Reason Cannot Prevail Against An Irrational Opposition

Disney recently fired a successful actress (she's a Star Wars kick-butt) with a lot of fans for comparing the hatred of conservatives with Nazis hating Jews.
So why give Disney any of your hard-earned? Any complaint you care to make will be viewed as racist or some other "-ist" anyway.
For a category me dino at first thought of Philosophy. No, this is more about the Bizarro World culture we're stuck with these days.

Disney has been a looter gang for decades.
They paid to get a law to extend their copyright on the mouse and everything else.
That means that today's artists are paying royalties to great grandchildren of song writers
because it helped Diznee's lawyers keep making money off things that should have been open source 20 years ago.
Looting lawyers getting richer on unearned revenues. Scum.
I don't think they've had an original thought in 40 years.

  Disney has morphed totally into a left wing extremist propaganda machine. I was subjected to it for 10 days running recently while visiting a relative with a 4 year old. Everything that company turned out seemed to be specifically created to spin the left's message in one way or another. I walked away from it numerous times without causing open warfare in my family. Maye it's just me being too sensitive (sensible?), but Disney crap will not be shown in my house. I'll leave it at that.

    Wow. When I was growing up, Disney was the one, sure "safe" choice. (editing to add: at least to those of us who didn't know better) Those days are gone.

      Growing up in the '50s and 60s Disney entertainment was wonderful. Great stories and characters with no PC crap.

  Me dino was channel surfing while eating my lunch today, well, yesterday. Now it's 6 past midnight.
  Can't remember if it was on Fox News or OAN, but quick mention was made of a 2020 live Disney adaption of a Disney 1998 animated flick called Mulan about a heroic woman warrior.
  It was described as a "Chinese propaganda movie filmed"~~I heard it said~~"next door to a slave labor camp." As the SNL Church Lady used to say, "Well, isn't that special."

    From what I recall, it wasn’t well received in China. The movie attendees didn’t like it. A big bust for dysnee
