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...
