The Governor can’t take his bat and go home so he’s taking a swing at Disney’s theme park audience.
With all the years that Donald Duck has been running around without pants, why didn’t the State say something? Minnie and Mickey: Living in sin all these years? Tinker bell: a woke little fairy who spoke to kids? Come on Tallahassee, take that jackboot and squash any and all opposition to your onerous rules.
Disney, home of the ’Happiest Place on Earth’ was taken to the woodshed by the State of Florida when it dared respond with compassion to a Statewide law restricting free speech as it pertains to information about 7% of the U.S. population or about 25 million people. Information about black history, books selected by any random upset parent, and a push to demonize immigrants and ship them wholesale to other States have become the norm here. Good thing we don’t have to worry about anyone (Yes, anyone! Any age, any mental capacity) being able to purchase a weapon of mass destruction and tote it on the streets.
Let’s eliminate all thought processes from the equation. It has been said that Disney is ‘grooming’ children’. The obvious answer is YES!!! That’s their job! They have been grooming children since Mickey was a steamboat captain in that original cartoon. (Steamboat Willie, the first synchronized sound cartoon) All those kids have come away with happy memories!
Adhering to new rules governing its status as an erstwhile Independent Special District, Disney announced some basic changes to their characters and themes.
Content warning: your Disney theme park characters will change, so in a nod to its newly minted status, and since Donald Duck is still not wearing pants, they’ll outfit him in a modified Scot’s kilt when doing his walkabout in the park. Hopefully, his new state minders will make allowances for a stiff wind. Some theme songs like ‘Zip A Dee Doo Dah’ will be changed. When you hear a song phrase like ‘Zip A Dee Doo Dah’ they think that its, A, a meaningless nonsense lyric, B, a Satanic call to arms, or C, A meaningless nonsense lyric.
Those who look for Woke signals in Disney songs, look no further than The Bare Necessities from Disney’s The Jungle Book. Any ‘anti-wokers’ will immediately identify the title as speaking in code about being naked in the forest with animals (Furries) which is verboten even in fantasy land! Was it the personal pronoun thing that’s gotten people so upset?
Sure, we’re all different! We’ve all come here from other places and that’s what makes us special. We’re like soup with many ingredients; and if you eliminate the ‘extras’ it becomes a little too bland. Don’t you like colorful?
Will we see Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo morph into Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Banned?
