New damning footage of Disney executives speaking shows them vowing to target Generation Z and millennials with LGBT content, begging forgiveness from the LGBT community and promoting “gender affirmation procedures” for children.

The first piece of footage, reportedly recorded during a “Reimagine Tomorrow” forum held last month, shows Disney General Entertainment Content president Karey Burke — the same woman previously seen wanting to make half of all future Disney characters LGBT or racial minorities — talking openly about targeting Generation Z and millennials with LGBT-themed marketing content.

“When I was at Freeform [a TV channel owned by Disney], it was very much in the brand ethos of Freeform to be the tip of the spear when it comes to inclusion. And we … jumped up and down, we celebrated that, nobody stopped us and it felt great,” she says.

“In part, I think, nobody stopped us because we were targeting Gen Z and millennials. We were targeting a younger, I think, more open-minded, and now we know, as my son texted me this morning, ‘Gen Z is 30 to 40 percent queerer than the other generations, mom, so Disney better get with it.'”

Disney is currently focused on so-called “inclusion,” a left-wing concept that calls for heeding the concerns and feelings of everybody — except, it would appear, for enemies of the left.

The second piece of footage, also recorded during the “Reimagine Tomorrow” forum, shows Disney CEO Bob Chapek groveling to the LGBT community and promising to “be a better” so-called “ally.”

“By now I hope you’ve all read my most recent note in which I pledged to be a better ally for the LGBTQ+ community, apologized for not being the ally that you needed me to be and committed to ensuring that our company lives up to its values. I meant every word, and that’s what we’re here to talk about today. I know we have work to do, and that work starts with listening,” he says.

“I’ve read many emails that have been sent, spoken with LGBTQ+ employees and their allies, met with advocacy groups and convened my own leadership teams. And I’ve been taken by the honest, the openness and the urgency of their stories. I want you to know that your words have made a real impact on me. I understand that we’ve made mistakes and the pain that those mistakes have caused.”

“And I know that our silence wasn’t just about the bill in Florida but about every time an individual or institution that should have stood up for this community did not. I and the leadership team are determined to use this moment as a catalyst for more meaningful and lasting change,” the Disney CEO continues.

Last month Disney declared war on Florida over the Parental Rights in Education bill. The law specifically prohibits teachers from engaging in inappropriate discussions about sex/gender with all school kids, but particularly those in third grade or under.

Yet despite the noble intent of the bill, it’s come under heavy assault from the far-left and their allies both in the press and America’s major institutions, including Disney, because of the LGBT community’s concerns that it won’t allow gay teachers to tell their students about their love lives.

The third piece of footage shows an unidentified Disney employee announcing — while touting all that the company is doing “to ensure that our employees and cast can express their gender here authentically and proudly at the company” — that “gender affirmation procedures” for children are included in the company’s benefits package.

“Coming up with guides on how to change your photo, information about pronouns, working with our benefits team to give information about gender affirmation procedures, both for our employees who are transitioning and trans, but also our employees who have kids who are transitioning,” he says.

The fourth piece of footage shows another unnamed employee who identifies as “black, queer, and trans” saying how “holding the company accountable means unpacking my own pain.”

Listen:

The fifth and final piece of footage shows Disney executive producer Latoya Raveneau, a so-called “bi-romantic asexual,” admitting that she wants to “use my content” at Disney to indoctrinate children with information about “the pockets of the LGBTQ community that you don’t see.”
