Nothing is ever good enough for their holy litmus tests on whether or not you're a good person. If you're not in lockstep with their political opinion, then you're a disgrace. We can't just tolerate people with different opinions, oh no. We have to shun them out of our little echo chambers.

I am quite happy this board isn't an echo chamber. Mr. Chuck really does believe in what he preaches. Tolerance isn't reserved for those you agree with, but those you disagree with. At the end of the day, the rich get richer and the elites don't care for us, so why do they think anything we do makes a difference? It doesn't. So we are judged by how we treat our class peers, I think.

I mean, I dropped the whole debate with Ms. Carano, but one thing that supports my argument is that it's not just about removing a troubling employee, as they claim. If that was the case, why was a whole Cara Dune line of action figures dropped? So children who like Cara Dune can't have those action figures? What? It really is about ideology and I don't get why the SJWs feel happy these greedy companies pander to them. Seems all it takes is a little bit of lip service to get them on board to something they hate.

No, it's literal money in the bank. But the point is that it's a drop in the bucket to them now. They aim far higher, to push their agendas with how gargantuan they have become. Since these companies are now way too big to fail, and assuming they somehow went bankrupt, the government would just bail them out. That's how it always works in recent history.

It's about historical revision and influencing a whole generation of young people to think like them and to try and love what they do.

What other conclusions can be drawn when they're going for gold while narrowing the focus? That's an innately crippling philosophy, yet that's what they are doing. As I've said, the government simply will never let them fail. If they were to just once let one of these ginormous companies fail when they've earned it, then it would send a clear signal to the other uber corporations and maybe things would turn around.

The foreign markets and the government as well as the SJWs they pander to keep them in business, and if you're right-wing, they don't want you. I would never call these big corporations leftist, mind you. They aren't. But it is insulting to watch them pander to leftists because they don't care about them any more than the right wing.

They have control over practically anything, so they want more PC themes put into everything they do as a distraction so you don't see how bad they're plundering the nation and the world.

I've said before, I don't buy the Chinese people really are that way, and if so, it's due to the nonstop state tyranny over the information they have, so they can brainwash them.

But they want China so much since they're a bigger market than we are. They need that money. And maybe it's not that they're trying to get younger people to think the same way they are, so much as they're falling for the Chinese government's machinations - get them to self-incriminate to their own populace here.

Why else would Disney stop focusing so much on small fry when they're looking to bigger game? Enough small fries amount to a whole meal. And too many of these fringe lunatics who get hired for political reasons, because they agree with their bosses, admit they want to rewrite history.

It is largely generalizing, but I don't get why we can't let the past stand as it is. A lot of horrific things and a lot of great things happened. We helped people, and we hurt people. Why do we have to get so thin-skinned and lash out in today's world? It's not just calling our political opponents bigots. Look at how often something innocent that back in the '80s or '90s, going off all I hear from the preceding generations, would have meant nothing, gets twisted into pedophilia today?

I just don't understand the world I was born into, in all honesty. But that's everyone.
