For some its the family business and they dont know anything else (JFK, Jeb Bush), for others they aren't super successful at anything in the private sector so they run for office (DeSantis, Obama, Hillary Clinton) Just to clarify, are you saying JFK was an introvert? 9 hours ago, The Frankish Reich said: I would guess that introverts actually dominate politics.

B-Man Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Disney’s “defiance” of Don’t Say Gay is nothing of the sort. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is now running for president, and it’s funny the number of people declaring he’s worse than Trump when the former president was “literally Hitler.” There are two things he’s known for—and blasted for in the media—in particular. One is the so-called “Don’t Say Gay” law and the other is his feud with Disney. The media has made a lot about both of those, and there’s no doubt they’ll be something he has to address in the coming months on the campaign trail. So imagine how excited when they got to write about Disney’s “Gay Days.” Tens of thousands of people flocked to “Gay Days” events in Disney in defiance of the theme park’s legal row with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ and his so-called “Don’t Say Gay” legal crackdown. A sea of red shirts — many emblazoned with “Say Gay” or “Don’t say DeSantis” — descended on Orlando from Saturday for the half-week of pool parties, rides and drag bingo to mark the start of Pride month. It was a clear stand against presidential nominee DeSantis, whose legislation and legal feud with Disney sparked LGBTQ+ rights organizations to issue travel warnings over the Sunshine State. Now, I love a good act of defiance. It’s a central theme in a lot of the fiction I enjoy and even a lot of my favorite historical moments, so I should be all up on this one. Except, they’re apparently defying what the media has billed the law as, not what it really is. The so-called Don’t Say Gay law simply mandates that discussions of sexuality need to be held off until it’s age appropriate. That’s pretty much it. It’s perfectly legal to say “gay” in Florida. Disney’s Gay Days have been held for years upon years and the law has absolutely no mechanism attempting to thwart such a thing. So, how are they defying the law when the law has nothing to do with their actions? The truth of the matter is that while there are grounds to criticize any law you care to name, we often see certain laws that shouldn’t be controversial framed like this. In this case, requiring discussions of gender and sexuality to wait until a child is a bit older is framed as no one being allowed to say “gay” or how constitutional carry, which only applies to law-abiding citizens, is framed as “criminal carry.” Then the media pretends normal events that have been going on for years are suddenly an act of defiance. Especially as the participants pretend they’re being oppressed by the law when they’re not. It’s all about framing things. Most people don’t actually read articles. They read headlines and pretend they understand what’s going on. These publications know it, too. I’ve had things I wrote have more shares than views in the past, after all, and that only happens if people aren’t reading the story in question. Don’t tell me they don’t know this is happening. What’s more, don’t tell me they don’t capitalize on it, either. Disney is doing what it’s doing. No one really cares, least of all Ron DeSantis least of all. But the media is going to try to make this a story even when they know damn good and well it’s not. https://tomknighton.substack.com/p/disneys-defiance-of-dont-say-gay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about the dangers of not only another 4 years of Joke and his declining mental abilities, but also what a shitshow Kamala taking over as President would be.

That is scary and most likely what would happen if the brain-dead vegetable wins re-election. I don't think he has 4 years left in general much less a second term. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
