‘Way out of their lane’: Leaked video from new Disney show should have parents of young children concerned

June 30, 2022 | | Print Article

A new children’s cartoon comedy series that premiered on Disney+ this week is drawing intense scrutiny because it contains blatant references to transgender ideology.

A small clip from “Baymax!” obtained and released by Christopher Rufo of the Manhattan Institute shows a robot in a grocery store asking a woman which menstrual product to purchase.

The woman replies by recommending some tampons. Another woman then chimes in by recommending pads.

Then, and more troublingly, what appears to be a transgender man wearing a shirt featuring the so-called transgender flag pipes up to reveal a preference for pads with “wings.”

Watch the back-and-forth exchange below:

The clip has prompted many questions. Why would a robot need a menstrual product? Why is a children’s program talking about menstruation? Why does a children’s cartoon contain the transgender flag? Etc.

See some of the questions posed by critics below:

The answer, of course, is already known: Disney has a vested interest in promoting transgender ideology to children. Their top executives have admitted as much.

As previously reported during the spring, a number of Disney executives were seen in leaked videos from a company-wide virtual meeting talking about purposefully “adding queerness” to the network’s shows and productions.

In fact, Disney general entertainment president Karey Burke, whose children identify as transgender and pansexual, vowed that by the end of the year, at least half of all future Disney characters would either be LGBT or racial minorities.

The executives were apparently not joking, because Disney has gone increasingly “woke” as the months have passed, with one of its latest “woke” actions — prior to the premiere of “Baymax!” — being the lesbian kiss in the film “Lightyear.”

The kiss was reportedly re-added at the last minute because of complaints from Disney’s notorious LGBT employees.

In a letter written in protest of Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill, the LGBT employees reportedly ripped the company’s executives both for not taking a firmer stance against the bill and also for allegedly censoring “overtly gay affection.”

This, in turn, led to the lesbian kiss in “Lightyear” being reinstated.

“According to a source close to the production, Pixar’s next feature film, ‘Lightyear’ — starring Chris Evans as the putative real-life inspiration for the ‘Toy Story’ character Buzz Lightyear — does feature a significant female character, Hawthorne (voiced by Uzo Aduba), who is in a meaningful relationship with another woman,” Variety magazine reported at the time.

“While the fact of that relationship was never in question at the studio, a kiss between the characters had been cut from the film. Following the uproar surrounding the Pixar employees’ statement and Disney CEO Bob Chapek’s handling of the ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill, however, the kiss was reinstated into the movie last week.”

“Don’t Say Gay” is a smear used by the left to impugn the Parental Rights in Education bill. To be clear, the bill has nothing whatsoever to do with saying or not saying the word “gay.”

Disney recently doubled down on “woke” by vowing to pay for any employee living and working in a pro-life state to travel to a pro-abortion state. In response, some critics warned that Disney was making a risky move that could potentially backfire.

“This is yet another attempt by Disney to take a political stance that will inevitably alienate potential customers,” one critic, Florida congressional candidate and Orlando resort management employee Jose Castillo told the New York Post.

“As we have seen in recent months Disney’s political activism has hurt the company financially and it is my belief that the Board of Directors is violating its fiduciary duty to shareholders by continuing to comment on divisive political matters,” he added.
