@OdeToJoy Thoughts?In its SEC filing, Disney ADMITTED: "We face risks relating to misalignment with public and consumer tastes and preferences for entertainment, travel and consumer products.... Further, consumers' perceptions of our position on matters of public interest, including our efforts to achieve certain of our environmental and social goals, often differ widely and present risks to our reputation and brands."
Thought: THINK TWICE (if you RELY on the Public for your success)... before you PI$$ on what THE PUBLIC thinks is important, and you USE the company to push YOUR AGENDA... BECAUSE, the People might just say "To HELL with THAT"... and make you DRINK your OWN PISS !!
Uh, no they aren't. They are LOSING MONEY like no one could imagine,****!! IF you think otherwise, then EXPLAIN THE MASSIVE layoffs and closing of MANY attractions at Disney Parks!!
Keep in mind, GROSS PROFITS are before ANY expenses are deducted and only show the revenue take in!!Disney gross profit for the twelve months ending September 30, 2023 was $24.267B, a 14.31% decline year-over-year. Disney annual gross profit for 2023 was $8.992B, a 68.25% decline from 2022.
Sucks for you that STUPID is your FIRST, MIDDLE, and LAST NAME, huh CUMBREATH???Iger announced a sweeping a cost-cutting strategy, with the first round of staff reductions begun March 27. The second wave, which brought Disney’s total to 4,000 cuts, hit the week of April 24, and the third and final concluded May 26.
The 7,000 layoffs — which represent 3.2% of Disney’s total headcount of about 220,000 worldwide as of Oct. 1, 2022 — are part of Disney’s efforts to achieve about $5.5 billion in cost savings. Of that, $2.5 billion represents “non-content costs” (including labor costs) and $1 billion of those targeted cost-reductions were already underway in February, Iger said. Disney is aiming for an annualized reduction of $3 billion in non-sports content costs, expected to be realized over the next several years.
You been fooled now isn't eternity for so long you will believe it went away when only franchised under a new ideology practicing the same deception with another center focus now isn't eternity.ConservativeWave » 06 Dec 2023, 12:45 pm » wrote: ↑ Disney recently admitted what every shareholder and reasonable observer has long known: Its activist strategy has negatively impacted its financial situation.

Translation: We FVUCKED UP when we went full-woke, including skewing Florida's common sense law to prevent teachers from discussing sexual or gender orientation with kindergartners as "Don't Say Gay" and implementing what one executive called a "not-at-all-secret gay agenda" into programming... AND, AMERICA MAY not let us FORGET IT !!

I will say this... SINCE EVERYTHING we can see, and understand, ONLY comprises somewhere about 5% of the universe... and 95% is comprised of things we HAVEN'T even BEGUN to understand yet... AND... where the intelligent life we KNOW, has sprung from the 5%... It's possible that there is LIFE OUT THERE that exists... that WE can't even IMAGINE... and is as far above us... as we are above the amoeba !Nostradamus'omh » 08 Dec 2023, 7:15 am » wrote: ↑ You been fooled now isn't eternity for so long you will believe it went away when only franchised under a new ideology practicing the same deception with another center focus now isn't eternity.
Every reality never accepts genetics eternally separates the ancestors limited to only adapting as displaced forward one at a time now.
here is what I discovered that caused me to honor doubt more than respect natural time adapting as displaced is wrapped into history of your first paragraph.ConservativeWave » 10 Dec 2023, 4:54 pm » wrote: ↑ I will say this...

IF THAT is a reality... THEN EITHER we are irrelevant, and the life we KNOW is irrelevant... OR, we ARE the supreme beings in the universe in some form or fashion, and we will live on... OR, we are somewhere in between !
EITHER WAY... life as we KNOW it on this planet is LIMITED... ALL we can do is to live as WELL as we can, and when we DIE... MAKE peace with it ! AND MAYBE we are absorbed BACK into the COSMOS... where we live ON as sentient beings, in some NEW, and different, level of existence.... or we don't !
Me? I personally like to believe we ARE ETERNAL beings... who are CURRENTLY on a COSMIC roller coaster ride, where "life" as we KNOW it is the RIDE... WE live our lives, with all the trials and tribulations, ALL the dips and turns, we scream, and laugh, and cry... AND THEN, when the ride is over, and we die... we wake up in our REAL existence... our TRUE eternal selves... greeted by our friends... where we will TALK about how much FUN it was !
Hey... so WHAT'S the alternative? ...Eternal DARK, and NOTHINGNESS? ...ONE way or another... it IS our Future !!
