Florida, Gina, the various franchises.
Disney, wtf are you doing? You are literally splitting your audience in half. Mind numbingly stupid, but most of the board members don’t even own many shares of the company, so there ya go. |

This is interesting.
Hopefully Disney loses. Big corpos need to know their place. |

And even if they don't, this will surely be ugly and embarrassing for them. Having to answer stuff like, why did Gina lose her job for posting memes about WWII vs. today's political climate while guys like Pedro Pascal are free and clear for saying Trump is actual Hitler, and so on.

The bottom isn't even remotely done falling out for Disney. So far we their admissions of detrimental agenda-policy, their ongoing financial disaster reports (they are currently in such a large loss that it could be compared to as if all of Epcot Center was destroyed, unrecoverable and uninsured), and the social ramifications are now underway with this Carano thing the tip of the iceberg.

Anyhoooooow... conservatives are snowflakes for wanting everything the way it used to be (which often wasn't better), and the woke left is going batshit over anything they don't agree with. It's going to be an interesting action because when you're employed by a company, you represent the company, and if what you post doesn't fall in line with the company narrative... it isn't just Disney, it's pretty much most companies in the world. So any potential judgement could have implications for the future elsewhere re my point above. Funded by the owner of Twitter, I mean X, that shuts down speech in general too, but that's a private platform, their rules, you play by them even if you don't agree. Don't agree, go somewhere else.

And it should not act like a colossal snowflake, when someone from the same company has a different opinion. Otherwise, into trash this company goes. Also, if the statement was made on a personal account and does not violate the law, NDA or targets company itself, company has no right to interfere. |

Well this should be interesting, Gina Carano vs Disney’s commie empire. Wow already 3 years since that former U.S. Senator called her a “nazi” on Bill Maher show

Imagine the life these guys have. Imagine a variety of life-deficits, but then imagine having several of them all at once. Including so much inner-doubt that you convince yourself you are a hero fighting "the evil". Or even worse, doing it while pretending to be virtuous but knowing the entire time that you are actually sewing hate. And then, when you run out of arguments, stand there and make a hideous screaming noise or like our guy above - just call people "names". The liberal way. |

He means the younger snowflake generation who don’t want to use “him” or “her” and use they instead , or identify as non binary etc.

You’d think, and here we do actually agree, but that isn’t the case in real life.

Disney inks exclusive deal with Taylor Swift, stock jumps almost 6.5% after hours.
4ChandrewNBD, if there are any other companies you don't like because they are so "woke," could you list them here, please? I would like to invest in all of them. And make a TON more money . |

wtf happened to her? She was hot. Is her character in the mandalorian a descendant of Jabba the Hutt?
She was my crush as a teen, now she can literally crush me by sitting on me. No amount of anti-fatshaming propaganda can save her and body positivity, there's limits to that. All the apologists can seethe all they want, but I can't take seriously a fat woman in an action series. Deep down fatties know what they are and how society feels about them.

Life, that’s what. A lot of women get that way after having kids, going through a stressful period, or retiring. My cousin married a blonde girl who looked like the typical prom queen, then they had kids and now she looks like pre-2020 Rebel Wilson.

That's not really what "she" is doing or the way these things work. Disney will say "no," then she will demonstrate damages by her lost income for her not being on season 3, "Rangers of the New Republic," and maybe even the Mandalorian movie, then Disney will come back with X amount to settle, then that's that and things are mostly amicable. OR Disney can say, "Well hey, how about we bring you back in X, X, and X to make things right?" but they'll never do that because that would mean publicly betraying the wackjobs they were trying to appease to begin with.
