Correction. We lost because we got cheated. I appreciate your concern. Experiencing so many people denying the evidence and refusing even to consider it is psychologically exhausting and an insidious form of emotional abuse. How can one awaken the unconscious folks to their gaslighting tactics? How does one respond to the intentionally malicious tacticians? "Eye for an eye, tooth for tooth?" ...Great, the world will be blind and toothless. Can retribution be had? ...Seems unlikely.

The CIA, etc are not random Joe's... like wrestling coaches... they hold a position of power and respect...

Imagine if high school wrestling coaches signed and published a public letter about a top wrestling recruit. "Chad has a bad attitude, bad effort, and is a bad teammate. To say otherwise has the earmarks of disinformation." Evil. ^^^ Good looks like this.

When there are no alternative foods... ...its better to be the Lab than the Cat

It is an evidence-supported belief that some of the 51 signatories knowingly lied. On July 17, 2023, the House Judiciary Committee and Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government conducted a transcribed interview of Laura Dehmlow, the Section Chief of the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force (FITF). During her transcribed interview, Dehmlow revealed that the same FBI personnel who were warning social media companies about a potential Russian “hack and leak” operation in the run-up to the 2020 election knew that the laptop belonging to Hunter Biden was not Russian disinformation. https://judiciary.house.gov/media/press-releases/testimony-reveals-fbi-employees-who-warned-social-media-companies-about-hack Michael Morell is a former deputy director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and one of the 51 signatories of the public statement. He says Secretary Blinken (senior advisor to the Biden campaign) influenced Morell to organize and write the public statement Morell intended to help VP Biden win because he wanted him to win https://judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/republicans-judiciary.house.gov/files/evo-media-document/2023-04-20-jdj-mt-to-blinken-re-public-statement-on-hunter-biden-emails_0.pdf The Bureau learned of the laptop in October 2019, the whistleblower, IRS supervisory agent Gary Shapley said, and just one month later verified its authenticity. The IRS was notified about the laptop in December 2019 and told that "it likely contained evidence of a tax crime," the whistleblower said. https://freebeacon.com/biden-administration/whistleblower-says-fbi-verified-authenticity-of-hunter-biden-laptop-in-november-2019/

Unclean meat is mentioned in the Torah, Old Testament, and the New Testament. The New Testament has interpretations that okays eating what was previously known as unclean. I’m not certain about the Quran rules… reading indicates it’s haram to eat monkeys. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_dietary_laws#cite_ref-34 FYI. The good book refers to Tevye from The Fiddler on the Roof. He says stuff that is and is not in the good book throughout the movie.

My bad. I'm poking at religious conservatives where one could be greatly disgusted or not at all with eating monkey brains. As the good book says, monkeys are unclean as they lack split hooves and do not eat cud. But also as the good book says, do not call anything impure that God has made clean... and the good book says get your quiver and bow and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me.

I knew it!

Conservative or not? Does he eat monkey brains? I dunno... Did he refer to the monkey as unclean? Did he hunt and self-prepare the monkey?

He says it... "Disney, Walmart, IBMs, and the others in the advertising boycott are acting like hooligans in a gang fight."

Yes. $105 million dollars of Disney debt instruments will mature as scheduled and will not be replaced. (likely bonds) Bad leadership isn't good for the stock either... which South Carolina State Treasurer Curtis Loftis signaled by saying the market cap is half what it was.

$130 is reasonable price target if one assumes the share price returns to pre-covid due to profits from streaming and pent up travel demand. EPS was $3.53 in March 2019 which boosted the price from $110 to $130. EPS was -.39 to +.02 when the streaming subscriber count increased and stock price soared to $200 in 2021. This is when everyone had free cash and was day trading. EPS was -0.25 in August 2023 and +0.14 in Nov 2023 with the price $78 to $92. Disney has lost $11 billion on streaming since 2019 and lost subscribers recently before the X drama partly due to content and cost. Pre-Covid, Disney EPS was last down to +0.15 in 2003 with a share price of $20. The share holder equity is about 3x higher since 2009.... My avg is < $90 and I would have bought 10x more shares in the $60s. DIS will mint gold again when they get out of their own way. I'm slightly bearish in 2024 on Disney and would sell if it was at $110. Am not holding too much to worry about much range... and holding long term is fine if needed.

Longer form. https://www.foxbusiness.com/video/6342484421112

Disney can say what it wants, it can spend how it wants. Like consequences for what is said, there are consequences for why Disney pulled advertisements from X. SC can spend how it wants. Others can react to why SC was divested in Disney by picking a different treasurer. I salute SC's reasoning... but I suspect there is more to the story. I own 210 shares of Disney stock and still pay for the Disney streaming service. The only reason I haven't divested yet is because I may further paper profit when they pull their head from ass. Disney can support freedom of speech AND support ESG without angering their consumers. "Princess and the Frog" is great. Is Disney so stupid as to self-sabotage making "Not Snow White and The Not 7 Dwarves?" Or are activists forcing the race bending?

Perception Reality

Eh Wha? ^^^ The people criticize Disney for their reasoning on how they spend their money. Is SC also divesting from the analysis that Disney's stock will decrease? If Disney is like Harvard, the sentiment is...

...says the TDS infected whose avatar is incompetent, egotistical, boorish, vain, cowardly, sexist, short-sighted, makes catastrophic mistakes, and whose victories are against comically weak opponents or achieved through the deliberate disregard for solder's safety. "I Am A Man With No Name. Zapp Brannigan, At Your Service."

I'm the dad who topped off his eldest's ice cream with mustard and laughed when she tried to eat it. My FIL tricks his grandchildren that wasabi is guacamole. Fun times.

Ugh. I'm with you there... but you should have seen her face after she stepped barefoot on an earthworm... and that time she accidentally took a sip from an acquaintance's glass of soda! Desantis would put ketchup on vanilla ice cream and laugh when Christie eats it.

How are you not strongly disgusted by Christie? You seem like the type of guy that eats a snickers bar with a knife and fork. Christie is a faceplant feaster. Only a person bothered to hear someone clear a throat full of mucus would criticize Vivek.
