lol.
i know I have like never heard of corporations getting involved in politics until now. Especially not Disney. I can foresee some dark future where something is not done where Disney does something like have copyright law changed so they can hold on to their IP. I shudder at the thought of those days; somebody better do something.
We'd better have the government interfere with free enterprise to stop the wokeness... what could be more conservative than that? i guess being pro-free market means dictating what policies companies can have.
But go ahead on ranting about socialism. It's your move. Conservative principles on full display here.
I'm taking a mental snapshot of all of this. You're supporting heavier intervention in the economy than me and I'm a card-carrying socialist. It really is too funny. I'd never support passing a law to control what Disney does in some stupid princess movie. I guess I'm not enough of a real man to take woke Disney princesses as a serious threat.
Companies have been lobbying since the beginning of companies.
What companies haven't done, especially large multinational ones attempting to sell to the entire American public, is wade into our culture wars.
At least not until recently.
I'd like to act like you didn't understand this very simple gist of what I was getting at, but my capacity for sarcasm is sadly finite.
If you think Free market maximalism is where conservatives are these days then, I don't know what to tell ya. The times they are a changin'.
Why deny ourselves the weapon of gov't when it has been so usefully used by our foes for decades?
Those espousing such a self neutering notion, our loveable loser beltway GOP types, have been relegated to "conservative" columns in legacy cathedral media and talking head posts on CNN etc.
Which is, I suspect, why you intone that I'm "
No True Scotsman" unless I hew to their view.
How better to combat my preference for a level playing field, than to suggest I'm not a real football player unless I side with a team that accepts they're not allowed to bring a quarterback on the field.
A state of affairs that has benefitted the left mightily these last 100 years.
So no I wont shackle myself to a system designed to defeat me because you would prefer I do so.
I, and my cohorts, will use every weapon at our disposal to win. And we wont care about what you have to say about it. No matter how vehemently you think your values make you right and us evil.
So enjoy the game, because it's always fun to be in the stands.
