Disney tolerated Gay Day, would not risk discrimination suits, told employees to treat it as any other day. I seriously doubt that old Walt would have allowed it.

Disney’s upper management is almost certainly university-indoctrinated proggies now, as are most (all?) large corporations.

We have so much ground to recover. This is a generational war.

Disney needs to quit hiring these liberal leaders or it will really start backfiring. Sooner or later, there will be a cost with disparaging half their customers.

Global company Disney is compromised by foreign interests. They are anti-American.

Regardless. They allowed their tacit endorsement to propagate. As a consumer, I am not required to ‘understand’ their particular ‘stand’ on that aspect.

This sidebar isn’t the only thing about Disney in the last 20 years that have bothered normal Americans. I’m not going to go into it because I simply don’t have to. JUST LIKE MILLIONS of other Americans who have come to the same conclusion.

I am not willing, nor do I ever intend to bend over backwards to a company like Disney, frankly.

You guys can think what you want, but it doesn’t give you the right to condemn anyone else (especially epithets) about it.

Done.

The democrat party is a coalition of rich states and poor people, while the gop is a coalition poor states and rich people.

Of course a "rich state" is a state with high taxes and a "poor state" is a state with low taxes.

No. That’s what people like obama do, eg have the IRS go after political enemies. But half the country supported Trump and there’s the potential for a lot less business to their parks.

No. But Disney apologists are.

Anyone who does not believe that Michael Eisner and Bob Iger successfully created the most effective anti-American pro-perversion propaganda organization in history either doesn’t have kids or is not paying attention to what they watch.

FYI - I did not condemn you. I related facts regarding Disney and Gay Day. And you are unaware of how much I am on your side. I just cringe when I see FReepers going off half-cocked on misinformation (I have to watch out that in myself in my eagerness to hammer the other side); makes us look just like the proggies.

Not surprising, Disney is big on replacing American workers with foreign H1-B visas.

Seems to me you chimed in on my response to someone who called me an a$$hole. Your response was more towards endorsing the epithet than otherwise. Take my ensuing response how you want, I really don’t care.

Further, I am DONE with this “concern ninny” crap about how “it makes US look.” I wasn’t “half-cocked;” it was a regurgitation of decades of duplicitous Disney crap.

No matter what we do or say we will be condemned by their side. You had better get used to that fact and not be so concerned about castigating those on our side.

Are you trying to equate anything about Disney’s founder with the Disney of today? Honestly?

Yes. Very well. But you mistake that what you say means anything to me or is relevant. Also note that I have not denigrated you about reading skills or anything of that ilk.

Have a great day. I just don’t need the no-value-added here in this conversation.

Agree they should have to pay a price. How about a federal investigation of their misuse of the H1B visa process? Land on them like Obama landed on Gibson Guitar. Uniformed enforcement officers, herding Disney white collar workers into holding rooms while their offices and computers are searched?

Somebody resists verbally? Cuff ‘em and book ‘em Dan-O!
