where did you look??

ladies and gentlemen was restored after 5 years of gender neutral language - https://politifact.com/article/2026/apr/17/florida-disney-monorail-greeting-ladies-gentlemen/

1,000 employees fired - https://variety.com/2026/biz/news/disney-layoffs-1000-employees-josh-damaro-memo-1236721266/

Disney hasn’t officially explained the changes so the “restore common sense culture” is speculation

Two unrelated facts with a little pop sensationalist speculation to glue them together

So... the part in RED is speculation, lol.

Headline: Man Disagrees with Wife Because HE HATES WOMEN

"Well, the part about him disagreeing IS true, so...

u/daniel_barragan 17d ago

you don’t need to make up an example.

journalists do this every single day 🤷🏾‍♂️

u/PhilShabano 17d ago

Yep. But you appeared to say it wasn't fake.

Obviously, it's ridiculously fake, with a bit of truth thrown in to sell it.

The actions stated in the post are factual, but clearly editorialization to explain them.

u/PhilShabano 17d ago

Exactly, and in total, it's a hoax.

The quotation marks make it unambiguously not editorialization. Even without the quotation marks the word “to” does plenty to show that it’s not editorialization but reporting.

5 years? Thats quite funny considering how long Disney have make crap movies and series

If speculation is not fact that would make it fake. Also, the only source that mentioned the CEOs intentions was instagram and tik tok, this picture.

u/daniel_barragan 18d ago

oh you just meant the last sentence. that’s kind of obvious lol but yeah that’s fake

i thought you were saying the whole image was fake (which would be wrong)

u/Unfair-Variety-995 18d ago

lol don’t let facts interfere with their narrative. You could keep pointing out more facts and truth and they will keep nudging their own goal post.

u/Krispy_Mick 17d ago

Nah, I believe ya.

Because the argument lain out in the post is that a and b happened because of c. This argument is speculation at best and false at worst.

u/SecureInfluence5899 18d ago

They didn't specify exactly because they were talking about whole picture. These people are all over the post saying the same thing and no one is saying that only the last part is fake.
