They have perverted the dreams of Walt Disney on the altar of the profit and loss statement. They have nothing in common with Walt Disney. Eisner is a filthy ............
This, of course, has now changed.
So, although I don't claim to be an expert on totalitarian states, I do know a few things about Disney.
Totalitarian states don't usually charge expensive admissions, because people don't want to go there. They don't often let people leave whenever they want.
Totalitarian states generally don't encourage diversity. Instead, they tend to persecute minorities and the religious, rather than creating an environment where all are welcome and treated equally.
Another thing about Totalitarian states is that they generally aren't friendly or happy, and they don't typically listen to complaints or attempt to resolve them.
A lot of folks like to complain about Disney. McDonald's too. It seems that when something is popular and successful, (especially folksy American stuff) folks like to get worked up about it and make ridiculous comparisons. Laughable comparisons.
My suggestion is that if you don't like Disney stuff; don't go to it, don't watch it, don't read it. Instead, enjoy what you like.
And while we're at it, let's agree not to whine about each other's tastes.
Non Gustibus Disputatum (In Taste, There Is No Argument).
Happy Holidays.
"I was wrong. . . . Under any interpretation, the attack on the Pentagon was criminal and entirely without justification," he said in a statement. "I apologize for any harm that my misstatement may have caused."
Given Disney's anti-God as well as their anti-US sentiments its no wonder their stocks and profits are off.
I've been to Epcot twice and The Magic Kingdom once. I can't say that either one of them has felt particularly dictatorial. Mind you, each time I've gone between Thanksgiving and Christmas, when the crowds are down, so the lines and regimentation are not as long.
(I may have family bias, too. My father-in-law was a consultant on the water systems at Epcot.)
