Disney deleted a Thread because people kept putting anti-fascist quotes from its movies in the replies (www.theverge.com)

”Share a Disney quote that sums up how you’re feeling right now!”

That’s what Disney posted on Threads the other day, and people immediately replied with lines from Star Wars, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and even Mary Poppins. The throughline between all the quotes: they were pretty pointedly anti-fascist and clearly aimed at the current administration

I agree. That show was a very good insight into rich people and their mentality.

Even though it was hard to watch at times, it was worth the watch cause of the insight.

They truly live in their own bubble that ensures only like minded people stay there

Tap for spoiler

In fact the whole point of the show was how ruthless Logan was and that his children were stuck between a rock and a hard place. They could never leave that life cause they are so used to the luxury, although Connor gave a decent try.

They could also never be as ruthless since they had a decent amount of humanity left.

So even with all their money and luxury, they ended up feeling very unfulfilled and like a failure.
