Disney is facing a huge amount of backlash after they have continued to push the company’s “woke” agenda, which includes sexualizing children.
The Sunshine State in particular, where Disney World is located in Orlando, is not having any of it and Republican Governor Ron DeSantis, is determined to bring the media giant to heel.
Disney decided to weigh in on legislation recently passed in Florida, a bill designed to allow parents to have a right in what their children are being taught in schools.
The “Parental Rights in Education” bill caused a wave of liberal screeching across the board and the Florida Gov. DeSantis had a harsh response to the reaction, after videos published by the Manhattan Institute fellow Christopher Rufo, appeared to show producers and executives discussing how they plan to add and continue adding LGBTQ and “queer” content into their productions.
One Disney executive, Latoya Raveneau, blatantly discussed her “not-at-all-secret gay agenda.”
“In my little pocket of Proud Family Disney TVA, the showrunners were super welcoming . . . to my not-at-all-secret gay agenda,” she said. “Maybe it was that way in the past, but I guess something must have happened . . . and then like all that momentum that I felt, that sense of ‘I don’t have to be afraid to have these two characters kiss in the background.’”
“I was just, wherever I could, adding queerness,” she added. “No one would stop me, and no one was trying to stop me.”
Disney CEO Bob Chapek has also stated that his company would legally fight against the “Parental Rights in Education” bill – barring teachers from teaching 5-year Olds about transgender issues and gay issues.
Those who support the bill, however, largely the Republican base, have said that topics of such nature is not at all appropriate for children in kindergarten, as they do not yet have the developmental capacity to fully understand the complexities of adult topics.
The company’s stance on fighting to continue sexualizing children, has caused a huge amount of backlash from GOP lawmakers, and Representative Jim Banks of Indiana said he will vote against Disney being allowed special copyright privileges and legal protections – when the vote comes around again in a couple years.
Rep. Banks told Fox News, “If [Disney] is going to attack the American laws put in place by duly-elected governors and representatives at the state level, then they don’t deserve all the special laws and protections that are granted to their company.”
Gov. DeSantis also told Fox News that he would consider revoking Disney’s “self-governing” status, which has been in effect for decades now, allowing the company to essentially operate as its own type of government, which includes its own police force and fore department.
“And so, the political influence they’re used to wielding, I think has dissipated. And so, the question is, why would you want to have special privileges in the law at all? And I don’t think that we should,” DeSantis said.
The New York Post reported:
“In 1967, Florida created the Reedy Creek Improvement District, a semi-private, independent governing entity controlled by Disney. It gave the company the power to approve construction projects for its theme parks as well as build and manage the necessary infrastructure to support its operations.”
The report adds:
The district was also empowered to levy its own taxes and then use the revenue to build public services and maintain roadways and bridges.
If the GOP-led state government repeals the law, Disney World and all of its properties would be regulated by Orange and Osceola counties in central Florida.
“Over many, many decades…they’ve gotten incredible treatment from the Florida legislature and they are treated on a pedestal, this one corporation is treated differently than everybody else,” DeSantis told Fox News.
“That’s not something I’ve ever supported,” he said. “But now in the Legislature, you see a movement to reevaluate those special privileges. And so, at the end of the day, I think Disney has gotten over its skis on this.”
“There’s policy disputes and that’s fine, but when you’re trying to impose a woke ideology on our state, we view that as a significant threat,” he added.
America Boycott Disney it’s a Evil Doer world.
I am not boycotting Disney. Boycotting means you may be coming back. Like with the NFL 3 years ago – I am done with them. I live an hour away from Disney World and I have been going there since the 70’s. I have watched this change coming for a number of years. They have been slowly transitioning from a children’s attraction to a gay oriented venue. It all started when Ellen DeGenerate became their spokesman.
Yes, Ellen Degenerate was “the canary in the coal mine”. I want absolutely nothing to do with Disney at all.
I wont be taking my family there again, I sold my stock, and canceled the channel! Throw these petifiles out of Fl. Walt must be turning over in his grave. His once family orented park is now over run by snowflakes & queers. Throw this crap out of Fl…Then we wont have all the traffic, & accedents on I-4 by Disney. 1% of the population are queer!!!!1% Before we had Mickey & Minnie now we have Gooft Fuckin Mickey in the ass. Wheres the world going? These morons need to read the bible…In God we Trust!
“One Disney executive, Latoya Raveneau, blatantly discussed her “not-at-all-secret gay agenda.”
I guess her gay agenda includes support of pedophilia as a right? Anyway, to label her as openly perverse is definitely warranted
Florida State needs to take a good stance on this. Disney needs to be shut out of everything they’re doing right now. They’re supposed to be going by Florida State law, not their own damn law. This is foolish and outright ignorant on their part. Florida needs to get this s*** together and put the hammer down on their head
Some people are child slavery in the Disney world! This is not their role in telling children what to do or learn. That rile belong to the mother and father who brought these children into the world! These homosexual just want to destroy the family and the mind of a child. DON’T BELONG! In the end Florida’s governor shall force them out of his state! Even if it mean shutting down the business!
Way too many lazy, naive parents have been willing to pay through the nose to have this overpriced pedophile in a mouse costume entertain them and their kids. Disney is filthy corrupt and needs to be shunned.
We have cancelled our summer Disney World vacation.
That’s one way that we can do our part to make a difference.
There are other places to go and have fun with the family.
“There are other places to go and have fun with the family.”
Indeed there are such places to enjoy and not feel the need to scrub one’s self-clean after an enjoyable visit there.
It’s about time GOOD people stand for children. DISNEY is a sick group that wants the mind and bodies of your young children. They want to also make it ok to have sex with children and ruin them forever. If we adults don’t stand for our children and grandchildren innocents who will protect. Let’s send them a message that these degenerative people will not have access to our children
Old Walt is turning in his grave. Is Mickey Minnie is Minnie Mickey, are they transgender I’m confused. I think they are all fuckin goofy. But who is fucking Goofy is it Mickey or Minnie and let’s not start with Huey,Louie,Duey that’s a whole different story.
Exactly Disney is run by pedophiles
I have never had any problems with Gay, LGBTQ People. They have a right to live their own lives. The friends l have that are this way do not support these beliefs and feel it is the individual ‘s choice as they Mature, not the right of one group to force it down the throats of our children. Let them enjoy their Childhood without filling their heads full of facts that may only confuse them. If your Child comes to you and tes you that they may be Gay or Trans listen to them. Don’t put them down. Try to understand tjem and why they feel this way. Don’t make it MANDATORY and force-fed to them when they are to young to understand it. That will only confuse them.
Let them be Children and live as a Child who’s mind may be filled with confusing ideas.
Teach Adults about this so they can understand about People that are Gay, Trans ETC. so that they will understand their Children if they feel this way.
