Disney now in the business of wokeness

When you wish upon a star and you're the Disney Corporation, the star you're wishing for is the big one on Communist China's flag. A company that used to be in the business of children's entertainment is now in the business of "Newspeak," from "1984" or in a more modern term."wokeness."

Recently leaked internal documents obtained by Chris Rufo of City Journal reveal that the company appears to be pushing hard left, striving for a crazy level of angry wokeness. And if you have kids, or ever was a kid in your early life, this should disturb you bigly.

Rufo revealed the information on Friday in "The Wokest Place on Earth."

Starting in 2020, Disney executives have elevated the Marxist ideology of critical race theory into a new corporate dogma, bombarded employees with trainings on “systemic racism,” “white privilege,” “white fragility,” and “white saviors,” and launched racially segregated “affinity groups” at the company’s headquarters. 

Tomorrow?

They call this communist crap "Reimagine Tomorrow," an umbrella term having to do with "training modules" an indoctrination program that could have easily been written by China's dictator Xi.

Rufo writes:

I have obtained a trove of whistleblower documents related to Disney’s “diversity and inclusion” program, called “Reimagine Tomorrow,” which paints a disturbing picture of the company’s embrace of racial politics. Multiple Disney employees, who requested anonymity out of fear of reprisals, told me that the Reimagine Tomorrow program, though perhaps noble in intent, has become deeply politicized and engulfed parts of the company in racial conflict.

The core of Disney’s racial program is a series of training modules on “antiracism.” In one, called “Allyship for Race Consciousness,” the company tells employees that they must “take ownership of educating [themselves] about structural anti-Black racism” and that they should “not rely on [their] Black colleagues to educate [them],” because it is “emotionally taxing.” The United States, the document claims, has a “long history of systemic racism and transphobia,” and white employees, in particular, must “work through feelings of guilt, shame, and defensiveness to understand what is beneath them and what needs to be healed.” Disney recommends that employees atone by “challeng[ing] colorblind ideologies and rhetoric” such as “All Lives Matter” and “I don’t see color”; they must “listen with empathy [to] Black colleagues” and must “not question or debate Black colleagues’ lived experience.”

You've probably heard the term "equity" kicked around by the left as a replacement for "equality." The fact is, equity and equality cannot coexist. The Asian applicants to Harvard University can attest to that--Black students who didn't score as high as they did were given priority in the admission protocol.

In another Disney module, called “What Can I Do About Racism?,” employees are told that they should reject “equality,” with a focus on “equal treatment and access to opportunities,” and instead strive for “equity,” with a focus on “the equality of outcome.” The training also includes a series of lessons on “implicit biases,” “microaggressions,” and “becoming an antiracist.” 

Microaggression is a term that sounds like "Newspeak," a word previously mentioned that comes from George Orwell's "1984." Microaggression is an artificial term, invented in such a way so that it cannot be measured but is conveniently used to attack anyone whose rhetoric goes against the woke culture.

An antiracist is another newspeak term in which a White person who claims to be an antiracist must admit to being a racist. If you don't admit that you're a racist that's only because you're a worse racist. It's a form of virtue signaling developed by Robin Deangelo, a White race grifter and it's a divisive piece of crap.

The company tells employees that they must “reflect” on America’s “racist infrastructure” and “think carefully about whether or not your wealth, income, treatment by the criminal justice system, employment, access to housing, health care, political power, and education might be different if you were of a different race.”

So where is our "racist infrastructure" actually located? What companies have implicit or explicit racist structures? We have laws in America to criminalize racism--if you know of a company that practices racism, turn the bastards in.

Equity requires equal outcome regardless of skill level, intelligence or effort. Equality requires that every individual has the same opportunity to succeed based on the same criteria. Naturally, some people are born into better circumstances, but over time, a person with drive and intellect can succeed--just consider Dr. Ben Carson or Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) for examples of people who were born poor but through hard work achieved remarkable success.

The examples given above are only a fraction of the leftist insanity Disney is advocating. Read Rufo's exposé and see for yourself just how left Disney has gone, comrades.
