Part 5/7:
Woke Culture in Entertainment: The Wane of Woke Disney
The conversation shifts towards the entertainment sector as Travis critiques Disney, specifically their woke initiatives. He questions the rationale behind adding trigger warnings to classic films, labeling it a sign of the “woke virus” losing its grip. He notes that both Disney and Nike have seen stagnant or declining stock prices that coincided with their adoption of woke policies.
“Disney failures in nurturing their franchises are obvious,” he states, suggesting a need for a return to creative excellence rather than catering to the sensationalism of modern social issues.
