The Donald Duck article is about how Disney created a work where its ideology is not hidden but embraced. Each world is a concept and, due to the approach it takes in its presentation, (through entertainment avenues (comics, movies, etc)) it comes off as children's entertainment to one who does not analyze it.
The authors' provide the example that the characters have no fathers or sons; only uncles and cousins. They say that with no chance for procreation (having only uncles as the heads bypasses the question of sexuality) for anyone, "reality is unchanging."
Disney, over the years, seems to have embraced this formula to the point of parody as this clip from the Onion News Network shows.
