Cinderella is now reviled because she is so kind-hearted.
With values like these, no wonder My Little Pony would be seen as "ew, no"

They are symptoms of a disease the world imagines is incurable. But the Cure has already been effected, and in God's time (beyond the veil of this world) they will not only be remedied but, it appears, also forgotten.

SPOILER: Highlight text to read: I could relate to his problems and compassion, even as he killed his first victim. And I think the point of the show was that the person he was was gradually replaced by a person i couldn't relate to, a person capable of true evil. That was some masterful writing and direction. And it is one of the few shows -- unlike Lost, Dexter, or even Twin Peaks, that didn't "break faith" with its viewers. Many anime break faith as well.

I'm pretty sure Cinderella is reviled because Disney has been releasing dumb sequels including the most recent one which involves time-travel. I've never heard of anyone saying "Cinderella is dumb because she's too nice!"
Also the Brothers Grimm version of Cinderella was kinda dark, when the prince and Cinderella got married, birds came and pecked out the eyes of the stepsisters and made them blind. :V

Yeah no child sex slavery is not beautiful, it is ugly and horrifying.
