(FreedomBeacon.com)- Last week, Disney employees in both California and Florida decided to stage a walkout over Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill that didn’t go exactly according to plan.
The all-day walkout was staged by Disney’s “LGBTQIA+ community and their allies” last Tuesday to protest the Florida legislation the media dishonestly labeled the “Don’t Say Gay” bill.
A whopping one Disney employee joined the walkout in Orlando, Florida. And the guy who turned up didn’t “walk out” because he wasn’t scheduled to work on Tuesday. He told the local NBC affiliate that he didn’t know how many Florida Disney employees were planning to participate since the walkout was broadly defined to mean “work from home,” “call out sick” or stay home from work.
The turnout was better in California, a state where the Parental Rights in Education bill does not apply.
One dishonest producer with CNBC tweeted that “hundreds of Disney employees” walked out of Disney’s Burbank headquarters. But in reality, according to the New York Times, only about 60 to 70 California Disney employees walked out while a “smattering” protested down the street. The Times wrote the Disney employees did manage to outnumber the press “at one point.”
When asked about the Disney protests, Governor DeSantis pointed out that while they have a right to protest, by doing so, they are “by definition” saying they’re in favor of sexual instruction for little children. He added that most people, especially parents in Florida, “think that’s wrong.”

But all the huffing and puffing from Disney and the American corporate news media was in vain.
On Monday, Governor DeSantis signed HB-1557 into law.
Today, I signed HB 1557, the Parental Rights in Education Act, into law.
It ensures parents can send their kids to kindergarten without gender ideology being injected into instruction and they will be notified and have the right to decline healthcare services offered at schools. pic.twitter.com/OLnW2GLrJl

Then on Tuesday, school choice advocate and CRT opponent Christopher Rufo posted videos from a recent Disney “all-hands-on-deck” Zoom meeting about the Florida Parental Rights in Education bill that exposed the Disney corporation’s “queer” and “trans” agenda.
The clips are shocking especially considering that Disney’s entertainment targets children.
Here are just a few of the videos Rufo posted:

SCOOP: Disney production coordinator Allen March says his team is committed to "exploring queer stories" and has created a "tracker" to make sure they are creating enough "gender nonconforming characters," "canonical trans characters," and "canonical bisexual characters." pic.twitter.com/ddSzw4aqQv
