I just realized there’s an extra layer of irony to it as the person who made the film, Don Bluth, also made An American Tail. In that film, a pogrom by the tsar-led Cossacks is a major plot point as it’s what drives the protagonist’s family out of Russia and to the US. So the man couldn’t even keep it straight if the Romanovs were blood thirsty antisemites or lovable fairy tale nobles.
revolutionaryth0t did a good video getting mad at/debunking all the ahistorical nonsense in that
