the thing to understand is that for Disney it's not always about the money. they control so much power over all media that they can inflict their world view on everyone through their propaganda streams. the performative wokeness that still sits within overall metanarratives about the value of the status quo? that's for the dollar. cutting Jimmy Kimmel loose? that's in alignment with their core values

Cracker Barrel is named after the term for a restaurant that serves calorie dense food for a low price. it is, itself, a cracker barrel. you should mainly expect though southern us breakfast staples like pancakes, sausage, bacon, biscuits, and corn bread

they're scammers, the lot of them, running ponzi schemes with our money. if the planet dies for it, that's no concern of theirs. ponzi schemes require the schemer to have no long term plan, just a line of credit that they can keep drawing from until they skip town before the tax collector comes
