#1 Basic Human Rights?

No - its Sexual Grooming - for a life in sexual exploitation.

#2 Disney could market the bill as "Don't Say Pervy Stuff to Third-Graders Bill", but that gives the game away.

#3 Sigh. Let me count the ways...

#4 Like an 'economic sanction' on legislators doing the right thing. Right?

#5 More evidence of the generational decline of businesses and empires.

#6 They should be Chastened

"I pledge my heart to the rainbow of the not so typical gay camp, to the gay agenda for which it stands. One camp, full of pride, indivisible, with affirmation and equal rights for all."

#7 If the Trunks take back Congress among the first agenda items should be -

1. return to the old copyright of 14 years with another 14 year extension for the individual artist.

2. force interstate distribution of cable and satellite to an a'la carte offering, bundles become only an option.

Of course the Unity Party being what it is, they'll sell out to those who hate them.

#8 At this point I'd be fine with a complete ban on corporate money in politics, but you know they would find a million ways around it no matter what any law might say.

#9 Disney, which has a huge presence in the southern state in the form of its Walt Disney World resort, had faced weeks of criticism both internally and externally over its lack of public response.

Eh? Had a direct line to DeSantis lobbying for against "Don't Rape Babies".

In fact, I'm starting to wonder if their park is a glamorous Chester Molester Van. I posted the other day how Everyday Mom wondered if there was an alternate ID process rather than have her daughter's photo taken, and The Agents brought the hammer on her, "How dare you even suggest we can't track your children!"

How's China taste? Pretty tolerant of the gays?

#10 Pretty sure what it would be called if you came home from the movie and the babysitter has your 8 year old naked on the couch.

But because it is in a school.....its somehow not just OK, but better?

Do go on.

#11 I believe all this was predicted when Disney bought out a movie company and began producing R rated movies.

#12 Disney can virtue signal all they want but until they institute Drag Queen Story Time at every last one of their theme parks it all rings hollow.

#13 I remember hearing that Disney had considerable clout in Florida, or at least in the local counties. Are they offering to quit buying politicians?

#14 Disney World is a very large Tourist attraction in Orlando, FL. Lots of tourist industry which is a big FL moneymaker.

When Disney starts talking about moving Disney World out of Florida and into some blue hellhole enclave like NY, OR or WA - its all just virtual signaling.

#15 Blue state land is too expensive for The Rodent to leave OrIando

#17 Orlando and Orange County are to Florida as Las Vegas is to Nevada, a blue bruise surrounded by red, thanks to the unionized hospitality industry workers. It's the home of the Demings political crime family.

#18 Wonder if this includes newest Florida resident Nancy Pelosi?

#21 There is NO way they can leave the land they have in Florida. That's like saying New York City will pick up and move to Alabama.

They have unique legal arrangements there, some of the land was purchased with some interesting riders attached (legend is an Ivy League school is still waiting for Disney to drill for oil), and they've built infrastructure that rivals most cities.

They have their own water treatment, natural gas, and electrical systems, drainage/flood control, and even an area dedicated to safe storage of explosives (for fireworks).

There's an entire office building buried underneath the Magic Kingdom park -- and that structure alone qualifies as a wonder of the modern world.
