Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: This is interesting. We've talked about there's a change in
- 0:06Speaker 1: the air, right Trump getting elected, and it just feels
- 0:09Speaker 1: like there's a change in the air, that the world
- 0:12Speaker 1: is healing. Things are becoming more sane, People are becoming
- 0:15Speaker 1: more sane. Right. People are feeling freer to just speak
- 0:18Speaker 1: their mind again. Corporations, corporations are no longer feeling the
- 0:22Speaker 1: need to kneel at the crazy you know, metaphysical infinite
- 0:28Speaker 1: series of abstractions, cult religion ideas anymore. And here we have,
- 0:34Speaker 1: here we have Disney's Pixar cuts trans storyline from upcoming
- 0:38Speaker 1: series says, parents get this, Parents would rather discuss issue
- 0:44Speaker 1: on their own terms. Now that just feels totally sane
- 0:49Speaker 1: and responsible and reasonable, doesn't it. That's a aren't we
- 0:54Speaker 1: used to just being shamed by companies like Disney? Are
- 0:58Speaker 1: we used to them just shaming stigmatizing us, marginalizing us
- 1:03Speaker 1: to use some leftist words there, that's what we're used to.
- 1:06Speaker 1: Now they're just saying totally normal, reasonable things, totally responsible things.
- 1:11Speaker 1: That's weird. I wonder what, I wonder what happened. Maybe
- 1:14Speaker 1: there's something that happened. I don't know, Like maybe analyst
- 1:18Speaker 1: estimates that Disney has lost nine hundred million on last
- 1:22Speaker 1: eight studio releases. That could have something to do with it.
- 1:26Speaker 1: I bet, I bet that could have some to do it.
- 1:29Speaker 1: Losing almost a billion dollars. By the way, that was
- 1:32Speaker 1: from twenty twenty three, so they've probably lost a billion
- 1:35Speaker 1: by now, right. But there's a change in the air,
- 1:38Speaker 1: and it's good. It's good. It was only a few
- 1:41Speaker 1: short years ago that Disney executives fought back against Florida's
- 1:45Speaker 1: Parental Rights and Education Bill, claiming, along with the Biden administration,
- 1:51Speaker 1: that it was the Don't Say Gay bill. There was
- 1:55Speaker 1: nothing in it about There was nothing in the bill
- 1:57Speaker 1: about not saying gay or anything. If they all knew it,
- 2:00Speaker 1: by the way, the media all knew it, didn't care,
- 2:02Speaker 1: just kept calling it that. Producers said they were proud
- 2:06Speaker 1: of implementing their not so secret maybe better if you
- 2:10Speaker 1: you might have been better for the bottom line. If
- 2:12Speaker 1: you just kept its secrets, I mean, still wouldn't have worked.
- 2:15Speaker 1: You still would have lost an enormous amount of money
- 2:17Speaker 1: because people aren't aren't stupid, but they're not so secret
- 2:21Speaker 1: gay agenda in films and projects, and the company hosted
- 2:24Speaker 1: the World LGBTQ Summit, So some things I get. There's
- 2:29Speaker 1: a change in the air, isn't there. Now? After years
- 2:32Speaker 1: of parent complaints about these sexualized, identitarian themed content, Disney
- 2:37Speaker 1: has started to take the hint. The Mega Studio has
- 2:40Speaker 1: decided to cut a trans storyline from Pixar's Win or
- 2:45Speaker 1: Lose series, saying that perhaps parents would prefer discussing these
- 2:49Speaker 1: matters with their children on their own terms. Yeah, maybe
- 2:55Speaker 1: maybe that's the totally sane thing to think when it
- 2:58Speaker 1: comes to animated content for a younger audience. We recognize
- 3:02Speaker 1: that many parents would prefer to discuss certain subjects with
- 3:05Speaker 1: their children on their own terms. And Timeline said Ay,
- 3:08Speaker 1: Disney spokesperson, See, like a couple of years ago, they
- 3:11Speaker 1: just would have called them all bigots. So we've already noticed,
- 3:16Speaker 1: and Disney's already noticed that, Hey, we're losing lots and
- 3:20Speaker 1: lots of money putting out this work garbage that people
- 3:23Speaker 1: don't like. Huh. I wonder if we should do something
- 3:26Speaker 1: differently now. I think the problem in the past has
- 3:28Speaker 1: been is that they had to just keep doing it
- 3:31Speaker 1: even though they were losing money. They felt that they
- 3:33Speaker 1: had to. Maybe it was blackrock money, and black rock
- 3:36Speaker 1: is backtracking now apparently on all the ESG stuff and
- 3:41Speaker 1: the DEI, but also with a Trump majority, when he
- 3:45Speaker 1: wins the majority of the popular vote, he wins the
- 3:47Speaker 1: electro College, he's got the House, he's got the Senate.
- 3:51Speaker 1: I guess that was the final signal, right that like, okay,
- 3:54Speaker 1: you know what, actually like more people don't like this
- 3:58Speaker 1: stuff than do, so maybe it's time to cut it out.
- 4:02Speaker 1: Maybe it's safe for us now. Seems like it wasn't
- 4:05Speaker 1: just obviously wasn't just losing money because they kept doing
- 4:08Speaker 1: it and losing more money. There was something else. It
- 4:11Speaker 1: was the zeitgeist, right, it was the Overton window. It
- 4:14Speaker 1: had to shift first, and it has. I'm going to
- 4:16Speaker 1: change in the air. Things are different now. Big tech
- 4:19Speaker 1: is going to go, Big tech is visited. They're all
- 4:22Speaker 1: the heads of big tech are coosing up to Trump.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Now something's changed. It's all right to be normal again.
- 4:27Speaker 1: It's all right to have normal, sensible, reasonable, realistic views
- 4:33Speaker 1: of the world. Now it's actually okay. Now we're getting
- 4:36Speaker 1: this signal. We're getting this signal loud and clear. It's
- 4:39Speaker 1: okay to accurately describe the world again. That's something. So
- 4:45Speaker 1: they're cutting out gender theory from their Kids show now
- 4:49Speaker 1: good good. Yeah, Maybe don't push like every you know,
- 4:54Speaker 1: tragic social media fad slash far left article of faith
- 5:00Speaker 1: on a world of impressionable children. Maybe don't do that.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Maybe that's not your job, Disney. You know. And I'll
- 5:06Speaker 1: tell you what. If you're going to just make a
- 5:08Speaker 1: sequel where like the main character has like a host
- 5:12Speaker 1: of like serious medical issues that is sterile and suicidal
- 5:15Speaker 1: and suing the people that did it to them, you
- 5:18Speaker 1: can make the movie. Then if you make the sequel,
- 5:21Speaker 1: the realistic sequel, how about that? So the world is
- 5:25Speaker 1: healing clearly. The world is clearly healing, and it's a
- 5:29Speaker 1: good thing anyway. That's all I'm going to say about that.
