What I'm seeing from companies, and what they're not saying out loud, is that they're okay with throwing away the long standing established audience for the doesn't go to shows, doesn't collect the toys, doesn't play the games crowd.

They want the old crowd disenfranchised and no longer watching, so they don't have to give them something good. The new crowd will pretend to like new product every time it's shown, and defend it from the criticism it rightfully gets for being a badly written skin color swap of an established franchise, just so that they don't lose the copyright name. (Little Mermaid for example was released in November of 89)

Because it's easier to put low to no effort into your work when you've got a crowd of emotion driven feel good nobodies who will pretend to like it so long as it's got 'the message'

I'm already seeing the third stage of 'how dare you attack multinational corporation' because we passed the how dare those trolls attack this, and then ugh the internet racists are at it again stage. And now they're doing the appeal to emotion bullshit of young girl sees a skin color that matches hers on screen and suddenly loves a thing she didn't care about at all or know it existed until just now because Disney owns everything and is very one note with the way it inundates you with product, media and merchandise until you can't stand it, then buries it for a decade or two, only to later reanimate it's corpse like they're doing now to see if they can do a round two.

The sooner they realize how much they've wasted on doing this, the better. No matter how giant a company is, losing millions and millions a year is not sustainable. Your new crowd doesn't care about it. They don't consume the media the way the old crowd did, and you're gonna learn this one painfully.

It’s a confluence of several different strategies from multiple actors.

The executives fall into two categories:

  1. incompetent and greedy

  2. ideologically possessed

The greedy ones purchase the IP as risk aversion; they want that established audience as a floor for viewership.

But these executives also want infinite growth potential, and that means aggressively expanding the audience.

The ideologically possessed executives have the solution: radically alter the product in order to appeal to the largest untapped market. And what is that market? Why it’s the people who didn’t like the product in the first place. So now the product becomes the antithesis of itself in order to attract viewers who originally hated it.

That predictably triggers a revolt among the established fan base, and this predictably enrages the greedy executives because they bought those fans fair and square. How dare they turn their backs on the IP that you radically altered in order to shamelessly chase another group of customers?

The ideologically possessed executives, once again, have the solution: tap the news media branch of the company to circulate stories that will brand everyone who is critical of your product as a bigot. This is easily done. After all, your news media branch has assembled a wholly leftist staff via selective hiring, and they were already chomping at the bit to attack your problematic customers.

This media smear campaign will have three effects:

  1. stop loss (because people don’t want to be associated with bigotry, even if it’s not true)

  2. a sales bump (because a minority of ideologically possessed customers will blindly support your product in raw political solidarity)

  3. protection of executive jobs (because lost sales are due to bigotry, not their own incompetence)

The linchpins of this whole operation are those leftist executives seeded throughout the company. They are the ones convincing the other suits to destroy IP and attack fans. Subversion and destruction are the true goals of these ideologues. They hide their mission under the guise of expanding markets and increasing profits. In reality, the leftists on the top floor don’t care if the company burns to the ground. Their first loyalty is to the revolution.

How did the leftist executives rise so fast and so high within these companies? Same reason it’s almost impossible to fire them: MeToo and DIE (Diversity, Inclusion, Equity). These movements are all about seizing power so that it can be wielded ruthlessly against the cultural and political opponents of leftism.

that pic is somewhat ironic, because Rob Reiner is now a hardcore TDS libtard.

The real sinister crime is that reversing the racism got this guy permanently banned from all social media by our woke big tech overlords

It sort of reads like they're getting money for something else, and want to make sure no one looks into it. So they rage bait stuff like this to distract us.

At last, her long- desired birthday came. The night before, Sirenetta could not sleep a wink. In the morning, her father called her and, stroking her long golden hair, slipped a lovely carved flower into her locks . . .
