Another day, another attempt by The Walt Disney Company to promote questionable moral values to your children.
Last year Disney’s Television Animation’s Latoya Raveneau admitted Disney had fully embraced her “not-at-all-secret gay agenda” in children’s programming, specifically on The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder.
Raveneau’s comments came during a Reimagine Tomorrow conference hosted by The Walt Disney Company following the company’s revelation that they would campaign against a bill preventing the teaching of sexual orientation and gender identity to children in kindergarten through third grade in the state of Florida.
She said, “In my little pocket of Proud Family Disney TVA, the showrunners were super welcoming. Meredith Roberts and our leadership over there has been so welcoming to my not-at-all-secret gay agenda.”
“Maybe it was that way in the past, but I guess something must have happened in the last, they are turning it around, they’re going hard, and then like all that momentum that I felt, that sense of ‘I don’t have to be afraid to have these two characters kiss in the background.’ I was just, wherever I could, just basically adding queerness. If you see anything queer in the show — no one would stop me, and no one was trying to stop me,” she added.

The company has since turned up it’s LGBTQ outreach targeted at kids to an 11.
Going to war with the state of Florida wasn’t enough for Disney, the company recently announced they would continue their LGBTQ push in their theme parks with the announcement of a ‘Pride Night’ for all ages at Disneyland in California.
Last week, Disney announced its “Disneyland After Dark: Pride Nite” event will take place on June 13 and 15.
In a blog post promoting the event, Disney Parks revealed the event will feature a Pride-themed parade featuring Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and their friends dressed in “special attire.”
They also noted that you could “Join Stitch at the Ohana Dance Party at Tomorrowland Terrace, where a DJ will be spinning great tunes with joyful energy at a dance party that celebrates ‘ohana’ – family!
The event will cost $139 per person for those ages three and up.
It should come as no surprise that The Walt Disney Company would double down on attempting to indoctrinate children with gender and sexual ideology.
Former CEO Bob Chapek made it abundantly clear last year that the company would work to indoctrinate and groom children in these heinous ideologies regardless of laws preventing them from pushing it through the public education system.
In an email sent to Disney employees before the company publicly positioned itself against the bill, Chapek wrote, “Because this struggle is much bigger than any one bill in any one state, I believe the best way for our company to bring about lasting change is through the inspiring content we produce, the welcoming culture we create, and the diverse community organizations we support.
He continued, “There’s a reason content is at the top of this list. For nearly a century, our company’s stories have opened minds, inspired dreams, shown the world both as it is and how we wish it could be, and now more than ever before, represent the incredible diversity of our society.”
“We are telling important stories, raising voices, and I believe, changing hearts and minds,” he added.
He went on to state, “Powerful content that changes hearts and minds only springs from inclusive cultures, which not only attract and retain the best and most diverse talent, but also give those employees the freedom to bring forth ideas that reflect their lives and experiences.”
“We must work together to ensure Disney always remains such a place,” he asserted.
Chapek would eventually be ousted from the company and his predecessor Bob Iger would return to replace him. Iger made it abundantly clear that he would not be changing the company’s position on this issue and made it clear he would be doubling down on it during a town hall for Disney employees.
When asked if the company would stay out of making political statements, which was clearly a reference to the company’s stance on the Florida bill, now law, Iger said, “I think there’s a misperception here about what politics is. I think that some of the subjects that have proven to be ‘controversial’ as it relates to Disney have been branded political, and I don’t necessarily believe they are.”
“I don’t think that when you are telling stories and attempting to be a good citizen of the world, that that’s political,” he affirmed. “It’s just not how I view it.”

When specifically asked about the bill that is now Florida law, Iger said, “Well, first of all, our LGBTQ employees are very important to us and we care deeply about them.”
“That is a given,” he declared. “Secondly, this company has been telling stories for a hundred years, and those stories have had a meaningful, positive impact on the world. And one of the reasons that they’ve had a meaningful, positive impact is one of our core values is inclusion, acceptance, and tolerance. And we can’t lose that. We just can’t lose that.”
In response to the so-called “Don’t Say Gay” legislation, Iger said Disney would still promote “inclusion,” but suggested that the company must strike a “delicate balance” and “listen to [its] audience” and “have respect for the people that [it’s] serving.” This is a retreat. pic.twitter.com/bZBnQdm616

More recently at the company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders Iger made it clear the company would indeed continue to be engaged on political issues, albeit the issue of gender and sexual orientation ideology is really a moral issue.
Nevertheless, he said, “I don’t think we should or can weigh in on every issue,” he continued. “And I also understand that there are going to be gray areas. There are going to be times when we decide to weigh on an issue that we believe is worthy of debate because of its relevance and importance to our business or to our employees. And there are times when I actually believe we shouldn’t.”
But I strongly feel that we alone have to determine whether when or how to weigh in on an issue whether it’s private or public,” Iger declared.
“Of course, with the standard that when we take a position on those matters, there’s a true reason why we have and in almost all cases it has to be because it directly affects our business or our people,” he explained.
It was not long ago that Disney was seen as the home for family friendly entertainment. Many people in the LGBTQ community looked down on Disney for it’s family-friendly and traditional image.
Now that Disney has become the outspoken ally for all these radical activists that want to harm children and society at-large on multiple levels the company is rapidly losing ground with families. Rival studios such as Universal are currently leading the early race for the domestic US box office by nearly $600 million with the success of The Super Mario Bros movie.
Meanwhile, Disney continues to struggle at the box office. Deadline reports the company lost $106 million with last year’s Lightyear film. Lightyear was not an exception. Strange World lost nearly $200 million, and Amsterdam lost $108 million.
Disney remains committed to these LGBTQ activists despite the massive box office losses. Clearly, the messages and perversions they are pushing is worth the millions of dollars in losses.
