Kids care because parents care, as with any Disney film that is as old as Fantasia is.
And history suggests that Disney would get a major PR headache if they released it uncensored. Just look at the broo-ha-ha over the "good teenagers take off their clothes" sound garble (that never actually said that) on Aladdin as how certain factions out there see an opportunity for stirring up the zealots with a big juicy target that the Disney corporation presents. And if that will hurt their image Disney will stay far, far away. Song of the South is being held back not for its content, but for its perceived promotion (falsely) that it promotes racist sentiments. Truth doesn't matter here. It doesn't help Fantasia that, unlike Song of the South, the stereotypes in the character of Sunflower are legitimately inappropriate.
