A fantasy land designed for children is promoting an agenda that culminates in preying on children? Who could have seen that!?
But for real, Disney has made their agenda known. They should receive zero dollars from concerned citizens regardless of voting pattern.

June 2013. My wife and I took our sons (7 and 4 at the time) to Disneyworld. We got to Magic Kingdom early as we had early entrance for staying in a Disney resort. We were with two other families with similar aged kiddos. I was standing with our stuff while the moms were getting organized and a plane flew overhead pulling a banner that said "Parents beware, it's Gay Day at Disneyworld". I kind of had a WTF moment then looked down on that massive parking lot and noticed that the busses were dumping out literally hundreds, no thousands, of people wearing mostly red or blue t-shirts.
Spare you most of the details. What happened after that was one of most f'd up things I have ever witnessed in my life. I simply could not believe that adults would swarm a place that is by design for kids and families, dressed as they were and acting the way they did. The shirts alone were atrocious. It could never have entered my brain that I would have my seven year old son ask me what was meant by a picture of a burger with an arrow pointing to the meat patty and the caption "I would like to be there" was supposed to mean. Or the personalized shirts with phone numbers and what to text for certain sex acts. And even worse.
Shortly after noon, after riding Splash Mountain, I took my young sons to use the bathroom under said attraction. The bathroom was filled with gay men and the stalls in the back were packed with groups of men and you could clearly see their phones held up high filming "whatever" was going on in the stall. I stood behind my sons while they peed then marched them out and declared to our group we were leaving.
I'm not intending this post to paint all gays with a broad brush. I had a stack of fast passes for Space Mountain and we were leaving so I walked up to a group of what were nicely dressed, clean cut, but clearly gay men (they looked like FBI agents lol) and gave them our passes since we were leaving. They were cool and a couple apologized for all the bullsh** they were well aware was going on. Peace out.
Anyway, can't deny the lasting impact it had on my wife and I and of course our sons. Worst public behavior I have ever seen but I'll never get over how so many adults could so brazenly conduct themselves as such at place meant for kids, parents, and families to make memories.
i started out pretty typical christian conservative on the issue, moved a little more libertarian over the last 10 years or so.
then i got to be around a few people and befriend some that live a hedonistic lifestyle with gratuitous sex and were very open about it. i'd be disgusted at a hetero male or woman speaking or acting the same way. one of my coworkers started feeling a little too loose and talked about how much he loves giving fellatio to whoever. He also asked me about the spread of monkeypox (he really had no idea) and didn't like my answer and reported me to HR.
i am not under the impression that it's the norm for the majority of gay people. i'm certain it's not because i know some guys who have a great marriage and have been monogamous since college.
that being said, i was wrong and the slope was slippery. i'm now pretty fascist about it.
