This plus News Max onboarding. Full fascist support. F Disney.

So we're ALL on the same page here: Walt Disney himself was, along with many other rich white fucks of the day, an open supporter of the Reich, and just like many of them as well, he continued supporting his team long after it was passé — simply by distracting the starry-eyed masses with more shiny. Ford, Coke, the whole lot.

We are livestock to them. Human Resources is just fresh title for the age-old playbook, How To Serve Man. 🤌🏼

What do you mean by News Max onboarding - did Disney buy NewsMax?! ..or am I misunderstanding?

[-] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Disney is a corporation, therefore it is fascist as long as fascism is profitable.

everyone is bending the knee now, and y'all should be scared. rich people with loud voices don't normally shut up when there's shit to be said. something else is going on here, and we're not privy to it.

You have more faith in humanity than me. I think it's plenty normal for people to bend the knee to what they think will keep them safe and wealthy and it's not their own sacrifice.

So now we just know who they think is gonna win.

Who they think, only one side is fighting the other is like maybe my peaceful protest on the weekend we'll help this time. It's a war that the left has already conceded defeat. Like project 2025 said the next revolution we'll be bloodless if the left allows it.

you're saying the idea i am knowingly trying to fight. maybe it's the hand i write with, maybe it's my ideas, but i've always been gauche.

and we should fight nihilism and hedonism like our very future depends on it. look at the stats. and i'm the last person you'd want to encourage to reproduce, and yet here we are.

where are we? white people (i'm white, too) don't understand genes.

Threats to family and friends, most likely.

Feed the poor

Walt Disney would never have endorsed this except in his 1938 cartoon “Nazi Superheroes are Our Superiors.”

I found a bunch of his propaganda from back then, still have them too

[-] DreamAccountant@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago

"You women talk about women's issues, but don't mention the cause of the issues" - Asshole conservative.

The View is now irrelevant. If people can't trust that the staff aren't being forced to spew propaganda, or they're being censored - then they won't watch. They need to stand up to the corpos, or the show is already pre-cancelled because of irrelevancy.

[-] RustyShackleford@literature.cafe 6 points 2 months ago

They're basically be canning themselves up so the raiders will have a nice setup when they invade. They're doing all the prep work. I know I'll survive.

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

The main character always survives.

[-] RustyShackleford@literature.cafe 3 points 2 months ago

Meh, I'm not the main character, I'm shooting for finally cutting loose. You behave your entire life, the second the rules are gone, it's going to be Fallout baby.

[-] altphoto@lemmy.today 4 points 2 months ago

Let's all point our vaginas and manginas towards our great Orange leader. He'll know what to do best.

[-] Justathroughdaway@lemmy.world -1 points 2 months ago

I don't blame him. It's about time they get some new material. Not like anyone would notice.
