1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

It does not even make sense for Disney to be anti-DEI if their target audience is the entire world!
Unfortunately the Trump admin want them to behave a certain way, and anything different is seen as them being mean, apparently.
Looking forward to that "Failing Disney and nasty, perverted Mickey Mouse, going around in shorts" post on Truth Social. If there's one corporation that might even take Donnie down it's Disney. Kinda like Kong vs Dumbzilla
How does that follow? Do you think most of the world is pro-DEI?
I think they mean that, by definition, the entire world is diverse
Humanity is diverse, but there is a tendency to hate on those different to us, since time immemorial.
From my perception, people do not necessarily hate others who are different, but hates it when there are "too many foreigners".
anti-DEI is pretty much code for "only white straight cisgendered males welcome". Whatever criticisms may make sense against select DEI initiatives, the anti-DEI move by the government basically involved erasing all acknowledgement of any minority or woman ever being honored for accomplishments, no matter how obviously well earned the honor was.
On a global perspective, the American flavor of "anti-DEI" panders to a relatively small group of folks at the expense of offending the vast majority of the world's population.
What does DEI mean in respect to Disney, does it just mean changing existing characters to their non-white equivalent?
Disney?
What movie was that, Inspector Gadget?
Ok, but how does this like vibe with a country like China, which demands that Disney and other western media companies censor LGBT things all the time?
Disney princesses are DEI. Why should they distance themselves from their most recognizable/successful marketing tactics?
