Societal collapse. Drive Disney out of business.
I agree. I think customer base has changed.
Its true. I know a 48 year-old man who insists on going to Disney every year with his wife.
Yes, but they are giving the customer base what it wants. It just shows there’s money to be made from entertaining perverse people.
Don’t I know this! I’ve taken my grandkids to Disney On Ice shows, and grown adults with no social skills are dressed as Disney characters- in the stands, not part of the show!
Interesting read
My wife won a deal 10 yrs ago for 4 days at Disney staying at the Beach Club. The hospitality was fantastic. Grossly overpriced at retail but I can understand the allure.
Conservatives need to stop spending any money on Disney products. It’s like giving money to the devil.
Even the Chinese are pissed off with woke nonsense from Disney.
Yes. I’ve been going to Disneyland once a year with my kids (3 day pass each time) for the last 25 years. We go from birth until age 18, and my last one has one more trip to go before she graduates from high school.
I noticed something very different last year. There were suddenly hardly any strollers or kids, in comparison with prior years. Partly perhaps due to Covid and CA parents’ fears. . .but I don’t think that’s the entire explanation.
My Gen Z son went there with his girlfriend and spent a large part of the day shopping and in the new Star Wars bar. Yes, a bar. . .overpriced too.
Disneyland is too expensive for many families now. (I have to say I enjoyed all the many wine bars now at Disneyland—there are now more than one!) And now there are rum drinks available in the restaurant in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride too. Walt is rolling in his grave for sure. . .on the other hand, Disney security does an excellent job of throwing out guests the minute they seem tipsy at all. . .
Disneyland
Where Groomers learn to Groom!!
i always thought grown ups with out children at Disney was weird.
Yep. I know a few gay people that go every year too. They act like they never grew up.
One of my nieces got married recently. She was a long-time Disney employee and some of her guests were her old friends (freaks) from Disney. Some were dudes with ribbons in their hair, acting all hyper feminine in their actions, dancing with other dudes that also set off my gaydar before they were dancing together. They can try to normalize it all, but when they try to indoctrinate it then I think it will come to blows.
I wouldn’t take a kid to any of Disney’s places, but if you do I would advise you to check out every hotel, bathroom, changing room, etc. for cameras. If they are pedo oriented the cameras will be there.
That’s true for a lot of “adults” these days. I’ve seen the term “Kidults” used. They collect action figures, or those weird Funko POP! figures, do Cosplay, or — worst of all — are Bronies.
Had no clue what a Brony was until we encountered a Brony convention while in Baltimore to see the Orioles.
Don’t get me wrong — we all have our passions or “toys,” but some are a lot more weird than others.
My aunt and uncle used to go every year with their kids, and one year they took chus. It was OK then, no sign of wokeness, still family-friendly... but once was enough. Been there, done that, as a kid I would rather spend a weekend at the farm wading in the creek, and listening to grandmother tell ghost stories around a fire.
The same thing happened to superhero comic books. Until the mid-70s, the target audience was 8-13 year-old boys, now it is 40+ year old single men.
