    How dystopian everything has become that the mega-corporation is the good guy. Lesser of two evils and all that but what a world.

    After they stomp out meatball Ron we can go back to hating on them I guess.

    Welcome to the real world. That is how it always is.

    We must be in different worlds because Disney is still the bad guy regardless of DeSantis.

    DeSantis's retaliation against Disney came from the mouse refusing to bow to Florida's discriminatory LGBTQ practices.

    Sometimes in the real world two bad people fight each other and one is less bad in that given scenario.

    Life is more complicated than that. Disney does some good things and some bad things. Calling a thing bad or good is a kindergarten level simplification of the situation.

    regardless of your opinion of disney, this is a complete and total violation of the 1st amendment, and Disney has the money to fight back. If this happened to a mom and pop shop, they wouldn't have the money to take on DeSantis' goons, and would lead to way too much precedent of giving the government control over corporations, just like your daddy figure China.

    So yeah, I can see why you'd enjoy this and not want Disney to win.

    LOL! I tried to have this conversation with my four year old the other day. He's been so adamant about labeling everyone either a good guy or a bad guy. This is so hilariously on point.

    He needs a good parent to explain to him how complicated the world is. It is going to blow his mind when he finds out that MLK Jr. was misogynistic and Ghandi hated gay people but they both still did good work in the world in other ways.

    My mind would be blown if such figures weren't juxtaposed to make a point. Least of all one on imperfection that doesn't need to be made.

    I think it says more about how deeply fucking hated Ron DeSantis is. He dug this grave. It didn't help his cause that his retaliation was incredibly transparent and deeply fucking dumb.

    If it wasn't both blatantly retaliatory and an obvious presidential campaign ploy, he probably wouldn't be looking so bad. Even his legislature hates him. Clear case of overplaying your hand.

    Certainly, I just find it bland to see yesterday's scoundrel turned today's great hope.

    Let's see how that works out for him. Narrow field is pretty wide open.

    You find it bland to see yesterdays scoundrel turned into todays great hope because you don't understand how the world works. There was no scoundrel or great hope only reactions to actions and situations.

    I like that you read zoobernut's comment and thought he meant Disney was the good guys, and not that he was more or less agreeing with the latter half of your post.

    Man you gotta take a break from BG if you've gotten to the point that you think every post that includes you is someone trying to have an argument with you

    I'm not arguing that give-and-take isn't a fundamental reality of life. Fucking obviously it is.
