A fairy tale that has been rewritten or portrayed differently than its original moral of the story in order to suit someone else's political agenda as propaganda. An example would be when Adolf Hitler rewrote “Little Red Riding Hood” to be antisemitic propaganda. Another example would be social justice warriors forcing Disney and other companies to portray characters as people of color or LGBTQ when they were never there originally in order to promote "diversity" in such an artificially forced manner. Spinoffs such as “Wicked” are also considered toxic fairy tales as they deviate from the allegorical messages of the original fictions.
