#1 A sad, nauseating loss. As a platform to sell the diversity myth, the sexual dysmorphia myth, it's just an evil travesty now.

#2 Get Woke, Go Broke.

Morally, then Fiscally.

Wokism is projecting your racism and sexism on others.
Always be suspicious of the woke.

#3 They went from telling uplifting stories (which doesn't need a happy ending if you're a good writer) by excellent writers, to preaching by idiots selected purely on ideological lines.

#4 The guy who built it, earned it. The generations afterward, like so many other trust fund babies, squandered what made its wealth possible in the first place. They're living off the name. Time for the Mouse to die. Copyright back to 14 years with an additional 14 for the individual artist.

#7 "broke"?

think not: DIS = $8B in free cash flow annually + 24B in cash reserves, making money hand over fist

#8 It would be child abuse to deny your young kids access to the Disney classics, and the woke crowd of parents avidly buy the new propaganda crap whether their kids want to see it or not. So, yes, Disney ain't going away any time soon.

#9 You take away the bought and paid for infinite copyright protection and you'll hear the flak over target.

#10 People whine about the copyright thing all the time. It's only worth what the public will pay. If the public is willing to pay a lot why wouldn't you (as a corporation) consider it a valuable asset to protect by law / bribe / etc?

#11 The only reason we even have such insane copyright laws is so Mickey Mouse doesn't go into the public domain. He was created in 1932 or thereabouts, for chrissake.

#12 Just sit your child down next to the toilet...
