I've found that people generally get upset when the change means that whatever they were enjoying in the past as innocent fun was really "sinful" in some way--racist, sexist, phobic. The natural response is to defend yourself against an accusation, right?
There are so many trolls on this board lately that I can’t even count them all.
You need to get a grip. Your above post and your previous posts on this subject are totally ridiculous. I wonder if you would be saying all this garbage if you were posting under your real name instead of hiding behind a name of your choosing and a picture that is not you. Would you be proud to post stuff like this?
The share price and its fall says otherwise.
Disney is not bleeding money.
Do they picture amputees on parking spots for the handicapped?
So, these wheelchair kids represent all disabilities?
I would say this to anyone in person.
What’s ridiculous about representation?
I’m guessing you don’t have a disability or a child with a disability.
I can’t speak for all kids with disabilities, but my disabled kid? Yes, she does.
Regardless, your posts on this subject have been repellent and if you don’t recognize that, I can’t help you.
There are people posting here who have children with disabilities who dispute this. Are you saying they aren't being honest or sincere or do you think their experience with this is not the norm?
Show me where I said “that’s their purpose.” I choose my words carefully. Read them carefully or not at all.
This is insightful. I would add, however, that one needn’t feel guilty or shamed when circumstances compel some sort of reconsideration or self-reflection. I loved the old auction scene in Pirates and didn’t really think about the issues it raised until Disney made the decision to change it. Looking at it again, I’m kind of shocked that it was created in the first place—imagine the reaction today from people of all political stripes if a family theme park designed a scene depicting the sale of captured women into sexual servitude. Also surprising is my previous failure to see anything amiss, though rather than feel bad about it, I welcome the fact that learning is a lifelong process. I have seen the fruits of this process in my own lifetime—gay marriage was almost unthinkable a few short decades ago—and would hate to live in a world where such shifts took longer to come about than they already do.
You really are clueless aren't you. The share price is a direct reflection of how a company is doing, and when Disney missed their earnings by nearly 50% it was really beyond bleeding it was as if someone cut their jugular.
Clearly you’re the one that is clueless and has no idea how the stock market works. There is no direct connection between share price and revenue/profit/success. They are related… yes, but not directly connected. Disney is not bleeding. They aren’t loosing money. The fact that analysts wanted their profits to be higher doesn't mean there profits didn’t exist.
Please write “black people” and not “blacks.” The latter has historically negative connotations and can be offensive.
