Mouse House left out a nod to its controversial founder, Walt Disney.


So now, the liberal view is that Walt Disney himself is controversial? I guess I missed something. When did Walt become controversial?

Maybe the should replace all references to Walt Disney just like all the other cancel culture organizations have done to America.

If during his lifetime, the Disney corporation had devolved into the woke, neo pagan decadence it is now, Walt Disney would have dissolved the company and removed his name.

Get Woke/Go Broke

Disney will destroy themselves over this. The goodwill built up over generations is being squandered.

As I recall from Accounting 101, Goodwill is an asset reported on the balance sheet. Torching the company’s goodwill should be a criminal act, or at least a failure in fiduciary duty.

I agree with this tweet:
https://twitter.com/DisneyGeorge/status/1549767072984584192

“When people think of the word “Disney”, the first thing that may come to their mind is Mickey Mouse or an elegant castle. The person below is what comes to my mind because he is Disney. Without him there would be no Mickey or castles. Please keep Walt in Disney!”

Disney is dead in the United States.

Red China is their future.

Walt Disney is not controversial.

Walter wasn’t a pedophile-his memory must be scrubbed to accommodate all the current pedo employees and board members...

I keep wondering how long it will take for the woke degenerates running Disney to realize that Main Street USA embodies everything they hate, and therefore must be destroyed. Given that they’ve now overtly canceled their company’s founder, I doubt that Main Street is long for this world.

I believe “woke” leftist degenerates obsessed with their own sexual degeneracy love Disney because it creates fantasy worlds that enable them to escape from reality (which is what they spend every waking minute trying to do with their endless “genders” and pronouns, etc.). Living in a fantasy world is all their lives are about. I think this is a big reason why Disney’s projects over the past number of years, while often technically spectacular, lack any sense of heart or meaning. They’re just spectacle for spectacle’s sake.

However, Walt didn’t set out to just create fantasy worlds. Yes, he intended to create places to temporarily escape the cruel world, but he also intended those places to educate people, to uplift families, and to celebrate America and the principles it was founded upon. All of these goals are anathema to the evil, self-absorbed Left, so must be destroyed.

Another controversial move was when the company decided to scrub the use of “ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls” from its theme parks to make them more inclusive, and change its once-strict dress-code policy. Since last year, theme park workers can show up to work with visible tattoos in whatever gender costume they wish.

Shareholders need to sue...

What the "woke" do not, cannot, and refuse to understand, is the "wokism" is the bilge. Though they think they're doing the opposite: instead of reaching for the stars, these people are reaching for the sewer

Those who run Disney should kill themselves and get it over with. Their existence is disgusting to the average person.

I’m surprised the Walt Disney animation department hasn’t created a new speech with Walt Disney’s likeness spouting wokeness of the current corporate BoD.
