 I get as peeved at Disney as anyone. You gotta wait 7 years to buy a movie if you don't get it the first time. They screw up history. Their anti-scandal contracts are unrealistically Draconian and wind up causing more harm and tabloid drivel than if they'd just not bothered. They overcharge. They're too exclusive. They bought the Muppets and pushed them downhill a little. They donated to Trump's campaign fund.

No one can replace Disney, though. Their imagineering and happy endings are sorely needed in this world. I mean really, Victor Hugo wrote 'The Hunchback Of Notre Dame' so depressing, Disney could only have improved it. Hugo had them hang the damn GOAT. Even the GOAT came to a bad end. A little unreality was a big improvement and helped with a central message of tolerance.

Not so with Republicans. The more unrealistic THEY get, the more awful and intolerant everything they're connected to becomes. They shut down Disney's tax bill and added it to the citizens of Florida.

Florida man (and woman) now owe taxes for Disney. Disney WAS  going to pay the bill. Not anymore! Republican governor DeSantis would rather try to control messages Disney puts out than treat his own state well.

Treating people badly is just par for the course for Republicans in charge though. It's what they do. They have brought so much ruin to me and mine and my country that I just don't see how anyone wants them. I'm baffled at the notion that anyone other than those receiving kickbacks, blackmail threats, and / or brainwashing can vote for them. How stupid IS half our nation? Differing opinions exist between experts. The IQ of Americans averages ten points below the worldwide population.

Shelob, that doesn't even sound stupid enough to explain what I'm seeing in the news. [exits]
