Yeah indeed

I realize Disney has always been a thing and that Disney superfans have always been around. But this new era of neighbors competing over who goes how often and where they stay is pretty pathetic. "Back in my happy place, 4th time this year!"

I'm really not anti-Disney, I assume I'll take my kid once or twice. But most of the people I know who go all the time pretty much exclusively go to Disney and don't do anything else.


Signed, poors.

Your annual Orange Beach trip is so badass dude.

With all the political concessions Disney gets in this State, it will be interesting to see if DeSantis or future Repub. administrations reacts to this.

I hate wokeness, but adult disney fans are a weird breed. Really a tough call as to who I'm rooting against here

Feel like the Disney characters are Disney superfans anyways so no, she probably wants to look just like Cinderella.

This all seems like a non issue and this guy needs to chill on his Disney creepiness.

Agree. I think the author is a baby back bitch but it doesn't make him wrong.

What the frick is so amusing about Woke-ism? Why is there a need to inject that horseshoe into them parks, movies, sports, and academia? Also, people using Karen now are mostly ghey little bitches. (NTTIAWWT)

Disney is a fun trip, especially with the kids. I could never go there more than once every few years though.

The wife and I were at Disney years ago. We were having dinner at the Hibachi place in Epcot. We were sitting next to a couple a couple of years older than us. I started talking to the husband:

"How long have yall been at Disney?"

"Almost two weeks."

"Wow, a two week vacation?"

"Yeah, and we have another two weeks to go."

"A whole month at Disney?"

"Yup. We do this a couple of times a year."

So this guy and his wife spend at least 2 months out of the year at Disney.

Good for them for finding something they really enjoy, I guess.

I think it's a good selling point - nobody is uplifted by wokeness, which is all about finding problems in all things. Black people are told everything is worse than they thought, and they're unable to rise above their circumstances because racism is pervasive. White people are told they're inherently bad due to "whiteness" and all they can do is work endlessly to undo themselves. But there is no salvation or redemption, it's just working for life to diminish yourself until you die.

James Lindsay screamed about this when going through a paper about how Horton Hears a Who is a white savior story that diminishes indigenous people. Of course in reality Horton Hears a Who is an objectively good story about a good elephant looking out for others, but the woke movement disagrees. "Who the frick is served by this?" was basically the takeaway.

Anyway, back to Disney cult

Oh no! Someone with tattoos is going to ruin the iMmErSiOn in Galaxy's Edge!!!!!

Goodness gracious! Funky hair styles are going to just ruin the appeal of visiting Disney World!

I'm all for being against woke culture, but this is a retarded fricking hill to die on.

Signed,

Guy looking at your "I'm in Belgium at Epcot post, tee hee!!!" Facebook post from actual Belgium

I'm probably about to get fact checked hard by somebody about the possibility that there is no Belgium in Epcot and I'm ok w/ that

Damn that was pathetic. Disney has sucked for years. Flying across the country, paying thousands of dollars, standing in lines for lame rides, and being crammed in crowds with strangers was all perfectly acceptable for humpty dumpty. But seeing someone's natural hair or a tattoo on a worker just RUINS it for him. Imagine going through life so soft...
