don't know what a movie will trigger before they see it.  (Stuff like spousal or parental abuse, for instance, can be very triggering to someone who has survived it)

In practice, however, it's become a platform for SJW preaching.  Pity.

....that still doesn't explain how the movie is historically inaccurate.

Ironbite-like...at all.

[Askold]

On one hand I admit that a less scary film could have more DIFFERENT triggers than a horror film. If the horror film has triggering events like death and jumpscare etc. but those things are repeatedly it will not have several trigger warnings. Meanwhile a family movie with a bigger variety of triggers (even if these are less severe. I mean "kids" might be a trigger to someone, but not a common cause to be afraid of if compared to "high impact violent rape scene" for example.)

Still, on this occasion many of those triggers for Frozen seem silly and I bet I could think of more triggering features than three from the other Frozen.

I think it basically boils down to "not 100% faithful to Sami culture, therefore racist and inaccurate".

I think it was the whole "They're not brown therefore whitewashing"

Except... Sami aren't just one skin color, and in fact many of them look white.  You know, winter environment and adaptation and all that.

BECAUSE TUMBLR DEMISEXUAL WHITE GIRLS SAY SO THAT WHY! TUMBLR SMASH PUNY FACTS!

...Now I feel sorry for the Hulk. He exhibits more logic daily than these clowns.

[Alehksunos]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who jokingly correlates Frozen (2010) with Frozen (2013).

Also, those triggers are so stupid I can't even read these without... cringing.
