The Right’s Disney Freakout
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/01/opin ... y-gay.html
I think it's less a "Disney" freakout than a freakout over LGBT, but otherwise she nailed it. But I suppose it would suit this homophobic trope they're playing into of schools and teachers supposedly "brainwashing" children to be gay to insinuate the Disney company and its products are also brainwashing children to be gay. These people are f***ing sick. And it's sort of funny considering it's the same state that would like to perform pedophile-esque genital checks on children in locker rooms.

I say good, less money from Disney has helped their evil that way.

Good luck trying to erase LGBT from the entertainment industry and still having movies that are worth a damn. Hopefully conservatives will end up helping us get our first LGBT protagonist finally!

Re: LGBT Disney
Look, Florida is sinking into the ocean. The soil is literally degrading. Miami is expected to be gone within a few decades.
It’s best to just let it be. Close down all operations. Let’s see how they do without the Disneyworld money.

Florida will be fine. It’s a great state.
Where do you think Disney can move where there’s no opposition to their anti- Parental Rights in Education stance?

Re: LGBT Disney
This was inevitable with Florida becoming a far right state. Disney World was never going to be safe there long-term with the kind of politics that are so antithetical to anything right at the helm; it was only a matter of time before they targeted Disney. They should take those jobs, tourism, and money to a state worthy of it. Anyway, saw this a week ago:

Out of the South? I'm guessing most states northward are much less likely to elect the more extreme types pushing the Don't Say Gay bills or calling teachers, LGBT individuals, the Disney company "pedophiles" and "groomers" for merely existing.carolinakid wrote:Florida will be fine.

Re: LGBT Disney
Maybe keep Disneyland as the sole US park and move the World to Puerto Rico or Central/South America where the weather would allow year round operation and lots of outdoor activity. Outside of Southern California or Florida I think weather would be an issue.

Re: LGBT Disney
Why do people entertain the notion that Disney will simply pack up it's bags and rebuild all their parks and properties somewhere else?! Do you have any idea how much such an operation would cost and how long it would take to plan and construct?! By the time that is done DeSantis will long be voted out and a forgotten blip in history, as all evil eventually is! Disney will stick to their guns and sue his ass into oblivion!
ps: It's telling that DeSantis would rather plunge his constituents into insurmountable debt and misery rather then even so much as SAY the word Gay! He needs to get his priorities straight and step into the 21st century instead of moving back towards the Middle Ages!

Another one who hasn’t read the bill and therefore mischaracterizes what it actually does.

Re: LGBT Disney
I've been partly saying that in jest. But PatrickvD is right that climate change is going to seriously impact Florida the next decade. Perhaps that on top of this might give them reason to consider a possible transfer to another state; or, rather, building new elsewhere and shutting that one down.robster16 wrote:Why do people entertain the notion that Disney will simply pack up it's bags and rebuild all their parks and properties somewhere else?!

Deadline is reporting that the removal of Disney World's special district status will cost Disney hundreds of millions of dollars. Man, Chapek can't catch a break.

Colorado's governor is saying Disney can move there:

And it's going to cost FL taxpayers millions of dollars by getting rid of Reedy Creek...(since Disney used to pay for the things needed)...

If WDW moves to Colorado then Disneyland really WILL become a locals’ park.

Re: LGBT Disney
Agreed. I was saying it in comedic way but I’m serious, Florida is at risk of sinking. This is preventable but Florida politicians are rejecting to act now to restore soil or build infrastructure that could protect it. We’re going to witness a disaster on the scale of Katrina but WAY worse within the next ten years.Disney's Divinity wrote:I've been partly saying that in jest.

Many countries are taking precautions. Indonesia is moving its capital, The Netherlands is building continuously to live with rising sea levels… but Florida is busy bullying gay children.
Miami will sink. That fate has been sealed. Disney would be wise to move now or risk greater financial loss later.

Re: LGBT Disney
Why is Disney backing teacher led discussions on sexual orientation and transgenderism among 5-8 year olds? This is sick. I support Parental Rights in Education! Read the bill, not the deliberate misinformation.
I am queer and this is not the appropriate age for these discussions.

Re: LGBT Disney
I'm not sure why a topic about LGBT is being turned into a space for homophobic talking points instead. Stumping for the bill while being gay--or masquerading as gay, wouldn't surprise me--says something about you, sure, but it doesn't make the bill and its intentions any less reprehensible.
Anyway, it's funny for the same people who bemoan "wokeness" and Cancel Culture to be fine with Republicans punishing and silencing disagreement as here. They're attempting to cancel Disney, of course, but Disney is too big to be cancelled, and it won't happen because of homophobes and fearmongers, that's for sure. Disney learned those types ain't watching their content a long time ago, back in the '90s, I expect. If anything, they're probably propelling them into making more LGBT characters.

Re: LGBT Disney
Sorry to disappoint you, but the queer community is not monolithic in its political views, nor does it embrace groupthink. The queer community I belong to welcomes a diverse range of opinions.
Funny how some folks who become unhinged at “Republicans trying to cancel Disney” are perfectly at peace with “woke” people’s unsuccessful attempts to cancel Chick-fil-A and other corporations whose views they disagree with.

Re: LGBT Disney
No, the LGBT community isn't a monolith--there are even LGBT who don't believe in same-sex marriage being a right. So what? Now you're pro-Chick-Fil-A. There are always women against women's rights, too, for example, whether it was the right to vote, the right to own property, the right to control their own bodies, etc.; that's the state of the world, some people are ready and willing to eat their own.
