Is this a little short sighted?

Disney should want as many kids as they can put 1200% marked up Elsa / Star Wars etc clothes on



I ll say the same thing I said about Tim Cook and Marc Benioff about there threats against GA a a couple yrs ago...Not one of them is going to stop selling in Saudi Arabia or China (how many gay people are in China??...excluding Tim Cook when he visits) Until they pull out of SA or China...they are spineless hacks looking for cheap easy pats on the back by their echo chamber friends

I’ve been to Disney World, they love kids. They aren’t pulling out of Georgia. This is why you go with your convictions.

Or, you know, they could just like use one of the many forms of birth control readily available?

If they do pull out of Georgia, I promise you I will not watch another Disney owned broadcast until things change. I don’t care what I miss out on.

I’ve been to Disney as well. They loved my kids to the tune of $5k. They stopped giving a shite about them the second we left their property and the last bill had been paid

You can be assured they will pursue a liberal agenda. I'd say the entire lot of them think the same. There may be a few exceptions but very few. Think about it. A professed conservative in Hollywood is likely boycotted in the same manner as the industry wants to boycott certain states. Imagine being in a position that you won't work to your capacity because you don't think in a particular political way. That's wrong!

They’re like all the other liberal hacks. They actually don’t have anything they actually believe in.

I’m glad AMC does not have to get in the middle of this since TWD story line made it out of Georgia 7 seasons ago.

So passing a law trying to reduce abortions is virtue signaling?

2. The right- the claim they love the precious unborn babies. Truth is, they realize the majority of people getting abortions are welfare queens and they don’t want more mouths to pay for. They just like the idea of pointing and calling the left baby killers


Why would they be deceitful or insincere in opposing something that works against them demographically? There is zero logic in that premise.

And it's not logically inconsistent or unreasonable for folks to want some type of reform or constraints put on welfare, whatever they may be, while also opposing something you consider to be murder of humans morally/philosophically/religiously/etc. The two concepts are in some sense related but holding those two views is in no way contradictory.

Care to point out examples. And examples that are as controversial.

Do movie people like killing babies at an increased rate?

I never in my life would have thought there was such a demand for pulling apart little bitty babies and crushing their tiny skulls and scrambling their brain


Stop pretending that your post had any relation to reality of a 6 week old embryo.
