Very much so, but its a good example of fakeness/insincerity that matches the topic.

Maybe in the sense that Fascist Italy or Nazi Germany would be a good example of "European politics".

The OP was making a general observation about the United States as a whole. Picking an extreme example like Disney is a Hasty Generalization fallacy.

I was trying to suggest that those stores, here in Europe, have greeters and those greeters are the very epitome of fakeness - which the parent was referring to.

I suspect the confusion comes because people assumed I meant Disney stores in the states.
