#BoycottDisney
I am personally very proud of you.
Friendly reminder, boycotting Disney isn't just a few streaming services. Everything from Spiderman Underoos to the Lego Millenium Falcon should be avoided like the plague. No Aladin on Broadway, or Theme Parks.
When their partners start to complain and their residuals take a hit they'll hear you a lot more clearly than just a drop in subscriptions.
If for some reason you can't cut them off, try to cut back. Disney made 91 billion in 2024, if everyone cuts back by 10% you can carve nearly 10 billion dollars out of their revenue stream.
I kind of feel bad for Americans who were/are very invested in American culture. A lot of people survive on consumerism, so now they have to decide if they want to change their habits (choose ethics and morality) or continue doing their thing (because they’re in denial/need a distraction). It’s not looking good…
There’s zero chance this turns Americans away from consumerism. Hell, even in threads calling for boycotts most people are saying they’re going to still consume Disney products, they just won’t pay for it.
I consume like a motherfucker but I still cancelled Disney Plus and Hulu literally just now. Dropped my MAX/Hulu/Disney bundle and picked MAX back up because from what I understand they had nothing to do with this.

… and let them know why.
I'm kinda annoyed. My sub expired a bit before this and I didn't renew. I was looking at whether to do so this month, but now I don't get to tell them why they aren't getting any more of my money
If you have the apps on your phone, uninstall them. They get uninstall reports (from Apple anyway) and that also helps send a message.
Interesting. Anyone know if that applies to TV's as well?
Likely. It’s all part of the same ecosystem
Ha, I've been boycotting these companies for years.
Arrrrrrrrrrr
Time for boycott level two: don't even steal it.
Not worth the effort. I need tv entertainment but I am not paying it
It's a solid message, though. I dislike you so much that I won't even steal it.

But I already boycotted Disney ): how can I do more damage?
Increase your upload ratio on any Disney properties you consume through BitTorrent, and no not positively discuss any of their properties online.
Rob them of revenue and organic marketing.
Tongue-in-cheek question, serious answer: Stop watching entirely, deny the company your attention, and erode its ability to control our culture. Use the time to learn DIY skills, and meet people IRL.
Probably preaching to the choir here on the Fediverse, but...

History channel?! Where the hell do you expect me to watch pawn stars and American pickers knowing ripping people off like the assholes they are. If that ain’t some real American history.
Walt Disney was a fascist himself. Also there are rumors he was into young children so the fact that Disney now is choosing for the pedo fascists is very fitting.

I pirate their series because it's cheaper.
Just canceled their discount deal and Alien Earth sucks!
I liked alien earth so far. But how much they cram in Disney shit is so obscene. I wouldn't pay for it tho.
I just filed a complaint to ABC. Free speech is important especially in todays world.
Time to cancel my Disney+ account. Fuck em, cowards and bootlicking executive bastards.
Cancelled.
Also FX? No more Sunny, or Wrexham. Fuck the house of the mouse.
glad i dont have any of these the only streaming service needed is vlc and qbitorrent
Sonarr, Radarr, Sabnzbd, and your choice of an indexer = fully automated pirate ship 🦜 🏴☠️
Even without a usenet indexer, public bittorent gets you pretty far.
Also funny how some of the nicest container stacks I've been seeing are fully decked out pirate ships with upwards of 20 containers handling various things. Some dude even published his insane 10k USD 320Tb plex server build on pcpartpicker with consumer priced server grade tech like 28TB HDDs and ECC RAM.
add paramount +, dont fall for the nutrek(eventhough the shows ar epretty bad in respect to pre-jja abrams) tricks to keep the stream alive.

Yarr
To those of you that are canceling Disney+ and looking for animation alternatives, might I suggest anime, (Japanese animation, some based on comics.) Give crunchyroll a try.
Reaching a real person at any of these companies' call centers will cost the company real money.
(It can also hurt the statistics of the call center employee, so it's morally wishy-washy)
sailing the high seas these days. fuck them all.
Sorry I don't know what have Disney done in particular. I've already seen something on it but *I can't understand what happened. * I'm sorry for my ignorance. Hoping someone will answer,
Bonne soirée.. Autumn V.
Jimmy Kimmel made a comment about how the MAGA gang was spinning the shooting of Charlie Kirk as a politically-motivated assassination by "Democrats", when the shooter themselves was part of said MAGA gang and was not, in actual fact, a Democrat.
In response, the FCC threatened ABC and encouraged TV broadcast stations to exclude their programming, and so ABC indefinitely suspended Jimmy Kimmel's show in response.
That just about sums it up briefly.
