And yet there they are, raking in billions of dollars.
Wait... hold up. I know about Disney World doing NAMBLA Day (or as they call it, Gay Days), and that whole thing really needs to go away fast. But I don’t recall Ariel being outed as either transgendered or a lesbian, let alone both.
Well, if he wants to bankrupt Disney and have it be put out of business, go right on ahead and protest the Abortion Bill. Otherwise, he just shot himself in the foot regarding customers, his target demographic being Children, which unborn babies become.
Honestly, this decision will bite him in the butt, in the afterlife, heck, even in this life, since I doubt the Board of Directors and Shareholders are going to be very happy with Iger for blowing away a lot of money with his actions right now. Even they ought to know the bottom line and that Iger’s actions are harming that bottom line.
Here’s one thing I don’t get... Iger’s supposed to be a Religious Jew based on the site JesusIsSavior, so why on earth is he backing what is essentially the same thing the Nazis forced Jews and other undesirables to undergo in the camps?
Forget Walt Disney, his own FATHER would be ashamed of him, especially when based on this, he FOUGHT the Nazis, and his son is embracing the same tactics as them.
Yeah, no kidding. His actions are just contemptible. You’d think a guy whose own father had to fight the Nazis in World War II and most likely told him what the Nazis did in Concentration Camps would know better than to sponsor abortion or promote it to the detriment of the company he is currently running. Then again, a holocaust survivor was instrumental in passing France’s equivalent of Roe v. Wade and cynically used her status as such to push for its legalization.
BOYCOTT DISNEY!
DISNEY IS PART OF THE KULTURSMOG!
DISNEY IS DEFINING AMERICA DOWN!
You really think boycotting Disney’s going to work? I’ve been boycotting Disney since they had LeFou turned gay in the 2017 remake for Beauty and the Beast, and they STILL haven’t changed course under Iger. Heck, the fact that Disney hasn’t changed course despite the utter failure that was Gay Days, or Star Wars bombing at the box office, or any of that, should be an indication that boycotts simply aren’t going to be effective. If they were, they would have changed course by now, since it’s hitting them right where their money is.
Not to mention, I boycotted Pokémon for nearly a decade, and it was only now that the reason I boycotted them showed any fruit with them bringing Misty back and at the very least showing she’s not a pushover as a Gym Leader after how they turned that profession into a complete joke in AG, BW, and to a lesser extent DP, maybe even eventually letting her resume her goal of Water Pokémon Master. Which is 10 years too long.
Don’t get me wrong, I also think Disney backing abortion openly right now is contemptible, or at least, Iger doing that in Disney’s name is that. And I also think Disney REALLY needs a good cleaning house. Heck, I’m even willing to back a boycott if it’s a guarantee that they’ll back off and renounce their earlier policy. But we need to be a lot more effective in trying to get them to stop doing those harmful promotions and get them back to its roots. We could try petitioning (it was through petitions that people convinced Disney to change its mind about shutting down Disney Screencaps for copyright infringement, after all).
No, I don’t think that boycotting Disney will work. There are probably millions of Americans who are boycotting Disney, and, as you point out, Disney does what Disney does.
OTOH, there are 330 million Americans, and if we are divided 40 - 40 LIEberal - Conservative (20% indifferent?), the 40% LIEberal crowd is a HUGE audience for Disney and the other KultureSmog proponents.
To change the culture, we have to keep doing what we are doing. And convince the other side that we are right and they are wrong. And convince them that they need to be with us!
PERSIST! PERSIST! PERSIST!
It will not be easy, but I see us gaining ground - this “impeachment” debacle will work in our favor, and when DJT is re-elected, we can really roll up our sleeves and get to work!
Let’s hope so. And quite frankly, we’d do a lot better if we just removed Iger and replaced him with someone who is a LOT closer to Walt Disney’s view on things than him. As it is, Iger’s even more divorced from Disney than Eisner was, and I’d even go as far as to state that of the successors to Disney barring maybe Diane’s husband and Roy Disney, Eisner was the one who came the closest to outright respecting Disney’s view on things. At least Eisner kept Wonderful World of Disney and kept his mouth shut on the abortion debate.
