Disney’s claim to fame is creating entertaining fiction. Yet critics might now say the company is living a very unentertaining fiction: that Florida’s parental rights bill is “hateful,” as Joe Biden once put it — but Chinese Uyghur genocide isn’t even worthy of mention.

Fox News recently asked Disney “why it appears they are more vocal in speaking out on the DeSantis-backed bill than the literal genocide going on in China, and if the company would condemn the ethnic cleansing.”

The corporation was silent on that, too, not responding to Fox at all.

The Florida bill, HB 1557, which was signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis Monday, has been widely misrepresented. All it dictates, essentially, is that schools “may not encourage classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity in primary grade levels or in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students,” as it states on pages 3 and 4.

But while opponents almost universally epitomized the bill’s meaning as “Don’t Say Gay,” Disney’s attitude on China has been “Don’t say nay.”
