They had an aughfull lot of racist and non PC content back in the day. Wheres the disclaimers on that stuff, or is it just going to stay locked away in the disney vault forever and just pretend like it never happened?
only to the usa population. most of that stuff gets released to the rest of the world with no problems.
you can even see Song of the South outside of the USA just never mention you saw it or you will be attacked.

I don't see why I would be attacked outside of the US for watching a US film, unless that "outside of the US" is somewhere in North Korea. But thanks for the watching tip anyway -- now I'm interested what the fuss is about.
You can see it in the US, it's on Archive.Org for free. Also if you search Amazon for it you will find the paperback version and some figurines from the movie on sale.
I've noticed there are lots of rumours about stuff being banned that is actually readily available. In the UK we had a show called Love Thy Neighbour, the basic plot of which is that a racist white guy lives next to a black couple and says all sorts of extremely racist stuff. There are persistent rumours that it has been banned, along with car
I would say deliberately blocking a product for sale and viewing while maintaining copyright/trademark rights so that no one else is allowed to display the product is close enough to a ban that we are merely debating semantics.

When we say banned, we mean by the content creators. Unless you are saying that Disney uploaded it to Archive.org.
The fact that you cannot watch it on Disney+ or purchase it speaks to the ban.
