Berkeley Breathed, the creator of the comic strip Bloom County, characterized the issue of people becoming offended by perceived insults to their culture as “offense sensitivity”.  This condition is manifested by those who probe beyond the surface meaning of a story to uncover what they believe to be a hidden message that takes aim at a particular cultural identity.  Their perception leads us to believe some misdeed has been done to insult a particular ethnicity or belief system.  What they fail to understand or take into account is that it is just a story.  I don’t believe Disney’s intent was to deride a culture.  If anything, it celebrates it even if they are making money.  And aren’t they in business to entertain?  Guess they did that unintentionally by generating a controversy.  Shouldn’t the story Disney portrays be seen as an introduction to Polynesian culture?  Seems like there are an awful lot of folks eager to criticize at any opportunity.
