Disney fires CEO Chapek and brings back former CEO Iger. Two sides of the same coin but money talks and with Disney+ is in the crapper subscription wise the board had enough of the miserable quarterly results.

    @TheKobeStopper can we get an update on how that Florida taxation on Disney city is actually good news for Disney?

    Disney has lost over 1/3rd of its fans.
    It cost Disney $200 million to make toy story 3 so that they could put two cartoon females in a kissing scene and further indoctrinate children. Sales were $225 Million. They lost their ass.
    Disney + was considered a God send to the stale Disney brand when they started it up. Last year it lost $1.7 Billion.
    The new little mermaid is an African American girl. No big deal, right? No one would care if Disney hadn't politicized it and turned it into another virtue signaling lecture on society. They still don't get it. No one cares if the little mermaid is white, yellow, orange, black or pink. They don't want politics and grooming in their entertainment.
    Iger is a well-known entity, but he is not going to change anything about the woke bullshit. That will continue. As one Disney employee remarked, "it is us against the cretins".

    Yes they are. Intelligent people are cognizant of what is going on around them, dumb one's aren't.

    I take you for a dumb one.

    For the unintelligent who are not cognizant of what is going on around them:

    https://www.spiked-online.com/2022/11/21/disneys-woke-crusade-is-costing-it-dearly/

    A leaked internal video from earlier this year shows that Disney’s woke turn is very much part of a top-down agenda. Disney corporate president Karey Burke, herself a proud mother of ‘one transgender child and one pansexual child’, has lobbied for Disney to include ‘many, many, many LGBTQIA characters’ in its stories. She has even called for 50 per cent of Disney characters to be either ‘LGBTQIA’ or racial minorities.

    I was hearing the revoking Disney tax district was really going to cost Florida taxpayers
