The LGBTQAI2S+ Disney celebration coincides with Walt Disney Co.’s promotion of gay and transgender ideology in its content aimed at children.
In internal videos leaked last April, Disney creatives were exposed openly discussing plans to incorporate more gay, transgender and “gender-nonconforming” characters in its children’s programs and their commitment to creating more “queer stories.”
Disney employees are seen discussing the company’s openly “gay agenda” during an “all-hands” meeting, in videos published by journalist Christopher F. Rufo.

Disney’s Diversity and Inclusion Manager Vivia Ware instructs employees to ditch the words “ladies, gentleman, boys and girls” in its theme parks to prevent alienation of transgender kids, in another video.

Disney corporate president Karey Burke declared in another video that she intends to see at least 50 percent of Disney’s characters in the future identify as LGBT or a racial minority.

In the past year, Disney has created multiple transgender characters in its cartoons and made gay characters a focal point of its big-budget movies.
Its animated Disney+series Baymax features a transgender “man” who menstruates” and gives advice on which maxi pad to buy — “the one with wings.”
EXCLUSIVE: I’ve obtained leaked video from Disney’s upcoming show “Baymax,” which promotes the transgender flag and the idea that men can have periods to children as young as two years old.
It’s all part of Disney’s plan to re-engineer the discourse around kids and sexuality. pic.twitter.com/y1ATnKCEce
