Excellent points from you and the person you responded to. I’d still argue that a minimum effort - maximum effect action of canceling subscrptions is still a lot better than just ”hopes and prayers”.
As pompous as this may sound I do think subscription cancellation is an awesome protest tool that might, in best case scenario, affect Disney’s future business decisions. Maybe they won’t hire Alex Jones or make a musical animation about how great Hitler was if they’re afraid that their bottom line will be hit hard.
But yeah, we’re living in a timeline where Indiana Jones punching a nazi is a hate crime so the bar for things to be happy about is veeeeery low.
I think this all started when Disney DARED to do the unthinkable and put a light saber in the hands of a Black actor for about 2mins. On top of that Disney RUINED EVERY CHILDHOOD EVER by making a female the main protagonist of the SW sequels. That was a bridge too far for the cheeto dust covered sad bois who were living with their parents at age 42, and the rest is history.
