I'm not sure I understand your reasoning as to why because Russia has a Theme Park POTC should not get this roumored upgrade but thats ok. LOL!

We can segregate people, relegate women to a place of subordination, and make sure plenty of people get diseases we can't cure. You've managed to take a conversation about changes to A THEME PARK RIDE and make it into some kind of nationalistic, Western-centered, religious statement, while managing to compare Pirates of the Caribbean to, excuse me, the Mona Lisa? (which, by the way, was not created by an American). I'm an absolute Disney FANATIC, but I still don't get this leap.

You should really consider broadening your horizons. You'd be surprise how it might alter you perspective on things. I sincerely mean this. "Every square inch of Disneyland is an antique." Clearly we all have differing views on what Disneyland is and/or supposed to be.
