A flood of families are canceling their Disney memberships — from amusement parks to Disney+ streaming — over the woke entertainment company’s leftist, LGBTQIA+ agenda, with one parent noting, “Walt would turn over in his grave” if he saw what Disney has become.
Loyal Disney consumers and saying the company has gotten out of control with its wokeness in recent years and now they believe there’s a left-wing political agenda in virtually every facet of the company — from its movies, streaming service shows, to its theme parks and other offerings from its entertainment and media conglomerate.
Last year, Disney banned gender from its park greetings, replacing “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, dreamers of all ages,” with “Good evening, dreamers of all ages.”

I honestly don’t know if enough people care about this to make a difference in Disney’s revenue- but I pray there are.
The Walt Disney Company is a publicly traded corporation owned by its shareholders. Therefore shareholders can sue if the company intentionally makes decisions they know will cost them money. Lawsuit vs. grooming. Take your pick.
Nope, there is no “flood” of cancelations. Wishful thinking.
I recall many years ago in Disney when a Disney employee with a clipboard would ask this of park goers: “Would you still come to Disney if ticket prices went up XX dollars. And the fools would answer “oh yes, we just love it here”........and mysteriously ticket prices would go up.
Sounds like, after cutting cable and all streaming services, the only thing one should do is stay home and read the Bible and the US Constitution.
Frankly, I thought the visit wasn't worth my time.
Disney has been an agent of secular humanism from the start. We are merely witnessing its fruits.
I have not been to Disney since I was a child and I’d never go back. It’s too expensive and too long of lines. There are other parks to visit much closer that don’t have such long lines and overpriced food.
True but when they stopped faking it everyone turns on them.
We’re one of the seemingly few families that never took the holy pilgrimage to Disney.
I want nothing to do with them.
Agree, great memories as a kid and with my own kids but that Disney is dead and gone.
“Nope, there is no “flood” of cancelations. “
I don’t know.
Work in NoVa and meet a lot of middle class, non-government employed parents.
They are well aware of what the “woke folks” are trying to do to their kids and are p.o.ed on steroids. And then some.
Or perhaps he wouldn't. We don't know how far back the Disney empire's perversity goes, but close examination of cartoon stills and storylines indicate it might be less recent than we want to believe. Just as moths fly to the flame and thieves seek after money, perverts go where the children are. We shall see...
Us too. My parents live in Florida, and they took some of the kids to parks over the years. I think Elen, USMC, went to Disney World when she was 7 or 8, and Anoreth went to Disneyland in California at the same age several years earlier on a trip with my mom to see her sister. Other kids went to Sea World or Universal.
I haven’t even been to CaroWinds, the amusement park near us, and we’ve lived here nearly 20 years. It’s not what I think is fun.
Disney is too powerful. Once kids start complaining that they want to see a Disney movie or go to Disneyworld, the parents will cave.
Plus, Disney has the Marvel franchise. Even I caved. My daughter uses my Disney + account to watch the Marvel movies while she's in college. If I'd cancel, she'll beat the crap outta me.
When the kids were younger, we did a lot of Disney stuff - movies, Disneyland, Disney World and Disney cruises.
The kids got to be teens and we stopped the Disney stuff - and I just cancelled Disney Plus. We’re done.
One thing that Disney can count on is that, people have short memories. Those people will shortly ‘forget’ what the issue is about, as soon as their kids wish to go to Disney World or Disneyland.
And, you don’t need season tickets to visit once in a while, so, the season ticket thing is only applicable in the short term.
Good.
I never supported Disney when my kids were little. I watched it as a kid on Sunday nights, when it was actually good.
But sometime in the 60’s they started going off the rail and it left a bad taste in my mouth then.
I’d boycott them but already am, but I am glad to see other parents coming to their senses.
Every business contains the seed of their own destruction at the point of creation. Will the business fail, yes, the only question is when.
Disney is not too big to fail. Those that are running the business has lost sight of the purpose of Disney (to make money) and instead are now in the cultural changing business.
