Disney adults was not on my radar. Thank you for this. Not only is it a bright spot in the hellscape of current news but it gave me the nudge I needed to cancel my own subscription.
They aren't going to change their political strategy unless their pocketbook is affected. This was done earlier with Tesla, but Disney is not a one-business company, so it will not easily be threatened with bankruptcy by the actions of one group of people.
I think it's likely to be more successful with Disney. Musk is committed to fascist ideology; Disney seems to have mostly just thought it was easier to comply. show them it isn't, and they'll change directions.
"Most people don’t want to have Trump at the center of every aspect of their lives."
Substitute "a fascist regime" for "Trump" -- he is just the figurehead, the sideshow to distract us while the christofascists (who in no way follow the teachings of Christ), technofascists, opportunists, and other "shareholders" in this bought-and-paid-for regime do their cruelty and destruction.
this is fantastic! it reminded me of the little tiny corner of the MCU fandom where I met most of my best friends. despite most of us having been in it for 10+ years, they were some of the loudest people I've seen in calling for the captain america BDS boycott last year. they also rallied around a charity project a friend and I started for gaza last year (we made fanart and stuff for each other in exchange for donations, and recieved over 100 entries/donations, which is a ton for a smallish fandom). it was one of the best fandom experiences I've ever had, the support was incredible. I think people have a tendency to see fandom folks as bootlickers, and some are unfortunately, but I have long seen and experienced the contrary. proud of these folks for standing up for stuff ❤️
I just realized I know more than a few Disney adults, I just didn't know it was an identity. Romancelandia is another somewhat looked down on community that has gotten quite political.
"Horst Ludwig Georg Erich Wessel (9 October 1907 – 23 February 1930) was a member of the Sturmabteilung (SA), the paramilitary wing of the Nazi Party, who became a propaganda symbol in Nazi Germany following his murder in 1930.... After his death, Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels elevated him into a martyr for the Nazi Party."
My best friend, who I was helping set up her new UHD TV last night, switched to CNN just in time to catch Dear Leader Trump raving out of his assmouth on The New Horst Wessel Show!
I MAY have accidentally screamed, "TURN THE CHANNEL! TURN THE FUCKING CHANNEL!"....
"It may seem odd to have Disney adults as (one) vanguard of the resistance. But this is what happens when you face a fascist government that wants to control everything you do or think. "
Not so odd:
Volodymyr Zelenskyy was a comedian before he became President of The Ukraine;
as was Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, John Oliver, and (yuck) Bill Maher.
Keith Olbermann was a sports reporter;
as was Bob Costas and Hunter S. Thompson.
It often seems like the people in the "degraded" parts of media are the ones who can see more clearly than the ones blinded by their proximity to all that lovely power and access....
I love Disney and I AM the resistance. Here's what you need to know.
Let's help things along. Time to brush up on your knowledge of "The Epstein Conspiracy." Not "the Files." Not "the Client List." Make no mistake. It's "The Epstein Conspiracy" and we need to start calling it that because that's exactly what it is.
RELEASE THE EPSTEIN CONSPIRACY FILES. DO IT FOR CHARLIE!
Here are the posts and articles I have collected detailing the depth of what I'm calling "The Epstein Conspiracy." It's not just some files, it's not just a client list. It's literally a massive conspiracy to conceal that global pedo cabal you've heard about all this time. Only it involves so many billionaires, royals, politicians, banking institutions, universities, intelligence agencies and global leaders your head will spin. If anyone hasn't fully dived into the rabbit hole yet, these links are a good start.
NOTE: Every post I'm linking has verifiable sources. This is not some kooky conspiracy theory Kool Aid. This is all publicly available information, every name and every thread are connected. In many cases the details are corroborated by the other links.

As if apparently losing $4 billion wouldn’t show them the way…
Yes. Agree. One tiny friendly amendment:
"Most people don’t want to have Trump at the center of every aspect of their lives."

Thanks for coming to my micro TED-talk.

useful explainer, thank you, Noah. a little bit of hope in the morning following the madness of yesterday's memorial service.
you mean the rally? 🙄
Someone shared on social media yesterday:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horst_Wessel
"Horst Ludwig Georg Erich Wessel (9 October 1907 – 23 February 1930) was a member of the Sturmabteilung (SA), the paramilitary wing of the Nazi Party, who became a propaganda symbol in Nazi Germany following his murder in 1930....

"The New Horst Wessel Show!" God bless you sir or madam or they; God bless you. You made me LOL, which today in particular I desperately needed.
It's not original to me by any means, but I'll take the bow anyway.

Glad to see Disney adult influencers hoping to …influence against Disney, but, anecdotally the majority of Disney adults I know are MAGA 😭
