I think the main "point" of Snow White, surely, is that it doesn't matter how physically beautiful the Queen is, she will never be as "fair and wonderful" as Snow White because Snow White is also "fair in her spirit" while the Evil Queen is... well... "evil"... or rather, a narcissist. Which makes her "lesser" no matter what she does. Hence her frustration.

The thread of the story is not, as some might have us believe, about someone who is "extremely caucasian" .

…I’d like to think that she wasn’t always a narcissist…and that she had good qualities as well but she sadly became a victim of her vanity…maybe she didn’t have enough self belief to realise that beauty wasn’t just on the surface and wasn’t confident enough to allow for many equal beauties and not just one that was ‘the most fair…’…although, she does seem like a confident person tbh……we can never tell with these things, though…they can be very deceiving…

Perhaps, the mirror telling her these things every day twisted her psychology, making her think it was the most important thing anyone could be... ... "YOU'RE the best" said the mirror every day... and then one day, it said "Nah this girl YOUNG ENOUGH TO BE MY DAUGHTER is better looking than you actually" and she just snapped.

The true villain of Snow White is the mirror itself... representing intrusive subconscious vanity, deep-rooted insecurity, and the battle of ego vs aging?

We're so deep, Ammi.

…yeah, I do think that the mirror has some responsibility as well…because it encouraged that ‘believing your own hype…’…thing, which can lead to being a very dangerous thing and the evil queen story displays that perfectly…?…the mirror was maybe a bit like a social media platform that carried fake news in telling her that she was the fairest…and then when she realised the fairness of it and that she wasn’t, well….she just kind of flipped and became the most hateful person …and the target of her hate being Snow White, the new up and coming influencer…and actually her beauty wasn’t fake news, it was real…and yeah, the evil queen was triggered, though…and there’s no stopping a triggered evil queen who believed her own hype…?….

…yeah man, so deep, man….

They say at the end, "They all lived happily ever after..." ... but actually ... 30 years later, Snow White has fallen into exactly the same trap as the Evil Queen, there's a new kid on the block, and the Prince (now the King) has a WhatsApp full of dick pic exchanges with 20 year old boys .

…I guess this is why it’s one of those tales as old as time as the cycle continues…different time/different fairest of the land young lady…same evil witch in the end, though…it’s the curse of Disney…

I can't wait for the prequel Disney+ series where we find out that the Evil Queen was once a fresh-faced and idealistic young princess just looking for her own prince -- before being corrupted by the manipulative mirror demon.

Honestly Ammi, Disney should just hire us.
