Go read an analyst report and educate yourself for once.

 

 

Does that analysis that the chicken posted from December 2022 take into account the losses from this summers blockbuster season?

Do you idiots really think DeSaster has control over DISNEY WORLD - a private company?

 

The only control DeSaster has is with the new control board he put in place that maintains roads, etc.

 

The policy change applies to the district, which is largely funded by taxes levied on Disney and which functions something like a county government for the park, overseeing permitting, planning and services including fire protection, road maintenance and emergency medical responses.

 

Disney World Corporation still has DEI, ESG, and so on...

Let’s see.  Since you posted an article behind a paywall bc you know no one will see it……

 

Disney District, Now Under DeSantIs, ENDS ITS DEI PROGRAMS.

 

 

Well……..who controlled that oversight before DeSantis declared Florida is where woke comes to die?

 

Hmmm…..IT WAS DISNEY!  But no more:

 

 

The oversight district, which was created earlierthis year following a row between DeSantis and Disney, is managed by five DeSantis appointees. It replaced a Walt Disney Company-controlled county district, which was dismantled after Disney opposed DeSantis’s anti-LGBTQ+ policies.

 

In a press release the Central Florida tourism oversight district criticized its predecessor for introducing “minority/women business enterprise and disadvantaged business enterprise programs”. The district did not respond to a request for comment.

 

Glenton Gilzean, the district administrator, said:

 

“The so-called diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives were advanced during the tenure of the previous board and they were illegal and simply un-American. Our district will no longer participate in any attempt to divide us by race or advance the notion that we are not created equal.”

That proves nothing. That guy who posted that is way too woke to have credibility. That picture could have been taken 2 hours beforehand or afterwards. And probably was. 

 

That's full on propaganda and if you truly believe any of that crap you see on Twitter then you're an idiot

Let’s go!

 

 

Florida eyes "classical" education agenda
 

Florida could become the first state to offer a conservative-backed "classical" exam in lieu of the SAT and ACT for public college admissions.

 

Why it matters: The state's education measures have been a Republican bellwether nationally— driven by Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who is seeking the Republican nomination in the 2024 presidential election.

 

The classical education model — not to be confused with "classics" or "classical humanities" — focuses on a return to "core values" and the "centrality of the Western tradition." It's gained recent momentum in Florida charter schools and private Christian schools.

 

The Classical Learning Test launched in 2015 and is used by homeschooling families and co-op groups, according to its website. Over 200 colleges and universities, many religious, accept its scores.

 

The test contains three sections: verbal reasoning, grammar and writing, and quantitative reasoning. 

 

State of play: The Florida Board of Governors is expected to vote on the Classical Learning Test on Aug. 30, Altony Lee III, a spokesperson for the board, told Axios.

 

If adopted by the board, universities could start accepting classical test scores for the 2023-24 admissions cycle, Lee said.

In May, DeSantis signed a bill into law that allowed students to use classical test scores to determine eligibility for a statewide college scholarship program.

 

DeSantis and the Florida Department of Education did not respond to requests for comment.

 

Critics say that the emphasis on Western civilization in classical education centers white Europe and America as most important, per the Tampa Bay Times.

 

So-called "classical education is really a wolf in sheep's clothing," said Julian Vasquez Heilig, a professor of educational leadership, research and technology at Western Michigan University.

 

"Really what it's about is using selective Western thinkers to foment a specific moral ideology," he added.

 

The intrigue: Classical education is largely pioneered by Hillsdale College, a small, Christian, classical liberal arts college in Michigan. This school has helped DeSantis reshape Florida education, the Miami Herald reported.

 

Five schools in Florida are "member schools"of Hillsdale College — more than in any other state, according to its website.

They receive curriculum, consultation and training; others are designated as "candidate member" or "curriculum" schools.

 

Hillsdale influenced the state's decision to reject math textbooks that delved into critical race theory and social emotional learning.
