But to be fair R. Kelly is being accused of pretty awful crimes which I don't see an equivalent from Disney...

Perhaps not in depth of harm but in breadth it far surpasses R. Kelly.
Disney has been accused of gross labor and environmental violations across the globe. So while R. Kelly has caused severe damage to a few, Disney has caused minor to moderate damage to a great number.

OK. I don't know if everyone would agree with your somewhat reductive view on Disney, how is it fair to compare an entire company and enterprise to a single man. This feels like you are looking at two wildly different things and connecting them with very thin lines.

Speaking in terms of the fans, a fan of Disney who loves their parks and merchandise is accepting the misdeeds of the enterprise as a whole in much the same way that an R. Kelly fan is accepting his misdeeds.
I'm not stating that a fan of a franchise, like Marvel Comics, specifically is accepting of Disney's scope of misdeeds or even considering them a Disney fan in this case. I'm speaking directly to the Disney fan, those people who specifically travel to Disney parks multiple times a year, go on the cruises repeated, and consume the Disney branded merchandise in volume.

Then maybe companies and enterprises shouldn't do all they can to be treated like men...
