I wouldn't mind one bit if Disney went completely under and had to be liquidated. They are too dominant a force in the entertainment entity, essentially a monopoly. On top of that the "entertainment" they produce is really subversive propaganda. The death of that company would be a good thing for America.

Can you elaborate on this or give an example?

Would you say that this counts?

Meet Marvel's First Transgender Hero: 12-Year-Old 'Mighty' Rebekah

Rebekah was only 10 years old when the Trump administration rolled back its protections for transgender students — but she, as a transgender student, felt compelled to act on behalf of herself and her community.

“I can change the world," Rebekah asserted in a new episode of Marvel's Hero Project, a Disney Plus series that profiles youth who are making a difference.

A native of New Jersey, she and her family partnered with organizations like Garden State Equality to give speeches and demonstrate that trans people are not the villains that the federal government and right-wing media make them out to be.

To enact change on a local level and change hearts and minds, Rebekah even appeared before the New Jersey legislature to lobby for Assembly Bill 1335, legislation that would mandate LGBTQ history curriculum in public schools.

“I’ve never seen myself in the history they’re teaching," Rebekah told legislators, pointing to LGBTQ figures like Harvey Milk, Marsha P. Johnson — and possibly, one day, herself — as figures that young people need to learn about.

Her voice made a difference. N.J. Gov. Phil Murphy (D) signed the bill into law in February, and LGBTQ-inclusive lessons will begin next year.

The episode of Marvel's Hero Project also shows her coming-out journey. She articulated that she was trans by age 8, when her mother outlined the LGBTQ acronym after a search for gender-nonconforming bathing suits.

Marvel movies. The girl power and diversity crap is fundamentally subversive as is the replacement of white heroes with blacks and male heroes with women.

Maleficent. The retelling of a classic with the roles of good and evil reversed. This is fundamentally subversive as it undermines objective good.

Mulan. A girl power flick with a female hero in a setting where her heroics are impossible. She kicks the butts of huge men. It's just ridiculous.

Star Wars sequals. The constant girl power propaganda and the Mary Sue character and the diversity garbage. Then there's the woke robot in Solo.

That's all I have time for right now.

I'm not seeing what's bad about girl power and racial diversity tbh.

Maleficent. The retelling of a classic with the roles of good and evil reversed. This is fundamentally subversive as it undermines objective good.

Hmm, I can see this potentially being a problem. Although it also depends on what you consider to be objective good.

Mulan. A girl power flick with a female hero in a setting where her heroics are impossible. She kicks the butts of huge men. It's just ridiculous.

I can see the problem with that.

But overall, none of these make Disney bad. Some other examples shown to me (like the Pinocchio one) are pretty fucked up though.

If you have to ask this question you're either trolling or have lived in a cave for the last 20 years.

Neither. I want to know what material you (or they) personally think is subversive propaganda. I don’t want to assume anything.

Here's a thread on Pinocchio. It goes really deep.

edit: It takes a hard turn into q and speculation. I'll keep looking. There was a twitter thread a few days ago looking at a whole bunch of disney stuff with screen shots and connections. I'll see if i can find it.

One with pictures. i thought it was this one, but it's not .this was used in the one i'm looking for though.

Thank you. I will look through them.

Edit: ew, what the fuck is this? I'm going down the rabbit hole now.

Yeah there is a lot there and it connects with real world stuff. a lot of new people are not ready for a thread like that yet. Still, it's got legit info and screenshots. I'm still looking for the thread i saw yesterday. It was saved via unroll (i think) and it went through multiple disney movies and expanded on Pinocchio. Little mermaid, Lion king. Kid chasers in bednobs and broomsticks. Really detailed, it's a shame i can't find it. much less q stuff, more focus on disney. I'm not saying q stuff is bad, but it's not the question you were asking lol.

There was a TikTok exposing an old Disney (I think, but it was children’s entertainment nonetheless) movie about a little boy dating a grown ass woman, so I’m not really surprised by all of this. But I am disgusted at the fact that Disney spreads this ugliness onto the world. I guess you produce what you represent. Pedophilia is rampant.

Go back to reddit

Seems like you can't stay away from me.

Be wary. This happened to Voat as well- after a mass reddit ban wave, people try to re-assemble at new forums and the forum gets bombarded by DDOS attacks and autistic "users" who spout ethnic slurs and harass communities looking to settle in.

Gotcha. I read about that on the announcement thread earlier. His posting history is atrociously uninsightful. He needs to go back to 4chan.

Likely not a real account. A key weakness of "free speech" platforms is that you can create 10 accounts and spam unhinged autism to drive people away. Make sure you block him.

Thanks.

Would you prefer if they were bought out by Tencent?

[–]Lostcarkeys 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

I would prefer if the film industry died and was reborn under white patriot ownership.
