CitizenVectron Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Walt Disney Co. Poised To Lose Control Of Florida Theme Park Special District As Lawmakers Pass Bill For Ron DeSantis-Backed State Takeover DEADLINE.COM Florida's House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed a bill that will strip The Walt Disney Co. of control over special district. Some people like to think that this will hasten Disney's gradual exit of Florida, but I will bet they do the opposite and fall in line. There's nothing that corporations love more than fascism.

b_m_b_m_b_m Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Republicans are like 3 steps from “corporations have no rights except those given by government” but they’re too cucked by capital to go that far even rhetorically. very clearly a political move but I don’t care.

TwinIon Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I haven't really been following this. I'm guessing that this plan to take control of the special district is a replacement for disastrous plan to get rid of it? I don't really have a problem with Disney spending their own money to improve the area around them. I also don't have a problem with them not really controlling that area. The only real issue here is that this is so clearly retaliation for Disney saying something the Governor didn't like. It's not even clear to me what they might do with control of the area. Decide that maybe the roads shouldn't be so nice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, what’s the point of constantly complaining about free speech if you can’t use the government to punish people for things they’ve said?? 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CitizenVectron Posted February 28, 2023 Author Share Posted February 28, 2023 Well yeah, the end run of all of this fascism-lite is fascism, where conservative politicians start making new state-approved guidelines for entertainment, news, etc. They are pretty transparent about it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reputator Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Florida is the sacrificial lamb for sinking DeSantis' presidential hopes. Every new low he sinks to is just more ammunition to show how extreme he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I've been seeing that. Looks like Fox News is cooling on him too and they were one of his major backers. This guy is fucking dangerous.
