I predict a very harsh backlash against Disney on several fronts.

I predict about the same as the backlash against Chick Fil a

We will see but since the gays and other assorted freaks of nature don't have as many kids I hope Disney turns into a Chucky Cheese-like Whirlstar destination.

Most people are not bigoted hate-filled people so they will not care what Disney is doing in support of gay people.

There are just not as many people like you as you think there are.

Disney is an American company that does business internationally

Why do you hate free markets?

Why do you feel governments should be able to break up corporations because that corporation hurt their feelings?

Because multi national corporations destroy the free market.

I love small corporations. But huge multi nationals are powerful enough that they buy the politicians who then pass laws that destroy those corporations business competitors.

Yes we will. so far none of these things ever have any real effect, maybe this time you will be right....the whole blind squirrel thing and all

LOL....You sure do seem awfully "concerned" that a multi-national corporation that decided to take a giant shit where it eats might lose some money.

Not in the least. Over the last 20 or 30 years I have seen a lot of these boycott movements, none of them have amounted to a hill of beans.

Reminds me of when I was still in High School. Ozzy was coming to town and after a month of ticket sales less than 1/3 had been sold. Only of few of us even knew who he was. The some parent found out about the bat head biting incident and tired to get him banned from the county. As soon as that happened tickets sold out in less than 1 day. Once teens found out their parents did not like Ozzy they all wanted to go see him.

What movement? It's just something I decided to do on my own.....Damn, if it's turned into a "movement" then so much the better.

I did not figure it would set too well and to be honest I think a lot of folks are only too happy to divest themselves of all things Disney. Everything they do is designed to part people from their money.

The same can be said of every company that ever existed, it is the whole point of having a business.

Laura Ingraham Threatens Disney, Apple With Corporate Restructuring

"During a monologue on the influence of companies like Disney and Apple, Laura Ingraham on Friday made comments that might have resembled those of progressive icon Teddy Roosevelt, if the nation’s 26th president were alive today. Those companies have become sort of a bane to conservatives lately, in particular Disney, which has stated its opposition to Florida’s recently passed legislation that opponents have dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay” law. “These businesses should really learn this lesson now before it’s too late: Stay in your lane,” said Ingraham -- Ingraham continued: “The antitrust division at [the Department of] Justice needs to begin the process of considering which American companies need to be broken up once and for all."



About time someone finally said what needed to be said....If these companies want to use their so-called "free speech" to support things that an incoming Conservative government doesn't like -- that company should have their government protections and special privileges taken away -- that is what a true free market demands. So if a company like Coca-Cola wants to spout off about a bill that protects kids against child raping tranny-pedos like the Florida bill does; then the government needs to issue a warning for Coca-Cola to shut up or they should be broken up to the point that company is unrecognizable....That is the only way to truly increase wages and properly address economic anxiety.

Unless a company is breaking laws, their corporate boards have a right to do business as they see proper.

I don't care what Laura said, my opinion and hers can be mutually exclusive. I don't believe in a forced restructuring of a business. I do believe though that corporate boards and shareholders must have a larger say and more power, not just big shareholders.

My position is that people should organize to keep corporations OUT of politics, by punishing them with lost sales if they do. Also, no business should receive a dime from taxpayers if they interfere in the democratic process. If Joes Burger Place wants to weigh in, go ahead, it's privately owned. Corparations are publicly owned, and too many CEOs are misrepresenting it's shareholders and risking sales.

Calling me a conservative isn't entirely accurate. I'm a libertarian to varying degrees on an issue by issue and policy by policy basis.

If you don;t like what a corporation does then sell your stock. A corporate board has a responsibility to its stake holders and employees to support public policies that do not harm the corporation.

Piss off

this aint the ghetto so try to improve your language while you are here

Are you sure?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Did people really ever buy into that? A company is there to make money, nothing else.

Also, as I said there are really not as many hate filled bigots in the country as you think there is.

Most of us out here do not hate gays nor think they are not "wholesome"

LOL.....Unless I miss my guess the sight of a guy getting his shit pushed in by another guy would not pass as "wholesome" for most folks.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Just understand what you dic suckers want to stop special treatment over.....

i don't think corporations should get any special treatment....however, it is interesting that Conservatives will go against everything they claim to stand for once a corporation doesn't go along with their passion for persecuting minorities...

You can't understand why parents don't want you fascists sexually grooming their 4 and 5 year old children?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

LOL.....Unless I miss my guess the sight of a guy getting his shit pushed in by another guy would not pass as "wholesome" for most folks.

I would say that watching anyone have sex is not going to pass as wholesome by most folks. That is why people hide their porn usage.

Most people don't watch porn. That may change with the next generation, but at the moment far less than 50% of the population watches porn.

Why would major corporations weigh in on such matters unrelated to their business?

It genuinely is time for a counter-activism movement, it would have to be lead, organized and funded by someone (or many) with deep pockets to the point they can advertise on T.V and theatres. Have professional reps. go on talk shows and say their peace. Businesses need to be politically neutral across all issues except those impacting national security.

"Company X supported a bill when pressured by the radicals, when you buy their products, you indirectly help fund and support these radicals. Stop buying their products".

"Why would major corporations weigh in on such matters unrelated to their business?"

Corrupt GREEDY major corporations are ran by liberal gays using other libs as USEFUL IDIOTS to push their sexual agendas along with their tax evasion and government subsidies for their corporations (GREED).

someone here said it better than I can

libs go way beyond not hating gays, aka tolerance or pity

you put them on a pedestal and demand that the rest of society conform to them
