Disney billed itself as the “Happiest Place on Earth.” Now it has opted to become the Wokest Place on Earth. Once seen as quintessentially American, it has plunged headlong into explicitly anti-American ideology.

Christopher Rufo reports:

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

Anonymous whistleblowers have provided Rufo with documents related to “Reimagine Tomorrow,” a campaign to impose an anti-American and in particular anti-Caucasian ideology on everyone who works for this massively influential corporation.

The core of Disney’s racial program is a series of training modules on “antiracism.” In one module, 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.”

Believing that people should be judged by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin is something to atone for, according to Disney’s woke overlords.

In another module, employees are instructed that they must reject the concept of equality and embrace equity, just as the federal government has done under Biden’s handlers. This means rejecting individual liberty in favor of the totalitarian control necessary to guarantee that everyone gets what the government believes they deserve according to their identity group.

America is denounced for having a “racist infrastructure.” As we have learned from Biden’s latest looting spree, “infrastructure” means whatever leftists want it to mean. So does the word “racist.”

Disney’s “21-Day Racial Equity and Social Justice Challenge” program demonizes whites, men, and heterosexuals for the political crime of having “privilege.” The concept of “white fragility” is utilized to ridicule Caucasians who defend themselves. Saying, “I was taught to treat everyone the same” is presented as an example of white fragility. The woke understand that only racists treat everyone the same; antiracists are reverent toward blacks and despise whites.

“Individualism” and “timeliness” are denounced as “white dominant” values that “perpetuate white supremacy culture” and therefore must be rejected.

Employees are encouraged to brainwash their young children with toxic race propaganda, to oppose funding for police, to support Black Lives Matter maniacs, and to “decolonize” their bookshelves — i.e., stop reading books written by white people.

Disney has created racially segregated “affinity groups” for blacks (called Wakanda), Latinos (called Hola), and Asians (called Compass). To suggest that whites might also have an affinity group would probably result in instant termination.

Multiple Disney employees told me the political environment at the company has intensified in recent months. There are “almost daily memos, suggested readings, panels, and seminars that [are] all centered around antiracism,” said one employee. The company is “completely ideologically one-sided” and conservative and Christian employees are actively discouraged from expressing their views.

Gina Carano can tell you what happens to those who express opinions not compliant with leftist ideology.

This fanatical devotion to moonbattery has already affected Disney’s cultural output:

Content managers have modified and added “content advisories” to films such as Dumbo, Aladdin, and Fantasia, which, according to an internal video that I have obtained, executives have denounced as “racist content.” In the same video, Executive Chairman Bob Iger pledged that the company “should be taking a stand” on political controversies and no longer “shy away from politics” in the future.

Anything produced by Disney should be regarded as leftist propaganda. Alarmingly, impressionable children will be the most obvious casualties. However, no one exposed to the mainstream media/entertainment establishment will escape. Disney owns ABC, ESPN, Touchstone Pictures, Marvel, Lucasfilm, Walt Disney Pictures, Hollywood Records, Walt Disney Animation Studios, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, 20th Century Studios, and Searchlight Pictures, among other operations in a position to excrete moonbattery directly into the cultural bloodstream.

No matter how powerful Disney is now, it will pay a price for its hostility toward its own audience. Similarly iconic Coca-Cola also recently went whole hog with hard left politics, and has already begun to regret it. America isn’t dead yet. Those who pile dirt on its premature grave will face backlash
