Uh oh. Disney better close down Disney World immediately to protest this horrible development. After all, isn’t a “clear conscience worth a few bucks” ?

Why are there no transgender characters in Disney movies?

Obvious transphobia, going back decades. Stop the madness.

This is just Disney checking a box. They were being hounded by the usual left-wing morons thinking that Disney would be the one who would make DeSantis fold. Disney never wanted to get involved in this issue and even said so as much.

Now they can go back to the left-wingers and said they tried, give a blanket statement that they support gays/trans, blah blah. Then they'll go back to making craploads full of money.

It is long past time for antitrust laws to be used to break up the big media companies, tech companies, and multinational corporations allied with big government and using their economic power to further the globalist agenda at the expense of the American middle class.

Many competitors in an industry result in lower prices for consumers and innovation as companies seek to differentiate themselves. Smaller companies have fewer resources to buy off politicians.

If Disney had honor, character, and believes in their BS, then close up shop and withdraw from Florida entirely.

Except that did not seem to be the case of the Standard Oil Trust

Lake BuenaVista is nearby, and not terribly deep.

“One, if this leftwing corporate stooge can’t be bothered to actually read the bill,”

Oh, they know exactly what is in it. The problem to them is that they believe 5-7 year olds SHOULD be taught about it. They want to get to them before puberty. The homos want to be first in the door to taint their innocent minds.

Once the Standard Oil Trust was broken up there was significantly mor competition in the oil industry.

Well, Mr. Chapek needn’t worry. It’s not as though I plan to set foot in his parks until he gets his corporate scum head straight, anyhow.

Too late. I'm not riding his dumb monorails until he reverses his position and says he's sorry to all parents of small children.

I don't think Disney believed in it or else they would have came out with a statement immediately denouncing it while the bill was still being debated in the FL legislature.

This was more of an "awright, awright leftists...we'll send DeSantis a letter sheesh" kind of thing.

Because there's no way in Hell Disney is going to alienate the thousands of families that visit monthly. And they're not going to pull out of FL. They are not that woke.

Disney has celebrated Gay Days for years.......
......Universal is the better park, although I’m not saying any of them are perfect
