Lippoutou 4,304 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Guys, obviously Dinsey and big corporations are hypocrites.. duh But on the other hand y'all are naive if not dumb if you could ever believe this is genuine. Of course they only care about money and it's just promo stunts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

God damn this ignorance about Disney's LGBT work is infuriating. Disney's LGBT advocacy is not done behind closed doors, it's been very public for years. Just because you people are more concerned over "representation" in some mediocre movies and tv shows does change this fact. Do the research and stop believing everything that "woke" Twitter tries to shove down your throat. Ya'll are no different than MAGA's who believe everything Trump says You remind me that it's such a wonderful thing to love. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worked for Disney for three years and they are without a doubt the most gay friendly company in the States. Their activism is genuine and has been deep rooted for quite a while. They do a ton of charity work in Orlando and contributed a ton after Pulse. Stay pressed haters Of course it's pure, genuine and innocent, it has nothing to do with the money. That's why it's the biggest company and it owns practically everything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I've provided facts about how inclusive this company is, all the work they've done, and they ways they are changing to be more inclusive going forward. I even gave a link to unbiased article that deep dives into the company's not so magical relationships with LGBT people. Sorry to say but it's not a process that involves the Fairy Godmother waving her magic wand. At this point you all are choosing to be willfully ignorantly on the matter. You remind me that it's such a wonderful thing to love. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RahrahWitch 6,937 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Not surprising tbh, for so many corporations they waited till it was profitable to publicly support the LGBT Community and only in certain parts of the world. That's why gay things still to this day get edited out or scrapped for audiences in parts of the world, It's sad that money comes before representation.

Not The Real Gaga 7,447 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Really weird discussion. Disney, like the whole film industry, has much work to do when it comes to diversity and representation. Though the situation is improving, it can't be denied that LGBTQ-inclusion in their most public outings - thus blockbusters ranging from Marvel to Star Wars and to Disney live-action - is very rare and if done, very minimal so they can cut out those parts in countries that ban LGBTQ-content. The things they do behind the scenes, and in their theme parks (only in the West, I suppose) are good, but do not balance the lack of representation in blockbuster outings at all.

It's such a fantastic thing to see and it brings me such joy knowing that the LGBT+ youth today, despite living in a backwards area, now have a safe haven. I'm very excited to participate in these events!! A lot has changed since I last lived here ten years ago   Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a difference between crying about not having a gay character in a movie and having a safe space in a rural Republican area, where a transgender woman was recently murdered.  Only white, elite LGBT care about such trite things. I can assure you these kids that are literally trying to just exist here don't care whether or not they can see themselves in a tv show You remind me that it's such a wonderful thing to love.
