Disney's Agenda Leaked

Off Topic Politics & World Issues

Question about the original topic at hand:

What disney movie is pushing ‘far left radical values’? Shapiro is so non-specific about actual Disney content, I’m not sure what he’s seen on screen that he’s so upset about. I’ve watched essentially every Disney movie for kids over the last decade, and a whoooole lot of their shows, as I have a 7 year old at home and we watch a lot of movies together. I can’t think of a single one that came across this way.

There is exactly one short I’ve seen, on Disney+, that is directly about a gay couple. It’s a pixar short called ‘out’. So if we’re going to feel like we need to suddenly pre-screen every bit of content Disney puts out forever and ever based on… 5 minutes of a pixar short… I guess? Doesn’t register with me.

Also, my son enjoyed the short, and it sparked a productive conversation to explain what it was about. Somehow, he was able to understand a gay relationship on screen, and not suddenly lose all of his childish innocence that Shapiro is suggesting that Disney is stealing from our kids. WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED???

You are the father and it is your responsibility to explain those things

The whole point is just that

it is not the teachers, neighbors, coworkers or disney…it is the parents

thats what the bill in florida is all about

There is a Catholic intellectual who made this the topic of an entire book. Perhaps this can steer you in the right direction for your answer.

I won’t mention his name or the title on here.

25

Well, now I’m all kinds of curious as to why you won’t name him.

26

Maybe I am cynical, but I actually think the bill addresses a non-issue. Where many teachers really discussing this stuff in K-3?

I think it was meant to stir up the base with culture war issues before a mid-term. In the second video, it appears that was Desantis’ motive. He could have mentioned the meat and potatoes of the bill, but he instead goes on to make accusations of grooming of kids and such.

I find point 6 and 7 to be rather disturbing personally, but at least this is talking about parents having the conversation rather than teachers.

Still, there are numerous stories of teachers pushing non-binary gender roles onto children that are too young for such content.

No, it was meant to stop sick, perverted people from teaching this crap to preschoolers

I totally get that. I wasn’t addressing the bill at all. This thread is titled ‘Disneys agenda leaked’, and the video in the first post of Ben Shapiro is about the product Disney is putting out, not the Florida Bill. I’m guessing you didn’t actually watch the video, otherwise you would have known what I was addressing. Ben Shapiro specifically said that he feels he needs to start prescreening all the Disney content released now, because he’s afraid Disney content will be pushing far left radical values. THAT is what I was responding to. The Florida Bill was not on my mind when I wrote my post.

I guess I just have my doubts about the frequency of such discussions. It doesn’t seem like a topic for K-3. I thought teachers in that age group generally stuck to pretty laid out curriculum?

I heard more weird sex stuff in Sunday school than I did in regular school TBH. Some wild stories were covered there. Noah’s sons getting him drunk and lying with him type of things.

Actually, no. The bill does not include preschoolers.

I can’t speak for Florida, but it’s definitely not a thing in Texas public schools.

Teachers are supposed to stick to a fairly typical curriculum, but school boards are allowed to introduce new subjects in WHAT and HOW schools teach. So when overly leftist school boards hop on the LGBTQ+#$%^& train and incorporate it into early childhood education, the teachers are required to do so.

I’m not religious and refuse to listen to stories about sex from those who are required to abstain from it. No comment regarding sunday school teachings.

He is politically incorrect and pisses people off.

I will mention Dr. Stephen Baskerville, whose book of the same name of this podcast I have recommended numerous times. He is politically incorrect but not nearly as much.

34

There is a possibility it is a real issue, and if so, I would change my thoughts on the matter (that it is more of a political stunt to rile up the base). I haven’t seen much info quantifying the issue. Is it 0.01% of teachers that bring it up, or 5%. The latter would be worth addressing IMO.

Imo kindergarten is preschool

Point taken that the video has nothing to do with the bill

But disney and their workers have inserted themselves into the protesting of the bill along with incorporating woke policies into their parks…they are now being trained not to say boys and girls

therefore my reasoning for mention of the bill

37

Even 0.01% is too many

38

You could definitely make that argument, but you’re not going to do better than that on any controversial issue. There will always be a teacher here and there that will break the rules to teach what they want. Plenty of teachers are incorporating Christianity into their lessons in Texas when they aren’t supposed to. It happens. And plenty of parents will always be furious about it. But the best we can do is limit bad teaching practices to a fraction of a percentage.

39

I can agree to that, and I don’t want to use a fallacy of relative privation, but here I think it makes sense, since law makers only have do much time and resources. Is this really what they should be spending tax payer money on to enact? I really don’t think so, unless the issue is much larger than it seems to be, which I haven’t seen evidence of.

Thought that was Lot and his daughters.
