Disney Lawsuit Against Florida Dismissed
Yet another ruling confirming the rule of law and not favoring one giant company.
A federal judge dismissed Disney’s lawsuit against Florida over the state’s revocation of the special district that had allowed Disney to self-govern. Cliffs: For decades Disney ran its own government with little or no oversight by anyone, and no elections. DeSantis ended that and Disney sued. Disney lost. |

Disney is still pushing woke movies out like nothing happened. Guess they need to lose a few more billion $ to figure it out.

It's sad what Disney has done to Marvel and Star Wars. Completely destroyed the core of both.

We used to take our kids and grandkids to Disney World every 2-3 years. We spent tens of thousands of dollars doing it. We had FL resident annual passes. We will never go there again after the way Disney ****ed over FL residents during the COVID scamdemic. |

Disney failed when it went from a Christian controlled company to something else. That's not to say that Walt produced overtly Christian themed content, but it was wholesome, family friendly content. Iger started their decline, and it's just snowballed downhill since.

My buddy insisted that he and his wife take us out to Disney for
dinner, I have never been to "The happiest Place on Earth". Well, dinner was awful and the mono-rail broke down twice. Close this hell hole down. |

In general, Disney has not aged well. At the same time, they ended up in a bit of a culture shift that left them in a bad spot.
In their heyday, the park appealed to kids from very small to much older. As time passed, older kids lost interest in anything that wasn't a video game or on a tablet or phone. That left the entire park to adults and small kids. Hard to maintain that business model. Enter the gay days, the bars, Epcot, and ultimately wokeness, just to stay relevant. The park and Disney changed a lot less than the demographic did. I would not have wanted to be in their position. |
