    Default Disney Blows A Fart In DeSantis' General Direction

    You knew that it would eventually move past political pandering, and that time has arrived.

    Disney just gave DeathSantis the middle finger, and we will now see how Meatball Ron responds.

    My money is on minitrump pretending that he doesn't have egg on his face.

    Disney World Event Gives Florida Gov. DeSantis the Middle Finger



    On paper, Disney World appears to have lost its right to self-govern. That's true, but it doesn't mean much because it's not as if the state -- even DeSantis's handpicked cronies who now oversee the former Reedy Creek Improvement District -- intend to actually get in Disney's way. The company prints money for the state.


    So, that's why Iger -- who had publicly spoken against the Don't Say Gay bill when he was a private citizen and not Disney CEO, has not called out DeSantis. A speech decrying the governor's actions, pointing out that they “put vulnerable, young LGBTQ people in jeopardy,” as he said before taking the CEO job back, would not help Disney.
    Instead, Iger has let his company's actions speak.
    Disney World plans to host a "major conference promoting lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights in the workplace" at the Disney World Resort this September, the Tampa Bay Times reported.

    "The largest LGBTQ+ conference in the world, with more than 5,000 attendees every year. It brings together executives, ERG leaders and members, and HR and DEI professionals and experts -- all working for LGBTQ+ equality," the event's organizer, Out & Equal, said on its website.
    "Over more than 20 years, Summit has grown to become the preferred place to network and share strategies that create inclusive workplaces, where everyone belongs and where LGBTQ+ employees can be out and thrive."
    The Tampa Bay Times called simply hosting the event "a defiant display of the limits of DeSantis’s campaign against diversity training."

    Meatball Ron "Don't say gay"

    Disney "Hold my beer"
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    It'd be a good place for you and your WSE terrorists friends to go gay-bashing and committing mass murder.

    No doubt many of them will be African-American or Hispanic, so it'd be a twofer for you, Captain Earl, ex-USAF! RAHOWA!!!

    Mr. Tiny Penis, are more WHITE supremacists frightening you? I noticed that you also throw in the words African American and even as a bonus round, include anyone Hispanic in your retarded response.

    Good for them. I used to steer my daughters away from a lot of Disney stuff when they were kids because of the persistent "princess needs rescuing by some man" meme in their kids' movies, plus their relentless commercialism and marketing. I'm getting a lot more respect for them in later decades.

    We know he never said "Don't say gay." As a teacher, you should know that.

    I thought you "Christians" were supposed to love the "sinners"? Poor pEarl, all triggered by the thought of LGBTQ ppl being able to have jobs, buy the house next door, walk around openly in daytime, and shop where he does. The horrors!

    Yeah they usually portray women as the weaker species and helpless.

    It's interesting that two of JPP's most hate-filled bigots showed up here to fret about this conference. And one Legion and his childish memes. Great post, btw!

    That's true. They have gotten much better in recent years about that. This is a good example of how public opinion, freely expressed, can influence culture and politics. Which of course is why Ron "Don't Say Gay" DeSantis is doing his best to stifle that free expression.
