- Disney shareholders rejected anti-DEI proposal on Thursday.
- A conservative think tank proposed that Disney stop participating in the Corporate Equality Index.
- Shareholders for Apple and Costco previously rejected similar proposals.
No suprise there. A large portion of Disney’s viewers are girls and minorities. You know, those dreaded DEI folk.
Well yeah they learned that more than just little white girls like their movies. Look at the animated Disney/Pixar feature films, so much more than it was in the pre- renaissance era.
Even during the Renaissance …we had Pocahontas and Mulan and Jasmine…but these people were more like phoned-in representatives of their cultures compared to now.
Look at Encanto, or Moana/Viana. Or Coco. Or even Soul.
Hell, Strange World features a mixed race family with a queer son and a three-legged dog.
And the movies are better for it. They are more relatable because they aren’t all some xeroxed copy of the same plain princess with a slightly different tint. And more importantly, they are showing their young and impressionable viewers a cast that reflects reality. That not every family is a carbon-copy “traditional” family. That different cultures exist and yeah, live a bit differently than suburban white folk (who live a shockingly similar life to the Sultan of Agrabah).
youtube videos of disney cinema is infested with these “anti-woke comments” its really not for conservatives anyways. like how the recent snow white movie is being spammed all over youtube with anti-woke twist. they trying very hard to get people to hate disney and using the actor as thier anchor.
and disney also have “virtue signalling” for LGBTQ+ for a couple decades already. harder to divorce from that. ALso children is thier money maker too.
