There was no such thing as “Don’t Say Gay”

Liars and hypocrites.

lol. Corporations are all hypocrites. Disney would host a Klan rally if it was profitable.

The left always renames bills they don’t like.

Just like they do with language:
Legal term - illegal alien
Media - immigrant (no regard to legal or illegal)

Orwellian by practice.

Disney today is a WOKE cesspool of degenerates !

What has that got to do with Disney now building a park where it's illegal to be gay?

the problem with this is youre trying to treat leftists like they have any principles. their opinion shifts to whatever is politically expedient for them.

Greedy degenerates

This article is rage bait. And it’s working!

I strongly believe this to be true. For many people money determines their morality.

I'm utterly shocked that a company would choose to only have morals when it's profitable

The next move should be to build one in Palestine. They could make it illegal to be gay and Jewish. They could book trips from American universities.

Good idea?

100%!! That article is designed to get people fired up vs objective journalism.

You’re combining unrelated topics with sarcastic fabrications as if that proves something. The Them.us article is a breakdown of the DeSantis vs. Disney situation in Florida—about state retaliation for political speech. That’s the issue I was addressing.

The Variety article you linked says nothing about Disney saying “we hate gays,” nor does it quote “Sheik Abanona” making death threats. That’s not in the article because it didn’t happen—you’re just making stuff up to stir outrage.

If you’re serious about journalism vs. commentary, start by not spreading fake quotes. Then we can talk.

I think this is a better less bias understanding of the matter.

I would say more that the left has a larger variety of individuals that fight with each other about any one topic. Creating a more diverse culture of something. The right is more unified in their hate and vitriol for things they refuse to try and understand.

Except. They were. The quote I referenced was right in the article. What I messed up was who said it. I apologized and you can’t let up. Now you’re just gaslighting and trying to bullying me.

Don’t you have a job or something?

@HappyLez you are obsessed with Disney. I'm curious your thoughts


A few years ago, the Walt Disney Company threw a tantrum over Florida’s inaccurately nicknamed “Don’t Say Gay” law that bolstered parental rights in education.

Now, the entertainment behemoth is building its first new theme park in 15 years in — wait for it — Abu Dhabi, a city where homosexuality is illegal.
.

All the more reason they need to stop preaching their politics.

Money talks and BS walks

A corporation goes the way that leads to more money 😱

Here is a source quoting Sheik Abanona as saying "they hate gays and will kill them on site.
And it quotes Disney as saying -" we are doing it for the cash but we hate gays"

Why not just say the left is morally and intellectually superior.

Isn't that "settled science"

Oh nacho1. The The supreme leader of SOH and all that is holy great. I supremely apologize from the bottom of my worthless shoes. I am not worthy of your greats and utter likeness. Please do not look up upon me as I am worthless to your greatness.

How’s that? Is does that rub your ego into ecstasy?

Yes yes, because say it with me now:

Disney is a business who cares more about money than principles.

It’s business. Money talks as they say.

Yet it may be true for most corporations. The larger they are, the more dissolved their collective morality.

In the little research I did, it is apparent, that area is in somewhat of a cultural change. Who knows where this goes. I admit, on the surface it does not appear to be a Disney destination.

Both.

You also have no understanding of what to do when people put resources that are unneeded in places like science that’s trying to prove what shape the Earth is. Or graphs that have clearly been proven over and over again to be true. You would rather keep sinking resources into “pretty much settled” science. When there is always active experiments trying to disprove any science. Which is why other scientists need to use phrases like “it’s pretty much settled science”. Which is the whole thing we’ve been ducking arguing about for a goddamn week shut the duck up and move on with your goddang life. That much is “settled objective.” you think you’ve proven something here but all you’ve proven is your narcissistic stubbornness. Congratulations have the day you deserve.

Did you read the source and see the byline - "News and Commentary"

Do you understand the difference between "objective journalism" and "commentary"?

Is this meant to be "commentary"

I have proven that you make "mistakes" and refuse to own up to them and that science is never settled - see Pluto and Newton.

“Why not just say the left is morally and intellectually superior.”

You said it not me. “Settled Science” needs to be put into context. Is it “all but settled science” referring to us putting more research on how to fix a problem instead of debating if the same results that keep coming up are actually true? Then yes it’s all but settled science.

I always have the day I deserve - three times you said that.
You must have a lot of days you don't deserve and feel like some magic force creates havoc for you.

Canyou point out the paragraph and the sentence location for the quote you attributed to the fraud Mann in either of the sources you posted.

Where is it in the AP report
Where is it in the Yale story

"The quote I referenced was right in the article"

Is that a true statement / please show me the line # and paragraph #

To a lefty - asking a lefty to take ownership of a lie is bullying.

Science is never settled; scientists are constantly finding new data and revising old assumptions. In addition, scientists themselves are human and can even have some pretty big flaws.


Scientific theories change all the time
In the 1970's, scientists predicted global cooling. In the 1990's and 2000's it was global warming, in the 2010's there's again talk of cooling.

For centuries, gastric (stomach) ulcers were thought to be due to stress, spicy foods and excess stomach acid, until 1984, when Australian physician Barry Marshall drank a culture of Helicobacter pylorii and developed stomach ulcers from the bacteria alone.
Newton, Einstein and Hawking have each had the final word in the field of Physics -- at least until the next run of the Large Hadron Collider.
No human could survive transonic speeds... until Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier; no human could survive the radiation of space... until the Soviet and American astronauts spent days in orbit in the 1960's; no human could survive the passage through or space outside the Van Allen radiation belts... until the Apollo moon missions.

Yes I am "nachoing"

Asking a lefty to own up to a lie they were caught making.

How awful - we should just let everyone lie and not own it.
They would make SOH better right.

Naomi Oreskes: Well, I wouldn’t really say I was inspired to do it. I would say it was more like I tripped over something that I realized was important.

When I first started doing this work nearly 25 years ago, my goal was to investigate the relationship between scientific knowledge and funding. I was specifically looking at the impact of U.S. military funding on oceanography because oceanography went from being an extremely underfunded science in the early 20th century to being a very abundantly funded science when the U.S. Navy realized that better oceanographic information could help them do their job better.

The pesticide DDT was used to kill mosquitoes, particularly in regions of the world prone to malaria. However, it was proven that DDT to cause the shells of bird eggs to become thinner, thus endangering many species if DDT use continued... until it was determined that the report amount of thinning was actually smaller than the margin of error for the measuring instruments of the time.
Human memory is mystical and metaphysical, with no connection between the mind and the brain... until it was demonstrated that memory is associated with specific anatomical areas of the brain... and then it was discovered that trained flatworms could be ground up, and molecules extracted and fed to other flatworms who then had the "memory" without the need to learn... except that memory requires specific patterns of anatomical connections, and chemical and electrical signals... until it was found last year that some memories may actually consist of molecules that can be inherited!

In the process of doing that research, I stumbled across the story of a group of oceanographers talking about the threat of human-made climate change from burning fossil fuels. I learned that these scientists had a pretty good grasp of this problem. Even in 1958, they already understood that when we burn fossil fuels, we put greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and those gases heat the atmosphere, and it was extremely likely that in the fullness of time, burning fossil fuels would lead to global climate change.


Oreskes: If we’re asking people to support policy action, or asking people to make changes in their own lives, then I think they have a right to demand that the basis for that should be very solid in exchange. We shouldn’t be asking people to make big changes or spend money on solar panels or whatever it is if we aren’t sure what’s going on is well understood.

So I think it’s very important for the American people to understand that this really is settled science. We know that the Earth is warming because of human activities as well as we know that there’s gravity, as well as we know that DNA carries hereditary information. This is very well-established science.
