    "WE WERE NEVER SWEET ON IT": Americans Sour on Disney’s LGBTQ Agenda.

    Disney's Propagandizing Isn't Popular:
    Moms are especially displeased with the indoctrination crap:

    18% that don't think it makes a difference is not insignificant.
    That leaves 11% unattributed, and certainly opposition, while stronger, is not overwhelming.
    Before this push I would estimate that nearly everyone viewed it favorably. Personally I hate sitting down to be entertained and then realizing that I'm being propagandized. It gives me the same feeling of someone who invites me for a friendly visit and then I realize that they are trying to sell me on something. To me, it makes me view the original invitation as a lie.

    I miss what Disney was.

    I miss the way the U.S. was. After more than 3/4 of a century I have never seen the country as screwed up as it is today.

    Well I've always thought it matters more how it's done than if it's done, but I haven't consumed any children's entertainment in about a decade so I have no idea if it's gotten worse or better. I've found in adult or your pg 13 stuff it can either compliment a story from a different perspective or it can take over a story and derail it.

    I feel like we can find a line somewhere between having to introduce every character with a road runner like screen freeze to display their pronouns, and screaming oddly sexualized metaphors about thing being "rammed down our throat" because two men kissed on tv.

    During the toughest of times, this country has generally seen amazing leadership ability rise out of ordinary people, just when we need it most. I'm confident this time will be the same.

    Disney princesses' love interests have shifted from frogs and cat-gorillas to each other. That's corrupting the minds of children.

    I'm no expert but you can explain it simply by saying it is progressive policy. Most people don't like progressive policy. Only progressives do. Businesses should stay away from political agendas. It can't help business but it can certainly hurt it.

    I would say that it is more of a social agenda than a political one. If they introduce gay characters seamlessly, children will accept others who are not like them. Hell, they might actually look at the character of the person rather than see them only as who they love.

    Disney’s Child-Predator Problem.
    A system of abuse:
    Terrible.
    I wonder how much more of this a thorough outside properly staffed investigation would uncover.

    Kissing an unconscious girl you've never met without consent is ok but God forbid a gay couple exists in the background.

    Definitely political. Otherwise the furor over Disney wouldn't have happened.

    It has become a political issue but if you boil away all the intents from right and left, it is a social issue. One about people being kind, respectful and accepting of one another. In this case, starting at childhood.

    SERVES ‘EM RIGHT: Some Democrats’ ‘Don’t Say Gay’ Gaslighting Is Driving the Middle Class to Republicans.
    Schools branding parents as "terrorists" for speaking up was an incredible shock.
    They do like to drag young children through the sexual sewer at schools.

    The coalition of Leftists in the service of the Democrat Party hit parents with coordinated smears and lies:
    They hate you. They will briefly tolerate you long enough for you to put out for them at the ballot box. After that, or if an election isn't looming, they don't hide their hate and contempt.
    This is who they are. It's who they have been for a very long time, even when they pretended to have any interest in your concerns, They were just stringing you along so that you could put out for them in the voting booth when they wanted something from you.

    In their minds, you either promptly put out when they demand it, or you can get lost. The pretense that you have a relationship with them?
    And they are.
    You don't understand your deal with them.
    And they are winning, nearly every single contested school board race is won by the advocate for the parents.
    This is true.

    Sexually grooming little children over the objections of the State Legislature and the Parents isn't respectful, it's hateful and abusive. By what authority would Edu-Thugs presume to countermand the Legislature and the Parents?

    If you see the inclusion of a gay character on a Disney film as 'sexually grooming children', then we are on two very different planes of thought. Do you have children? What have/would you tell those children about gay people?

    I would tell my child or anyone else that all peaceful people should be tolerated and respected. I would also tell them that the normal, natural order of the world is a man and a woman, who have a bond that can bare children and that is how the natural normal life cycle is meant to be. There is nothing necessarily wrong with not being normal , a lot of things in this world aren’t normal and are accepted. But we shouldn’t pretend that being gay is normal behavior. Tolerated and respected sure, but nope, sorry not normal.

    I turned to the Bible on this one.
    I found “That it’s better to give than receive”.

    Bit seriously what two consenting adults, whether they are straight or gay do in the privacy of their bedroom is no real concern to me. But yes,I do see a difference in heterosexuals having other than just straight sex to spice things up, and gays having any sex. To me one is perfectly normal and the other is not..

    Isn’t it strange how the left isn’t going bonkers about kissing an unconscious girl.

    That’s your opinion.

    I’m not hypocritical because I can tell the difference between a man and woman together, and two people of the same sex.
