Growing up in Florida in the 70s, went to the allegedly Magic Kingdom several times. Never liked it. It’s a haven for gullible middle brows who want to spend a small fortune waiting in line for kiddie rides and who like paying out of control sums to have a personal experience with walking oversized vermin. Now the gits who run the cultural vomitorium have decided to involve themselves in sexual politics. Oh joy.

FNC: “In videos posted by journalist Christopher F. Rufo, Disney officials can be seen talking to employees at an ‘all-hands’ meeting about the Florida bill, recently signed into law by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis.

In one video, Disney’s Diversity and Inclusion Manager Vivian Ware explains to employees that the company is ditching the words ladies, gentlemen, boys, and girls in its theme parks in order to not alienate transgender children.”

SCOOP: I've obtained video from inside Disney's all-hands meeting about the Florida parental rights bill, in which executive producer Latoya Raveneau says her team has implemented a "not-at-all-secret gay agenda" and is regularly "adding queerness" to children's programming. pic.twitter.com/eJnZMpKIXT

Disney released a statement slamming the bill. “Florida’s HB 1557, also known as the ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill, should never have passed and should never have been signed into law,” the company said.” Ah yes, Walt’s vision was definitely exposing young school children to sex so predators would have an easier time.

But Disney’s public groveling wasn’t enough for some of their more rabid employees who walked out of a company meeting likely because every male wasn’t dressed in drag.

“TWDC must publicly commit to an actionable plan that protects employees from hateful legislation,” the walkout group posted. Disney should show a flamboyant “commitment to the LGBTQIA+ community by stopping construction and investment in the state of Florida until hateful legislation is repealed” as well as “stopping any efforts to move employees to Florida office locations, ensuring employee safety and employment retention. Guaranteeing no employee will be terminated when denying relocation to FL.”

Florida Republican Governor, and hopefully the next president, Ron DeSantis was having none of it. “For Disney to come out and put a statement and say that the bill should have never passed and that they are going to actively work to repeal it, I think, one, was fundamentally dishonest, but, two, I think that crossed the line,” DeSantis said at a Tuesday press conference. “This state is governed by the interests of the people of the state of Florida. It is not based on the demands of California corporate executives. They do not run this state. They do not control this state.”
