America is feeling a cultural shift so strong that it could practically power the entire grid if we could harness the collective exasperation of parents everywhere. The latest headline? Disney—yes, that fantastical kingdom where fairytales and magic intertwine—has decided to yank a transgender character’s storyline from a new Pixar series. Apparently, a little voice in the boardroom finally reminded everyone that parents might want to break the news about unicorns and gender identities on their own timeline. Shocking, right? It’s almost like they realized that marketing brave new world concepts to kids might not be the goldmine they thought.
Now, sure, we all know that Disney has been strapping on its ideological roller skates, racing into the realm of the “woke.” It wasn’t so long ago that when Disney premiered their first openly gay character back in 2014—who knew that the simple act of adding two moms could lead to such chaos? Fast forward to the era of the drag queens hosting Pride extravaganzas for kiddos on Disney+, and voilà! It seems their interest in family-friendly content turned into a quest for an inclusive Disneyland that caters to the most vocal activist corners of the internet. Unfortunately, the marketplace seems to speak for itself when Americans have had enough of this shiny progressive nonsense.
Despite the fact that conservative commentators are finally growing a backbone to address these issues—though it took them longer than a sloth in molasses—the uproar was complex. In a strange twist of political theater, the likes of “Woke Disney” were challenged to reevaluate their rolodex of rainbows and pronouns. Simply put, the cowards have stopped being quiet, and the brand is feeling the heat all the way from Main Street U.S.A to the boardrooms of Anaheim. And while we’re at it, let’s not mention the upside-down world where a cartoon version of “Transformers” is now pushing pronouns that look like a game of Scrabble gone wrong.
But wait, there’s more! While Disney grapples with its identity crisis, we have Congress trotting in like the proverbial horse after the barn door has swung wide open. Gossip abounds of pay raises for our esteemed lawmakers in the middle of a spending bill discussion. Yes, you heard that right—every time Congress asks for a little more of your hard-earned tax dollars, they also dream of sprucing up their own salaries. It’s like asking the waiter to pour more wine while leaving a tip on the table—but the wine is our money, and the tip is somehow never quite deserved.
Meanwhile, enter the media clowns with their faces perpetually contorted in astonishment, asking why they’re seen as the bad guys. Well, let’s take a look at the gleeful frolics of TikTok’s latest prodigy, who got a VIP invite from the Biden administration for serving up a healthy dose of cringe. Meet Harry, the teenage TikTok sensation with a flair for embarrassing few-who-dare-to-be-called-his-fans content, riding the wave of cloying liberal cheerleading. Watching this is like “America’s Funniest Home Videos” for politics—except it’s not funny, and there are dire consequences if we let it continue.
As the Democrats triple down on their attempts to out-swoon the woke crowd, a reality check is long overdue. Their idea of “progress” has ballooned so massive that it veers dangerously close to absurd theater. With Hollywood stalwarts clinging to dated hashtags and campaigns, one can’t help but think that the cultural shift will widen the chasm between “normal” Americans and the bizarre circus of the left. So, as the new year looms, it’s safe to say that America is ready to dance once again, and the graceful choreography may very well involve kicking some serious woke nonsense to the curb. Mark your calendars, folks, it’s time to make America great again—one sane decision at a time!
