I just looked into this, and yeah, Disney has definitely tried to build their own cities. They had the original EPCOT concept in the 60s, interesting to think about how these experiments could probably be the influence of Thiel’s project, I’m guessing he will try to use a similar framework but this time with the administration and population full support.
Indeed, I’m just quite cynical when it comes to Disney due to their recent lobbying of homophobic politicians, but yeah, right now everything is better than the other options…
Truly interesting point, It directly made me think of an article I read some days ago about the possibility of “Freedom cities” run by corporations… It could definitely be the door they use to make this kind of future possible.
They already own the borders and the sea, they already control what can and cannot enter.
Gaza is a ghetto inside their quasi-state.
What this war criminal meant by “annexation” is nothing more than total annihilation.
Disney represents 40B$ and constitutes a big chunk of Florida economy, they cannot afford what Tesla is going through, so sure he might not personally give a fuck, but DeSantis and the other cultists sure do.
At this point, they don’t need martial law to call off elections anymore, it’s already done.
I mean they do lobby for republican lawmakers and recently donated more than $80k worth to individuals who actively supported the “Don’t Say Gay” bill…
They made a deal with DeSantis, meaning this move would not happen without consulting him first. From my understanding, due to the backlash against American companies, especially Tesla, Disney can get in hot water financially. They export American soft power all over the world, so it is important not to tarnish their appearance especially in a context where there is trump in power, imagine if tomorrow they decided to stop DEI for good; the Disney Parks around the world and Disney World would get hit financially as well as their movie industry, thus also hitting Florida’s economy centered around fun parks and tourism. It’s some kind of abusive co-dependency.
Republicans are inherently anti-democracy since the civil war… How about acting on it rather than promoting decorum and false promises my friend? How about doing something? You guys act fast when it comes to swaying the blame away yet never offer any self reflection or any constructive criticism, it’s actually boring. On this thread I’ve been insulted twice just for stating some facts, may I remind you trumpster is president of the US?
Sincerely, good bye…
Do you remember the weakness throughout the Garland nomination? The decision to overturn Roe v. Wade was made by a 5-4 vote, with Chief Justice Roberts supporting the Mississippi law but not agreeing to overturn Roe entirely, if Garland would had replace Scalia there was next to no chance to totally repeal it. Let’s say it was an exceptional and unprecedented move by the GOP under Obama, after the first trump term, Biden was elected, leak showed the SC to be almost entirely corrupt, he never acted on it, because dEcOrUm.
The protest were… not european like, to say the least. The american are numbs to what is happening to them but sure keep on deflecting whenever you have the occasion that will save the country.
Edit: I’m 100% against the GOP, no demonstration of their bad faith is needed anymore but it is necessary to hold democrats accountable to the fatal errors they have been committing and I never blamed entirely Obama he just shares the blame.
You missed my point. It was always clear for +90% of leftists that trump was worst.
You will not feel betrayed by your enemies but you will feel betrayed by your allies is the point.
Still there is no interest in discussing why this demographic felt betrayed, democrats were angry when trump backstabbed Zelensky rightly so, yet you cannot see how it was the same thing when the democrats were collaborating with the extermination of the people they were supposed to protect? with the extreme violence lashed out on the protest? The harassment? The doxxing? The clear avoidance of international sanctions etc.
Like come on, it would not have been my choice to not vote or vote trump but at some point we should reflect on the why and understand that the democrats acted in a shitty way and betrayed their voter base, it’s as simple as that.
Why didn’t Obama secured the Supreme Court, he had the opportunity? Oh yeah… DeCoRuM. Keep deflecting, but the truth is that the US political system is sick, continue playing ball and you will never know freedom before it’s too late.
How did the democrats secured Roe vs Wade when they were in charge again?
I agree but in my opinion the truth should still be spoken.
When republicans are in charge
F*ck school shooting, republicans don’t care about children, weapons are harmful for our society, we should be harder on weapons permits and shit
When democrats are in charge (or near election time)
Let’s not talk about the 2nd amendment it’s divisive and not productive we need to find workaround in the hypothetical future maybe we can “ban” military grade weapons to shut up the inconvenients (+ lots of blabla about non existent things)
keep on the good joke rather than acting and doing anything productive… Ah my bad, I’m too harsh, you guys atleast succeeded at securing abortion or trans rights… oh… wait…
Stop deflecting, own your culture and what it stands for, it’s the only way forward.
How convenient…
Edit: When you’re debating with someone and they resort to call you mentally ill, it does say something about the nature of what they are trying to defend. Food for thought.
It’s an American problem, stop digressing…
This is not about “DEI” it’s about marketing and demographic, in short economic interest, personally i wouldn’t throw them flowers.
The dishonesty you are displaying throughout this thread is truly worrying…
The individual was probably referencing Disney World and their unique governance arrangements with the state of Florida mainly the CFTOD.
