About

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis aspires to be the same kind of Autocrat despised by the founders of the United States. He must be exposed for what he is: a great threat to our Democratic Republic and American values. Republicans don't punish big businesses like the Walt Disney Company for disagreeing with them. Fascists do. DeSantis and those like him are a massive threat to our Democracy.

  5. No Spam, Threats, Harassment or Doxing of any kind.

"I hope they both lose" no I hope Disney mops the fucking floor with DeSantis, Disney is evil and needs to be broken up into at minimum 5 different companies but DeSantis is doing fascism to eradicate queer people. One of these things is far more urgent than the other.

Disney v. Florida GOP is the best example of the enemy of my enemy since probably WW2

[–] Poggervania@kbin.social 14 points 2 years ago

Yup. In this scenario, Disney is the lesser of two evils - it’s scary af that a corporation can have this much power in the first place, but when you have literal fascism as the alternative… I’d be happy with the Big Mouse being able to do this kind of shit.

If I was to make a list of companies you don't want to fuck with, the mouse would be by FAR at the top of that list. Their lawyers are ruthless and won't back down until victory.

Desantis just showing how big of a pussy he is after he decides to start a war with Disney

You don't get to shove the big guy at the bar to show off, then say "hey let's just leave this behind us".

Sucks for the citizens of Florida that get to foot the bill for the #GOP 's misgovernance.

[–] cooljacob204@kbin.social 11 points 2 years ago

They voted for that.

[–] eestileib@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 years ago

You get what you vote for, and many Floridians chose to stay home.

Remember the fash always turns out, but they're in the minority.

Got to admit, it's been fun watching DeSantis get chewed up and spit out by the Mouse/Disney. What a pansy. Blows my mind that he even got elected in Florida.

Tell me you've never been to Florida without telling me you've never been to Florida.

He's exactly their kind of people. Especially central Florida.

But yeah, what kind of idiot goes up against the mouse's legal team.

The Mantis quivers...hope the mouse bleeds him dry
