What happens when a woke corporation (Disney) tries to push homosexuality in children’s movies?

Parents push back, and the movie becomes a “box-office bomb.”

That’s what happened recently with Pixar Animation’s (owned by The Walt Disney Company) most recent children’s movie, Lightyear, which hit theaters nationwide on June 17.

A movie is generally considered a “box-office bomb” when a major studio releases a supposedly highly anticipated and expensive film, which then fails upon release and becomes a net loss for the studio.

To date, Lightyear has grossed $158 million in movie theaters worldwide, of which $94 million is domestic earnings.

That may sound like a lot, but the Walt Disney Co. spent $200 million to produce the film – and that doesn’t even include tens of millions more spent in print and advertising costs.

Now, consider that production companies usually garner around half of the revenue earned at the box office, with the other half going to the theater companies. So, if a movie grosses $200 million at the box office, the production company will receive $100 million.

In the wake of Friday’s historic reversal of Roe at the Supreme Court, it didn’t take long for abortion activists to begin peddling their propaganda. On social media, at concerts and at rallies and protests, versions of the following warnings and charges began trending:

“So many women and girls are going to die.”

“Women will be beaten and abused.”

“Children are going to be neglected and ignored.”

“Democracy as we know it is over.”

“The Supreme Court is now illegitimate.”

One wonders if those who says these types of things know they’re trading in lies – or are they simply ignorant of the truth, blinded and bolstered by decades of misinformation?
It’s likely a bit of both.

“For wicked and deceitful mouths are opened against me, speaking against me with lying tongues,” wrote the Psalmist. “They encircle me with words of hate, and attack me without cause. In return for my love they accuse me, but I give myself to prayer” (109:2-4).

The prophet Jeremiah likened the tongue to a deadly arrow that can speak deceitfully (9:8), and the apostle Paul warned against “wicked deception” (2 Thessalonians 2:10).

The administration of George Washington University (GWU) in Washington, D.C., stood up for principle and rejected demands from its leftist students to cancel the teaching contract of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, who is a guest lecturer at its law school.

The latest student brouhaha erupted because of Justice Thomas’ concurring opinion in the Dobbs case overturning Roe v. Wade, in which he questioned the court’s continuing use of a doctrine known as “substantive due process,” a vehicle the court has used over the decades to enshrine so-called “unenumerated rights” into the Constitution.

Such rights, according to the doctrine as it developed in the court’s caselaw, must be “deeply rooted in this nation’s history and tradition,” and “implicit in the concept of ordered liberty.”

In other words, has this “right” been around a long time and does our “liberty” require it?

Since at least 1905, the Supreme Court began using the notion of substantive due process to enshrine a variety of “rights” into the Constitution, including such things as the right to privacy, abortion, interracial marriage, same-sex sexual relations and same-sex “marriage,” even though they are not mentioned in the Constitution.

However, many legal scholars and judges consider substantive due process to be an oxymoron that has been imposed on the 5th and 14th amendments to justify judicial activism.
