Last year, I reported on Disney’s critical race theory–based diversity program, which taught employees that American was founded on “systemic racism,” separated minorities into racially segregated “affinity groups,” and encouraged white employees to complete a “white privilege checklist.” Now, I have obtained exclusive video from inside Disney that outlines its campaign to embed left-wing sexual politics into its children’s programming and entertainment facilities.
In the wake of Florida’s Parental Rights in Education legislation, which prevents public schools from promoting gender ideology in kindergarten through third grade but which critics call the “Don’t Say Gay” bill, Disney executives organized an all-hands meeting, called the “Reimagine Tomorrow Conversation Series,” and pledged to mobilize the entire corporation in service of the “LGBTQIA+ community.” Executives recruited the company’s most intersectional employees, including a “black, queer, and trans person,” a “bi-romantic asexual,” and “the mother [of] one transgender child and one pansexual child,” and announced ambitious new initiatives—seeking to change everything from gender pronouns at the company’s theme parks to the sexual orientation of background characters in the company’s films.
In a featured presentation at the meeting, executive producer Latoya Raveneau laid out Disney’s ideology in blunt terms. She said her team was implementing a “not-at-all-secret gay agenda” and regularly “adding queerness” to children’s programming. Another speaker, production coordinator Allen Martsch, said his team has created a “tracker” to ensure that they are creating enough “canonical trans characters, canonical asexual characters, [and] canonical bisexual characters.” Corporate president Karey Burke said she supported having “many, many, many LGBTQIA characters in our stories” and reaffirmed the company’s pledge to make at least 50 percent of its on-screen characters sexual and racial minorities.
The ideological campaign also extended to the company’s theme parks in Anaheim and Orlando. As diversity and inclusion manager Vivian Ware explained, Disney made the decision last year to eliminate all mentions of “ladies,” “gentlemen,” “boys,” and “girls” in order to create “that magical moment” for children who do not identify with traditional gender roles. “We don’t want to just assume because someone might be, in our interpretation, presenting as female, that they may not want to be called ‘princess,’” Ware said. By eliminating “gendered greetings,” Disney believes, the company can help make it “magical and memorable for everyone.”
Finally, Disney hosted Nadine Smith, the executive director of a pressure group called Equality Florida, who told employees that Governor Ron DeSantis and his press secretary, Christina Pushaw, wanted to “erase you,” “criminalize your existence,” and “take your kids”—a wild conspiracy theory with no basis in fact. The company’s executives threw their full weight behind Equality Florida’s effort, promising to use its significant political and financial resources to repeal the Parental Rights in Education law and the Stop W.O.K.E. Act, which prohibits public and private institutions from racialist discrimination and abuse in classrooms and the workplace.
Last year, after my report on Disney’s critical race theory training program, Disney quickly deleted it from the company’s internal servers. But executives did not abandon identity politics. In fact, they added another component—gender ideology—and ramped it up. Executives have empowered activists within the company and now seem unable to resist their demands. Observers should watch Disney closely in the coming years. However the story ends, the company looks like a case study in ideological capture.
Disney has been Evil for a long time.
I remember back in the late 60s they are singing
“it’s a Small World, after all”
Disney has been Grooming Kids for many years
Interested? Try they want to molest your kids!
Just stop watching Disney films or going to their parked. Hit them hard where it matters: In their pockets.
To paraphrase Lenin: your kids may not be interested in Disney, but Disney is interested in your kids.
Waiting to see Mickey with breasts and a trouser bulge.
Doesn’t this company realize the damage they are doing to their brand? They want to make half the characters gay? Then their audience will dry up. Here (except some urban hipster hotbeds) and probably much of Latin America. The movies will likely be outright banned in China, Russia (if they show there) and the Muslim world. Just stupid.
Embracing the gaywad agenda leads to financial collapse of a business. They know it. This is the socialist way: You rob everyone around you, and then when you realize that’s all socialism is - robbery - you destroy yourself and say it was for a higher purpose. They know there won’t be any profit out of this! They are being social justice freaks. (Likely they are plumping up their bug-out bags with lots of cashier’s checks and gold coins.)
Look at the bright side: You don’t have to feel the least bit guilty about working towards their destruction. Let ‘em have it!
My kids want to go to Disneyworld SO BAD. Talk me out of going FEB 2023 or NOV 2023.
disney is interested in your kids and not in a good way
disney is the creepy uncle just like joe
Sold all my DIS crap stock today.
So the “mother”? Of a trans and pansexual kid is spouting this crap. I submit that she is a sh** mother. Her comments alone should warrant removal of the kids from her custody. If the dad is in the picture, which I doubt, he’s also as terrible.
Ruin the innocence of our young children at all costs.
I remember back in the the late 90s when Paul Allen built the experience music center, they made a big deal about how they were going to gather all the biometric data they could, track each person through the museum, cameras to see how long you looked at each item, testing the beginnings of facial recognition, etc.
A few years later I read an article where Disney was partnering with Microsoft to do the same thing. (unfortunately I cannot seem to find it easily)
Disney is now a place where the perverted fantasy of Sting lives....
Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I’ll be watching you.
Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I’ll be watching you.
Oh can’t you see
You belong to me?
There is one word for this — GROOMING.
Disney wants to become a company that GROOMS your kids to question their gender.
Very few Americans pay attention to Disney comments like this, and certainly, MSM isn't widely reporting it.
It certainly does show the complete uniformity of corporate media/entertainment woke globohomo ideology. They can't imagine anything outside their own bubble.
I recently read about a lifeguard and others who were arrested in a human trafficking thing in Orlando. Disney is absolute evil.
They wanna turn Disneyland into “Salo:120 Days of Sodom”.
