Very good, I only posted a fraction of the thread.....

Why they’re doing it: This may be the best explanation for Disney’s self-destruction

Why are they doing it? That’s the logical question that any normal human being would have as they watch these interviews with the stars of Disney’s upcoming live-action Snow White.

VIDEOS AT LINK..................

This is the kind of stuff that actually makes me worry about the future of our friends at The Babylon Bee. Those actual, real-life, serious interviews are almost identical to the kind of scripts satirists would write in an effort to parody progressives’ absurd obsession with wokeness and identity politics. I know it’s becoming cliché, but there is a sector of progressivism that is now beyond parody. (Of course, now that I think about it, as bad as this may be for the Bee folks, I suppose it is the ultimate job security for those of us at Not the Bee).

So anyway, why would they do it? I don’t care how impenetrable your echo chamber may be, there’s no way that someone in the Disney boardroom is unaware of how all this plays in the general population. They see the box office numbers, they peruse social media, they notice the dropping park attendance. Someone there, and probably more than a few someones if not a majority, have noticed that the company’s core demographic - families - may have reached a tolerance tipping point where they say, “we have better options.”

But if they know all this, then why don’t they course correct?

A conservative preacher named Michael Clary recently offered his best guess, and after reading it, this may be the most thoughtful, thorough, and reasonable explanation I’ve seen. Make sure to read the whole thing:

It’s clear at this point that Disney has dug themselves a hole they can’t get out of.

This interview is for the upcoming “Snow White” - but with a “modern edge.” Wow. Innovative.

The young actress says…

“It’s no longer 1937” (cuz we’re so much better than they were!)

“She’s not gonna be saved by the prince” (yeah, who needs a man to save her?)

“She’s not gonna be dreaming about true love” (good! Girls hate that crap these days! This isn’t 1937! Girls don’t want to fall in love! Gross!)

“She’s dreaming about becoming the leader she knows she can be” (that’s the ticket! All girls dream about these days is leadership!)

Disney has to know this message wont sell, but they can’t turn back now. They’re still benefiting from the trust they’d accumulated back when they cared about their audiences and made decent films. But that time is running out.

Disney corp is be-clowning itself with this kind of propaganda. They’re a joke. Their credibility with their target audience isn’t any better than Bud Lite. They’re a progressive propaganda machine and every family knows it.

But they can’t stop doing it. Their brand identity requires them to continue creating soulless garbage to stay in the good graces of LGBTQ activists who are now running the show.

Families aren’t buying it. Disney was once associated with wholesome, family entertainment.

IMO, somebody with deep pockets is funding all these businesses that deserve to crash and burn.

That’s just so sad.
Speaking to the Lavender Mafia:
Little kids don’t have any idea of what that LBGTFU stuff is all about!
Give them back their childhood!
Set good examples for living!
Explain to them how their body is beginning to change
when it STARTS to change, not before, and tell them WHY!
You’re trying to teach them things that their young minds cannot grasp yet. More over, they don’t care!

Just stop it!
Someday you will look around at all the stuff you have destroyed as it falls down around you into a smoking ruin
and wonder where it all went wrong!
Look in the mirror!

You should not tear things like good movies apart when you don’t have the imagination or intelligence to make movies of your own!
Just STOP IT!
