No, and I’m not holding Disney up on a pedestal by any means, but they seem to be the only ones who can really speak up to Ron’s rhetoric and actions and have a meaningful impact (like the monorail thing).
I don’t think he will (waaayyyyy too much IP & $$$ on the line, plus the cost of basically rebranding a fuck ton of shit from rides to merch to movies/TV), but if he does, he can go stand by one of those Disney lakes with the gators and cry about his dwindling million dollar bonuses.
The board and investors would be pissed off too because their wallets depend on him making good decisions.
I’m really hoping that Disney does something fantastic at Epcot Mexico as a response to this.
Sure, the corporations will save us. Btw have you seen the new Disney planned communities?
I did k-12 in Celebration, are they really trying that Stepfordian experiment again?
Yes they are. Apologies for the crap source but a quick search will pull up the medium of your choice: https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/disney-storyliving-communities/index.html
I don’t usually side with corporations, but when I do, it’s because they are at war with Ron desantis

The enemy of my enemy and such.
Sure, until Robert bin Iger flips and turns the Mousekedeen into the Tinkerban.

They’ll turn on you, on a dime.
Sure, but until then, who can fight him more effectively?
For a dime*
Fair.
You can enjoy the fact that Disney is fucking with DE Santis without “siding” with them in any meaningful way
And I do. But that is a dual edged sword, and I’m not kidding myself.
