It’s time to stop viewing Disney as a family-friendly company
American Thinker ^ | 03/22/2022 | Andrea Widburg

I was raised on Disney fare and I let my children (now grown) watch Disney material. In the years after WWII and before wokeism struck, Disney produced movies and TV shows that fit squarely within traditional, family-friendly values. The material may not have been elevating or deep, but it was fun without being offensive. That Disney is long gone. The latest sign of Disney’s surrender to the hard left occurred when Disney’s CEO, Bob Chapek, apologized to radicalized workers for not publicly opposing a Florida bill to ban teachers from Kindergarteners through third-graders about gender and sexual identity.

From the Daily Mail:

Embattled Disney CEO Bob Chapek told employees during a virtual town hall Monday that he regretted not taking a public stance against Florida‘s controversial ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill.

Chapek, who is already facing leadership problems amid a rift with his predecessor, Bob Iger, and discontent from employees who remain loyal to Iger thanks to his glittering tenure at the helm of the entertainment giant, said that Disney made a mistake by not publicly decrying the bill. 

‘I and the leadership team are determined to use this moment as a catalyst for more meaningful and lasting change,’ Chapek, 61, said during a rushed virtual town hall meeting.

Chapek also pledged to fiercely oppose Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s attempt to investigate parents of children undergoing gender-transitioning procedures for child abuse, The Wall Street Journal reported.

So Disney has just become the standard-bearer for grooming grade-schoolers and encouraging the surgical and chemical mutilation of children.

Disney’s been going down the drain for years. One of the creepiest things about Disney is the number of Disney TV stars who were sexually abused or exploited, whether by Disney employees or by other people in their orbit during their Disney years. That list includes Jordan Pruitt, Ricky Garcia, Bella Thorne, Paz de la Huerta, and others.

Miley Cyrus stands out as someone who must have had some very weird experiences on those Disney sets. Additionally, as a list by the Sons of St. Joseph demonstrates, innumerable young Disney stars went on to lives and careers involving extremely non-traditional, and sometimes criminal, sex.

I purchased all the classic Disney blu-rays over the years and recently filled out the collection from used disc stores.

I’ve watched them going from celebrating America and even have Easter services in the parks now to openly celebrating child grooming and perversions with gay days while cancelling the Christian concerts and removing “Christmas” while still celebrating it.

No Disney+, no streaming, no more movies from them, no parks.
They’ve chosen their side.

I'm sure Iger's tenure was just fabulous. He's a homosexual.

Many call the phenomenon Liberal Hegemony Globohomo

The USA pushes this ideology both at home, and abroad.

Go woke, go broke.
Pretty obvious where they’re headed.
Stockholders with a lick of common sense will bail.

Disney has been hosting (although they deceitfully deny it) “gay days” at their theme parks for decades. The descriptions of the goings-on at these times really can’t be written here, but Disney employees report trysts in no-so-remote locations of the park for doing what queers do. Used condoms litter the grounds. It’s really “disgust days” at Disney.

We used to go twice a year every year and had all kinds of Disney products and streaming services...we stopped it all and haven’t been there since 2017. We’re done with them unless they get rid of this woke BS.

Yep. My wife and I cut the cord this morning. This was the last straw. It’s like a bad marriage. You keep seeing her as that sweet girl you gave your heart to 20 years ago. But the affairs, the drugs, the constantly putting you down, etc. eventually cause you to open your eyes to see her for who she is. And then it’s easy to make the right move.

Seen Disney go down for at least 30 years. Went to Epcot center 1993.Their animatronic exhibit featuring Lincoln, etc had as their final statement that America meets its’ challenges, and the number one challenge to them was AIDS. A few years later I was privy to a staff meeting of Disney employees...They were led to a rousing cheer that it was officially GAYday at Disneyland. Ever since then I have watched the little gay hints they give out. There was some electric parade, and some guy in the float grabbed his crotch..dont forget the film they sponsored that had some scenes of young boys in a shower. Forgot the names, but they deepsixed the movie after the backlash..also remember they own ABC and ESPN....and their drift is obvious also.
Every now and then they do something more traditional but it is to give them cover. Their propaganda intentions are too obvious. Personally I avoid anything Disney, despite its’ heritage.

I have the Blu-rays of my favorite Disney films, including Snow White, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Bambi, Dumbo, Lady & the Tramp and Sleeping Beauty. I have DVDs of few more. My wife and I visited Disney World in Orlando about 25 years ago. Loved it then, won't go back. I canceled their streaming service after they fired Gina Carano.
