CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 31, 2022
I REMEMBER – AND PROBABLY YOU DO, TOO – WHEN THE NAME DISNEY STOOD FOR GOOD FAMILY TIME AND VALUES MOST AMERICANS AGREED WITH. THERE WAS NO CURSING IN A DISNEY FILM. NO SEX SCENES. THE THEME PARKS WERE CLEAN AND UPHELD WHAT WE USED TO CALL “FAMILY VALUES.”
NO MORE. FOR THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS, THE DISNEY ORGANIZATION HAS BEEN THROWING OFF ITS STELLAR PAST TO EMBRACE THE LATEST FADS.
THE LATEST: THE PRESIDENT OF DISNEY, A WOMAN NAMED KAREY BURKE, SAYS THE COMPANY WILL NOW CREATE MORE INCLUSIVE CHARACTERS, WHICH MEANS LGBTQIA. HER COMMENTS CAME AFTER FLORIDA GOVERNOR RON DESANTIS SIGNED A PARENTS RIGHTS BILL INTO LAW THAT FORBIDS TEACHING ABOUT GENDER AND SEXUAL ORIENTATION IN KINDERGARTEN THROUGH THIRD GRADE.
DISNEY THEME PARKS WILL NO LONGER ASSUME THAT LITTLE GIRLS WANT TO BE CALLED “PRINCESSES” AND GREETERS WILL NO LONGER SAY “BOYS AND GIRLS” OR “LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,” BUT WELCOME DREAMERS. SOUNDS LIKE THE WORD USED IN REFERENCE TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
BY THIS ACTION I SUSPECT DISNEY HAS TOLD A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF ITS BASE THEY ARE NO LONGER WANTED AT WHAT USED TO BE A MAGIC KINGDOM, IS BECOMING A POLITICAL ONE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
