Doesn't that kinda make Scar correct in his dismissal of Mufasa and Simba and make him the good guy? And yes I'm aware some societies had adoptable heirs, like the Roman emperors.

To someone who is reasonable this would make sense. But the logic here seems like reality's villains are self-identifying with fake villains. Instead of Scar being a vengeful, ambitious, and resentful brother; he can be seen as the privileged, entitled, elitist replaced by a foreigner, who never learned to accept his place as someone who is innately inferior due to his privilege. So instead of accepting his inferiority and apologizing to his betters for being born in the wrong class, he gets resentful, justifying his eventual death as an outsider literally replaces him and his bloodline.
And knowing Hollywood, that could be the exact message they want to convey. There really is no goddamn end to this globalist malarkey, is there?
Totalitarian ideologies have no end, comrade.
