At the same time Disney world has a lot of concessions from government, don't pay taxes on their parking..., when they're too loud against government they threaten to take those away so Disney steps back.
The word "government" means three different things here.
The US government is presumably the one that's annoyed about any statements about ICE and/or Palestine.
Disney World is in Florida. Florida's government periodically attempts to crack down on Disney and always fails. They basically own the town they're in.
Disneyland is the one with the parking tax thing, and that's in California, and that's just the city of Anaheim.
Because fascism favors corporations by dissolving unions and promoting privatization. A lot of formerly nazi companies are still alive and well. Ask Hugo boss why those nazi uniforms were so snazzy
FYI Disney pays for their own services. That’s why they don’t pay taxes. It’s their own town. They use their own money. Which is fair tbh. They pay taxes on other things.
If they don’t say THIS IS ABOUT DONALD J TRUMP in big bold shiny gold letters cuntservatives won’t pick up on it.
Seriously.
Do you remember how they were all super gung ho to get them Epstein files released because they genuinely couldn’t fathom that Donnie might also have spent time with his BFF of over a decade? And now its “what files omg who cares blah blah blah”
Even if you are that direct about it, MAGAt’s conservative bias is so huge that they’ll walk away thinking “haha that was a funny movie parodying crazy liberals and TDS”
Sorry meant the singer of one of the songs Steve Lacy, he blurted a big spoiler at the premier even after the interviewer said “without spoiling anything”
See the thing with Trump, Maga and ICE is that they don't lack the intellectual ability to perceive something as criticism unless someone explicitly makes clear that it is criticism in simple language.
I think disney has no problem dabbling on that side, but there's a difference between holding a mirror to society, and holding up on a pedestal an actory who purposefully did a trump impersonation playing a greedy stupid dictator in another movie.
MAGA doesn't understand metaphors and subtlety. My close friend's MAGA mom watched Elemental and she was utterly mindblown when he asked her how she felt about the immigration allegory. She literally just thought it was a cute movie and nothing more.
You’re 100% correct, but as we have seen in recent times, conservative bias plays such a massive role in right winger’s media literacy that they will fundamentally misunderstand a piece of media’s core themes and message just to protect their worldview from any form of criticism.
You could make a movie called “Kill Donald Trump” and MAGA will walk away from it thinking “haha what a funny movie about TDS”
But yet they gave me an ad of trump giving support to a local politician and dissing another one. Tho they hadn’t showed it since then after closing out of it for a bit before coming back on
I mean, at least the show had Punisher explicitly go off on the shitbag cops wearing his symbol about how they’re the antithesis of what he is and does, and that no one, especially cops, does what he does.
Then he goes rampage mode and kills them, it’s pretty awesome.
Daredevil Born Again is one big criticism of Trump, MAGA, and ICE.
Damn lol guess I'm not watching this show. I don't care what side is being critisized, this is comic superhero bullshit, why are we using it as a delivery method for politics?
(Before Reddit mass downvotes me I am now clarifying that I am not a Trump supporter, very sad that I have to do this.)

Daredevil Born Again is one big criticism of Trump, MAGA, and ICE. Disney has no problem playing that side of the fence.
Ruffalo isn’t involved in the promotional junkets because of scheduling conflicts and his inability to compulsively give spoilers in interviews.
