-
Jill M (@Jill_Marjeta) reported@TheDCLBlog It wasn't immigration issues, it was child p*rn. CBP boarded 5 ships including the Disney ship. 28 people were arrested for this.
-
1st Roboeconomist, Church of the pointed finger (@climatebabes) reportedAll crew working with kids should be double checked for history with them. I guess its again a result of capitalism, minimizing wages, thus thinning the pool of applicants for jobs, which lowers the quality of those hired and makes us end up with ****'s on a Disney cruise ship.

Erica Lopez (@IceQueenLopez_0) reported@Saliu_ade @Rightanglenews She sucked worst Disney movie ever
-
Sheronda Washington ✨ (@Sheronda_saysx) reported@LeDirectInfo Disney spent $170 million and now need somebodys jaw to be the problem. Okay.

MmandoMmech (@mmandommech) reported@ScottGustin Didn’t they try that with Genie+? The problem is that Disney made everything require using your phone. Want to eat? Mobile order. Want a fast pass? Here, pay for a lightning lane. It’s all overly complicated as it is. If they would stop overfilling the parks, half of the problems this is supposed to solve would disappear.

ZTB (@zachary_t_bravo) reported@girdley @RegZeller Same as Nike, same as Disney. Not complicated. Woke and decreasing value of product quality. Cultural and economic reasons in a competitive market.
-
Byl Holte (@SirBylHolte) reported@vincentdonofrio @Daredevil The only "bad" is how awful the show is, and the only "***" is you for allowing Disney to cuck you with that wife of yours. Hope the payday was worth it.
-
Inga Bateman (@Gatorswimma) reported@AngelaBelcamino It isn’t the Floridians. It is all the foreign tourists! We had 143.1 MILLION tourists in 2025 alone! Record number! Traffic is the worst in tourist areas. I-4 corridor between Disney and Tampa has highest fatalities in US
-
HiramHawk (@HiramHawk) reported@nypost @bergi1954 Disney should be fined $100,000 for every illegal alien. This might help with the deficit.
-
MmandoMmech (@mmandommech) reported@SunnylandProds I was gonna ask why it can’t be both. Disney did no favors to the franchise with the sequels, but Obi Wan and Ahsoka were quality. Actually really enjoyed Maul also. There is hope for the franchise still.
-
Mary Elle (@prettypatriotCA) reportedWow, I feel terrible for all the parents who felt safe trusting the Disney brand while they vacationed.
-
Matthew 🇨🇦 ✡️ (@MattC1143) reported@KenMathis @GeeksGamersCom Just to be clear, I detest the sequel trilogy as well. If Disney does "get rid of it" then how does Luke, Han and Leia storyline continue after ROTJ/The Mandalorian timeline? With Carrie passed away and Harrison won't do anymore Star Wars films then it means new actors. How does that work?
-
Brizz (@Brizz1983) reported@JustinVestinCC @supergeekmike @ClawMachine84 I agree, I was so mad after watching the Last Jedi. By far the worst Star Wars movie. I have no idea what the hell Disney was thinking with this one.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@MS_On_This @street99fight2 The viral post claims Disney is offering Johnny Depp ~$301 million (about ¥46.6 billion) + an apology to return as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean. Background: During his legal issues, Disney dropped him from the franchise. Depp famously said he wouldn't come back "even for $300 million." Now the studio is reportedly desperate because the series is struggling without him, so they're adding $1M on top as a cheeky "we're sorry" gesture. Fans are hyped but split—many want Jack back, others say he should stick to his pride. Important: This is an unconfirmed rumor that's been recycled since 2022. Depp's team has denied it before, and there's no official statement from Disney or Depp. It's not verified news.

Swashbucklist (@Swashbucklist) reported@YuGoOhniShi @GeeksGamersCom I still can't help but wonder if he was threatened by Disney. Not with anything crazy, but with straightforward facts. They have insane money, and could easily invade his privacy, his family's privacy, deprive him or his family of security, make them targets for the lefty mob...
-
Elle (@Elle0govnr) reportedWell look at this! @Disney @DisneyCruise employing staff like this on your cruise ships? Why do they all want to work for Disney? It’s unsettling & gross.
-
𝐏 𝐎 𝐒 𝐓 (@postboxpat) reportedI do want to add Disney can detect Suspicious Activity. And if a login seems suspicious they may send a one-time code to your email. But still no 2fa and thats my concern. While not standard, some users have reported the ability to activate 2FA through Disney+ Help Center chat support if they express concerns about security, though this is not officially documented as a standard feature for all users. If you are concerned, ensure you use a unique, strong password for your Disney account.

Bawse (@BawseRegime) reported@starwars @DisneyPlus Help me understand how there’s a whole episode where Vader doesn’t say anything?
-
Scott Sanders (@TheDCLBlog) reportedDisney Cruise ships (like the Magic) are Bahamian-flagged, not US-flagged. US employment laws don’t apply to them. This is standard across the entire cruise industry — every major line hires international crew this way. It’s completely legal under maritime law. The ICE/CBP arrests are most likely about individual immigration issues (common at US ports), not Disney breaking hiring rules. The article also mentions crew detained from another cruise line. Individual cases ≠ company wrongdoing.

rv3greed (@rv3greed) reported@uniquemoviemom Disney buys the franchise.. first movie comes out makes it about a “female bad ***”.. makes Luke a coward.. just awful three movies
-
CowpokeU🤠🏴☠️ (@cowpoke_u) reported@CSOonX I'll reiterate the already mentioned problem but Disney.
-
Paul Sims (@SimslearnAi) reportedWhat subscriptions should you NOT be paying for? [2026 updated list] From best → worst value: D (Still worth it) • Spotify • Amazon Prime • YouTube Premium • Google One C (Decent / optional) • Netflix • HBO Max • Disney+ • Apple Music B (Easy to overpay for) ↓↓

Roscoeteer (@RoscoeTheRev) reported@Disney has a serious problem with TDS. Jimmy Kimmel, The View, and now Mark Hamel? We h as t is wrong with them!
-
L. Of Borg (@LocutosAwakened) reported@OpossumsVa @AwakenedOutlaw I think Disney would have to pay A LOT more to lower level staff to make the rigorous background checks worth it. Otherwise they’d be understaffed. Think about it, why would anyone be ok with invasive screening just to get hired to be a janitor, line cook, etc? Folks would just not apply there and work somewhere else for the same pay. Disney would have to make the benefits outweigh the inconvenience. If they already do background checks they probably are just very basic.

James McIntyre (@JamesMcInt58853) reported@Fynnderella1 Being a victim of this type of abuse, I know how these folks operate. They are almost always the ones you'd least suspect. The same applies for where they work, like Disney, Churches, Schools, etc. that are a cover and puts them in close proximity to children. The **** that preyed on me, and others, was not a family member, but a icon at the Church. There is no help for these people, an honest one will tell you that they can't be fixed, so the only way to deal with them is to give them the death penalty. The best advice I can give parents is, be aware with your children, teach them how to see the signs of predators and have them tell you everything that happens if they're outside of you care (School, friends, other family, etc.). If you have concerns about what your children are saying, or behavior changes, feel free to ask me what I think.

🇺🇸The Hedonist🇺🇸 (@HedonismEnjoyer) reported@scoopulate @nonregemesse Anakin was gone by the end of ep6, and Sidious wasn't. He was both present and the main antagonist. I don't fault you for not watching Disney slop but it's hilarious that you're jerking your ****** about media literacy when you're getting your ankles broken in every reply
-
Mad Dog Matt (@MattWheato29729) reported@BrianNiemeier I would say keep Disney away from Star Wars at all costs and we good, except one tiny problem.... what hasn't Disney bought off?
-
Lawrence (@SeverusofPot01) reported@nypost @Disney @WaltDisneyCo is not a Family Company at all! They have RUINED this Company which every day we learn another disturbing aspect of behavior! They are So far LEFT/SO WOKE that they REFUSE to see the damage they have done to themselves! Disney is the WORST Woke US Company!
-
Master of Controversy ⚠️ (@THe0GAmer) reported@starwars @DisneyPlus A quiet recast of dryden vos plus a huge drop in animation quality after episode one maul barely drives his own slow filler
-
God's Fav Retard (@GodsFavRetard) reported@TheNicholasWolf Yes the problem with the prequel was that the people working on it loved Star Wars too much and didn’t give Lucas the creative tension he needed to push the trilogy to even greater heights. The Disney sequel had people who didn’t care enough to tell JJ to have a simple plan fr F
