Walt Disney’s alleged antisemitism is also referenced[26] by having the universe’s occupants attack the Disney version of Mort Goldman when he enters a room, brutally beating him to death off-screen.

It’s because they’re in a Disney universe, and Walt Disney was famously anti-Semitic. So it’s a dig at Walt Disney. (Already pretty much answered with the Wiki quote, but I thought I’d chime in anyway because I love this episode.)
